I don't think it shows the majority of us are at odds with others.

There hasn't been a stasi enforcing the mitigation measures. Most people followed them voluntarily in consideration for their own safety and the safety of others.

The loudmouths, who desperately exaggerate everything so they can desperately draw attention to themselves with their whining and complaining, only make up a small percentage of our society. Unfortunately, they stillget the most public attention, because they screamingly demand it.

The oversized attention they get while desperately whining and complaining makes us seem more divided than most of us actually are.

If most of us thought and acted like the desperate, loudmouth whiners, none of the mitigation efforts would have been followed.

Most of us actually have pulled together as a community. Let's not let the desperate, whiny brats fool us into thinking otherwise.

I'm not normally this judgemental, but in this particular moment I've lost all tolerance for so called "adults" acting like 3 year olds.

Yeah, I tend to think most here want the same thing, a safe route back to opening up businesses and the economy, and I agree, most people are being good citizens trying to do the right thing and with the information available. Some make poor choices about where they get their news and information. But i think most understand the seriousness of the virus and are pretty sensible about protecting themselves, and by extension their families.

There is room for debate on how we phase the economy back in, and I think we all can agree it's gonna take time before we get to an economy without CV19 restrictions.

Good post.
