Social Justice Warriors - Now With Less Feminism Sperging

[Witthel]

Here's a tweet about the shutdown protestors.

On the above tweet, are they too stupid to realize that it isn't just workers that make up an economy and without those people they listed it'll go straight to shit?

Why am I even asking this? Of course they are.

Someone just sent me this pile of whining. "Drumpf ruined muh scifi book."

How were they ever able to enjoy Koontz to begin with? He inserts his politics about as much as King, but they're decidedly more conservative.

Has anyone told ZQ about this amazing logic that's being used by a former Democrat legislator to dismiss the Biden allegations? It might interfere with her story about her experiences with Alec Holowka.

The Democrats have gone full Incel.

He got your ass twice, you dummy.

Pretty much anytime I was actually bullied it was other girls. Boys would tease, but I don't remember any boy actually bullying a girl. Maybe it was a southern thing.

They will not abide by those who exploit the proletariat.

Or something. My Commiespeak is really rusty.

Why should people want to go back to work when the virus is still out there, FFS? Most business owners I know of don't want to shut down, they're taking huge economic pain, but they're still not going to open until they're sure it's safe - because you don't want to kill your fucking customers and employees.

(And in any case, even if they did open now, who the hell is going to want to come? Nobody's going to go out when there's a pandemic on! It'll kill their businesses outright.)

A lot of people are having a hard time staying home financially; a sizeable amount people rioting to go back to work are doing so because they literally cannot afford to keep missing paychecks. Of course, this is lost on people who live off tugboats and govbux and think that they're all just Karens who want haircuts.

Ironically, you know who's really suffering for money right now? Hairdressers.

That may be, and I sympathize, but I don't think they understand what would happen if they did go back to work.

Let's say you could open tomorrow, while the pandemic was still on. You need money to keep the business running and pay your employees. But are people going to shop at your store while they fear they could get infected? I doubt it. So you're not going to get a lot of customers, and even if you have takeout or Internet service or whatever, that's not going to cover everything.

If you open up and you don't get enough money to cover all your expenses, you're going to be out of business for good, and the people who are living paycheck to paycheck and want to go back to work won't have a job to go back to. There's a lot of people in my state running restaurants and the like who don't know how things will go if they do open up - because running at 50% capacity could be a death sentence for them.

They're having a hard time believing that the pandemic is as bad as the government claims when they undershot all of their predictions by powers of 10.

Most of the people begging to go back to work aren't business owners but individuals, people who have no hope and are (in Michigan and Virginia at least) being fucked over by their Dem governors and state troopers without any recourse.

That's because everyone decided to stay home and so we didn't enter into a worst-case scenario. Whenever you take a lot of effort to prevent the worst, then you're going to have people claiming we overreacted, just like Y2K.

Most people I know want to go back to work. But they don't want to die either.

 

[Shaka Brah]

The best-case-scenario predictions, if we entered a lockdown a month before we did, are higher by 10x than what we got. Something is definitely wrong about the models people were using.

Well, the models predicted we would top out at 60,000 deaths, and we just passed that...

 

[Dafuqisdis?]

No none of the models predicted that. That was an offhand comment by Fauci that was based on nothing.

 

[Shaka Brah]

The models predicted we would pass 1 million with a lockdown. 4 million or more without one. Whoever said that was blowing smoke up someone's ass.

Yes, people will shop. There will be less people shopping but that will probably be mitigated by the fact that a lot of businesses will still be shuttered.

Also, any place that is unsure of how things will go when they open up has the option to stay closed, so that isn't even an issue.

 

[Dafuqisdis?]

Well, they revised the models later to show 200,000 to 400,000 after the first ones proved to be spectacularly wrong, but none of the models can really be taken seriously at this point. The models that pretend to predict when states will reach their "peak "will also end up being dead wrong in the end I'm guessing.

So if there's less people shopping, that means less money coming in, and a lot of businesses will indeed be shuttered... for good, which is what most business owners want to avoid.

This is why I think people who want to go back to work now simply don't get it. You can't force people to shop when they think they're going to get infected.

No dude, you don't get it.

The shops that want to stay closed can stay closed, if they don't like the lay of the land that's their perogative. Their business will go to the shops that decide to open. I don't even know what you're arguing. Forcing all shops to be closed because some of them might not want to open immediately makes no sense. As foot traffic returns then more of them will open up.

People are going to go back to shopping, they've been shopping this whole time. Just not at Best Buy or the clothing store. It will take some time for things to return to normal, but you have to take the first steps.

When, pray tell, would you have it start? Right away, or at a time when there are few enough cases that it's safe to resume normal activity? If it's the latter, I'm fine with that.

If it's the former, well, there's still a pandemic on. Business was declining long before the stay-at-home orders came in, because people didn't want to get sick and die. How will this prospective business that decides to open ensure that they can pay their employees? How will they pay the rent? Will they be able to make enough money to do that? Will they be able to ensure that an outbreak doesn't occur at their place and leave them liable? And what about their inventory?

A business owner who can't answer any of those probably shouldn't reopen.

 

[Corn Flakes]

Guys, guys. I got called out for this sort of shit on another thread: we're not here to discuss the pandemic and quarantine or whatever, we're here to make fun of SJWs being massive sperglords. Take it somewhere else.

If they're only allowed to operate at a quarter capacity, it probably costs them almost as much in operating expenses as it would be to be fully open, but with a quarter the income. It's pretty unlikely anything that was already marginal can do that without losing more money than just by being closed.
