I would say damned close to near zero. I did not comply. I’ve never worn a mask. I did not social distance. I did not lock myself down at home. I did not follow those stupid arrows. I never used hand sanitizer (unless it was the only soap available in restrooms). If masks were “required” at a store, I defiantly went in anyway. No one stood up to me. My life didn’t change much at all, except for Walmart closing at night. I shook hands with strangers and hugged family members. What about y’all? #PureBloodIP: Logged |

“Pure blood” was racist in Harry Potter. My blood is just fine, after getting vaccinated.I followed the guidelines, and only got Covid when I removed my mask in a public bathroom, on a really hot day, because of my stomach issue making me sick. IP: Logged |

Harry Potter is fiction. This is real life. So, you nearly complied 100% and still caught Covid? I have never caught it. I’ve lived my life like it didn’t exist. No fear.IP: Logged |

I was one of those first people who wore cloth masks even though Fauci said masking didn't work and ridiculed us. I followed every CDC guidelines, trying to be a good citizen. Ha!But then 3 things happened: 1) the Lancet magazine hit piece on hydroxychloroquine, which was later shamefully retracted. 2) the scientist whose epidemiological computer model was responsible for getting the world into lockdown was found to be sneaking in his married mistress, while the rest of London was on lockdown. 3) But the coup de grace was after the George Floyd tragedy, the same media that had been relentlessly scaring me into staying inside and wearing masks started glorifying the BLM protesters, people being out there in the streets, screaming at the top of lungs, screaming in the face of police officers notably, superspreading their germs all over... After that, I was done. I was like, eff you! I only wore masks when I absolutely had to like at work (cause I gotta work) or in food stores (cause I gotta eat). I did not wear mask in the streets even though I was surrounded by masked sheep and they were giving me side eyes. IP: Logged |

I complied and may still comply. Better to be safe and sorry. Although I never tested positive , I am not sure why living in the most dense state of USA, I still didn't get it --touch wood. I am not pure blood. I do believe all of this is a test -- one has to pass these tests. Our reality is trinity not duality (ther e is a path which is nether right or wrong). IP: Logged |

“Better safe than sorry.” Things a sheep would say. Bro, masks do not work. All scientific evidence points to that fact. Social distancing does not work. They originally thought Covid spread through droplets. It was always and is airborne. When you do things that are ineffectual with the mentality of “better safe than sorry,” all you are doing is giving in to irrational fear. IP: Logged |

Yeah, Harry Potter was fiction, but it still represented things that actually happen. The term isn't a good thing, in any way. IP: Logged |

How does Harry Potter in any way represent actual events that happened? Do tell. Stop it? Stop what? Stop stating facts? Facts matter. Pure Blood indicates that I do not have mRNA gene therapy wreaking havoc in my bloodstream, so… IP: Logged |

I think you're pretty amazing. Do you think it was easier to do because you were self-reliant and did not have any dependents? I can't imagine that if you had a wife and children and external responsibilities, you would have been able to maintain your purist stance without compromise and without moving to an area that allowed more freedom... Many people I know just relocated to better areas... IP: Logged |

I am in Georgia, so that helped. Not as free as Florida, but still reasonable. Having children wouldn’t have made a difference. We have religious exemptions for all vaccines here. Being defiant has its advantages. No one was brave enough to confront me and try to force me to comply. In a liberal cesspool like New York City or Cali, I’m sure I would have been arrested because I was not going to wear a mask. Period.IP: Logged |

It is scary how easily people gave up their rights and complied with totally irrational orders, such as masking until seated in a restaurant. Like the virus ignores those in a prone position.IP: Logged |
