But I'd argue, that the people deciding on lockdowns or deciding on not lockdowns both made more qualified decisions than @Meltdown99 or Joe Rogan ever would.
Are the idiot politicians being overprotective? Maybe, but lockdowns is a better way to handle it then we do in the US.
I get that a mask mandate and temporarily halting large audiences might be better than lockdown....but something is better than nothing.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

Some places with tight restrictions at times.

I have sacrificed plenty, but my personal situation is not what's important here, nor is any anecdotal situation relevant. the greater good, is. I genuinely feel for people like your father; my own parents and parents in law are in a similar boat, as are many people who are of a similar age and demographic and are stuck in their homes, unable to do the simple things they enjoy that give them joy and purpose, which is hard to come by at an elevated age.
but in my opinion it's better to weather the storm in your home than die in it trying to act as if it doesn't exist.
do I agree with every order that's come down? of course not. some too harsh, some not harsh enough. there's been a lot of fuck ups in my province by our conservative government, but I'm not going to sit and here and claim the liberals or the NDP would have had some magic wand and done things infinitely better. everyone is making this up as they go along, on all sides.
my personal employment is irrelevant (and another attempt to get personal), and not sure why you assume I work for the government (hint: I don't), but your blind hatred of all things government is clouding your judgement on pretty much every issue I see you weigh in on. generalizations are never the truth.
I've said it once and I'll say it again so you can put your "trudeau cultist" bullshit to bed. am I disappointed in him? yep, on many issues. but is he better than o'tool would have been? yep. and jagmeet (or jughead, as you call him) had no chance of winning. I don't worship him, nor do I just blindly despise any politician. it's unhealthy, in my opinion. I try to find the good in what he's doing and if someone better comes along next election I'll vote accordingly.
if you want to keep holding on to one thing I said and keep claiming victory in every thread we cross paths in, be my guest. I didn't read your reply nor do I intend to. there's a reason I often don't engage with you and I think the reasons why are obvious to most people here. I just don't like engaging constant negativity and hatred. there's enough of that in the world.By The Time They Figure Out What Went Wrong, We'll Be Sitting On A Beach, Earning Twenty Percent.0 -

Wow, off the forum for a day, 168 new rogan comments.
Hopefully more musicians join Neil. This isn’t an attack on rogan as much as it’s an attack on Spotify. What rogan has said about vaccines is irresponsible and potentially dangerous, but how difficult would it be for Spotify to run a one minute PSA during his show explaining that roegan is not a doctor, not a virologist and not an educated speaker on vaccine efficacy? And maybe they can throw in a few links to CDC or other data about actual vaccine effectiveness. Had they done that perhaps this would have blown over, but they’d clearly rather enjoy the attention.
Thats the story here, this is where society breaks down, Alex Jones pushes media companies like Fox further away from truth and accuracy, which makes it easier for the spotifys of the world to become purveyors of potentially dangerous misinformation.0 -

Spotify just couldn't sluff it off. It's obviously tarnished the brand and put them in a tight spot.
It was never about how many plays Young got on Spotify. It was always about embarrassing them into doing the right thing.
I'm skeptical but hopeful they make real changes.0 -
mildly curious as to how rogaine will react. all this does though is put disclaimers on content.

Maybe if Rogan was genuinely curious like he acts he could have someone on who's intelligent and informed about Covid and the vaccines rather than a guest like Malone who is on some self-centered ego trip.

early on in the pandemic he had a professor from University of Minnesota? that guy was great. Rogan brought up shit he read doing his "research" and dude set him straight.
