Either way, if they did their part in flattening the curve like all of us were lead to believe was the goal, you and anybody else shaming them for moving on with their lives can go **** yourselves. You might as well shame people for driving, having unprotected sex, not practicing social distancing during flu season etc. It’s utterly ridiculous. |

If only there were things we did to limit car fatalities, like crumple zones, air bags, seat belts, speed limits, driving laws...

It’s been a few months. You want them to practice social distancing for a year until there’s a vaccine because this isn’t going away. I understand that asking to stop driving forever is even more unrealistic. Maybe you should only drive you when you have to then. Don’t ever go for a ****ing ride. Don’t ever drive on a vacation then. How about that? No matter where you try and go with this you’re a ****ing hypocrite. No matter where you put your goalposts, expecting the entire world to practice social distancing for months on end is and always will be UNREALISTIC. |

No more driving unless you’re going to work, taking your kids to school, etc. I mean if you don’t agree you’re basically a piece of shit that’s ok with 1.35 million people still dying every year. |

It's not always about you. If this disease was a plasmodium that you couldn't spread to others, then the rules would be different. If this disease was bloodborne, the rules would be different. If this was exposure to high dose radiation, the rules would be different. But it's none of those things. You need to think about the predictable consequences of your actions. If I swerve in front of someone and they run off the road and I don't, I'm not immune to criticism just because it didn't physically harm me.

Social distancing only works where it can be enforced and that is less places than people think. While I agree it is probably the most effective means of mitigation and much, much, MUCH more effective than masks, it simply is not practical on a large scale for any length of time for very many places.

I wonder how many think tanks are out there observing how far people are willing to be told what to do before soft civil disobedience to real civil unrest? Interesting times indeed

This is the CDC's definition of social distancing. I don't see how this is such a huge deal for a few months. Yeah it would suck for sports but they can play games with a few fans at least.
This doesn't mean you can't go back to work or shopping just stay away from people and super huge groups. And wear a mask please. Quote:

Now it’s looking like you all want everybody to just stop living until we have a vaccine or this goes away neither of which is happening for a long time. I’m not saying I’m not willing to follow reasonable social distancing measures. I’m speaking to people like PA that think anybody that wants to go to the gym or get a haircut is a POS. |

Does mean that if the public location doesn't require you to wear one, you do not?

That was part of it, yes. The primary goal was to minimize cases.
