We do not mind if our neighbors fly a Trump flag, but we don't want to be the only ones without one.
You and Pensacola will not be a good fit!

Can it be possible that you are wrong? Could it be that climate change is normal and has been happening since the globe's been spinning? Could it be that the environment is being used to grab power and manipulate the masses meanwhile real issues are ignored? Could it be the real science is geological and that we are at the end of an ice age? Did global warming and stone age man cause Great Britain to become an island when it had been a peninsula? Who was to blame when the Sahara become a desert when it was once an ocean? Throughout history, there are always people who just go along. These people never question authority or suspect that they might be wrong. There are loads of places along the west coast where you can stand in homeless people's poop while discussing with like minded people about how awesome you think you are

It's always easier to believe what is comfortable and least frightening, especially when your political leaders tell you it's OK to do so.

What is least frightening? To know that everything you believe is a lie or that the environment is changing? No one is denying the enviro is changing. Look outside of politicized "global warming" and look at ice age epoc and geology (if youre not too scared)

Not OP but I believe these six pages of responses deliver a pretty solid answer to her question.

We have 40 years of SCIENCE that proves masks do nothing to prevent the transmission of viruses. The evidence was so overwhelming in fact that some hospitals stopped requiring surgeons to wear masks in surgery. That science doesn't matter anymore, I guess. Just face it, you're brainwashed by a cult. The masks are your symbol of piety, the "vaccine" is your sacrament.

The science is inconclusive so the take-away is to err on the side of caution. A 2015 study published in the Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine concluded:

"It is important not to construe an absence of evidence for effectiveness with evidence for the absence of effectiveness. While there is a lack of evidence supporting the effectiveness of facemasks, there is similarly a lack of evidence supporting their ineffectiveness. With the information currently available, it would be imprudent to recommend the removal of facemasks from surgery. "

40 years of studies and trials that show masks do nothing to prevent transmission of viruses. In fact, a couple studies said improperly worn masks ie touching it with soiled (read: not sterile) hands actually increase the risk of infection. The science is well settled and conclusive. The article I linked has an exhaustive list of studies proving it. You don't accept it because your cult tells you not to. That's how cults work. No amount of facts or evidence will ever change your mind.

Every study linked and quoted is legitimate. Think what you want of the site, the article just serves as a collation of data. I could've just linked every study individually for people like you, but I think you could try to use your brain just a little bit for once.
