    The Biden administration has decided that you can (and should) act responsibly to limit the spread of Covid in your personal life but you need to get back to fucking work you shiftless loser! You can and WILL work your 40 to 60 hours a week to pay your landlord back for their sacrifice and hard work and you will be paying on your 60 grand student loans again in a couple months and if you don't like it then all this inflation is on you. Slap a mask on that face, or don't, and if you get Covid just stay home for a few days and no we won't pay you so maybe just tell your coworkers its the sniffles so you don't get evicted. And if Covid surges again back its because you sloppy working class fucks couldn't stay home during the other 52 waking hours you weren't at work when you should've been locked up inside your house avoiding other people. Sorry for the rambling anger... I didn't figure out quite what my point was.

    Opinion writing is just making up a social phenomenon and then getting mad about it.

      The phenonemom in question being "What if I get shamed for forcing my employees to remove their masks and work through the next wave?"

    America is Hanzo Main, the country. People here can't seem to swallow their pride and admit to being wrong.

    I guess that's life as a leftist, you like THE people, but you really can't stand people sometimes.

      Are Hanzo Mains still annoying in OW? Haven't heard anyone use the phrase "hanzo main" as an insult since 2015-2016.

        First phrase I can think of really, lol.

        The game is pretty much dead but I still play. That and I remembered that "Hanzo Main" was a meme so I went with that.

    I won’t shame people for going out. I mean we’re all human and socializing is essential. But, I will shame people who are healthy and refuse to get vaccinated out of muh freedums.

    We already called you guys "essential," what more incentive do you need to sacrifice yourself upon the altar of capitalism?
