16 Not The Brightest People Who Are Against The Quarantine Holding Some ‘Interesting’ Signs
Anti-lockdown protests continue to gather momentum across the U.S. as people flood the streets, ignoring social distancing rules. Even though some states are beginning to ease restrictions, most of the country remains under some form of stay-at-home order, which is making protestors call for America to 'reopen' immediately.
Some critics think Donald Trump is to blame. Last week, the President posted a series of tweets, urging everyone to 'liberate' Minnesota, Michigan, and Virginia and said the 2nd Amendment's under siege.
Protests have erupted in over a dozen states from coast to coast. Here are some of the signs that were spotted there.
This post may include affiliate links.
Demonstrations have occurred in Michigan, Ohio, North Carolina, Minnesota, Utah, Virginia, Kentucky, Wisconsin, Oregon, Maryland, Idaho, Texas, Arizona, Colorado, Montana, Washington, New Hampshire, and Pennsylvania. These states are led by both Republican and Democratic governors.
The crowds have varied in size quite a bit: from a few dozen protesters in Virginia and Oregon to thousands of people in Michigan and Washington state. The latter saw one of the largest demonstrations, with about 2,500 protesters gathering at the capital in Olympia. The state was the early epicenter of the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States.
In some places, these anti-lockdown demonstrations spawned counter protests. For example, in Colorado, healthcare workers blocked traffic at crossroads.
RELATED:
Reportedly, the organizers of these protests have largely been conservative, pro-Trump and pro-gun activists. Many of these demonstrations have been described as reminiscent of Trump campaign events, carrying pro-Trump banners, t-shirts, and signs. Some of them were even calling for freedom over tyranny and comparing governors to dictators.
However, it looks like the protests represent just a small fraction of people. Last week, a Pew poll found that 66% of US adults say their greater concern is that state governments will lift restrictions too quickly, rather than not quickly enough.
Also, US public health experts and many state leaders have continued to highlight the importance of social distancing, arguing in favor of the measures protesters have taken issue with.
Political things aside, it's normal that some feel as if the quarantine is becoming an increasingly heavier burden. Counselor and psychotherapist Tati Silva told Bored Panda that the pandemic can bring a sense of loss: "People feel unstable because they don't know what is going on, panic and fear come to place." Silva warned that this might lead to people developing depression, panic attacks, and anxiety.
If that is the case, it's important one takes care of their mental wellbeing during these difficult times. "Exercise if you can," Silva advised. "It will boost your mood. Set up buddy groups -- friends or family to do regular checking in with people. Distract yourself -- writing down your thoughts and feelings can help offload any worries and fear you may have."
And remember to be kind to yourself. "Don't overload yourself, thinking that you should be taking all the courses available online, learning 2 to 3 languages, and reading one book a day. That will make you feel overwhelmed. I also suggest that you pick one new thing every week to do, so your brain can get excited about the week to come."

Luckily I have not even HEARD of anything like this in my state (New Jersey). So far a majority are adhering to the pandemic rules (whatever you call them). The virus isn't terrifying for the people above because they don't know anyone who is sick or dying from Covid-19 (and they need haircuts). I don't know what the coronavirus situation is on their end, but a hell lot of people are dying here. My family friend is in quarantine because his brother is practically on his death bed right now. I just wish we could move all of these protesters to one state and let the rest of us try to fight this thing properly. Their stupidity is going to get innocent people killed. I get people have to work and it is a major issue right now, but people have to survive this thing. That is our top priority right now. Running around like idiots is not going to slow this down.

These Muricans think disease is caused by immorality/godlessness and that Jesus keeps them safe. They also seem to think Trump is Jesus.2, so they're out of their minds. Personally I'd be fine with them a moving to Quarantine Town, where they can live life as normal (for as long as that lasts) with no interference (or help) from the rest of us. No taxes, no public servants, no public infrastructure, no food assistance, no social security, no public education, no vaccines, no life-saving health care interventions, etc. They are welcome to wallow in their own selfish ignorance and cry about being abandoned by their country for getting exactly what they say they want.

You guys commenting are restoring my faith in humanity and my hope that I can ever see my family again. I am immunocompromised. My body attacks my neurological system if it feels even slightly threatened by things like say, Walking. Standing too long. Existing. If I get a virus like Covid 19 on top of this I will probably die of it, since the last cold I had went to 103 f and nearly hospitalized me. There is no treatment for my condition. If I end up in a hospital with this and Covid, There will be NOTHING they can do for me except keep me comfortable and hope I live. I haven't been able to hug my parents for over five weeks. It's been that long since I touched another person. I don't want to spend the next few years like this. THANK YOU FOR WEARING YOUR MASKS. THANK YOU for not hoarding food.

We can't stay home all the time because we are essential workers, but you better believe that when we get off work we go home.

Jace 5 years ago
Because being a republican requires a lot of comfort with cognitive dissonance. There’s a correlation between being Republican and being uninformed and religious (I’m not talking about college-educated republicans, but those often have other issues such as believing in fantastical economic theories that appease their egos). The more comfortable one is believing things just (and only) because they WANT to, the easier it is to believe in increasingly stupid and selfish b******t over time. Cognitive dissonance is the same mental processing that allows people to be religious AND otherwise seemingly educated. Accepting conflicting ideas is required to believe in religious doctrine/dogma/myths. As a result: cognitive dissonance. Being WILLING to believe nonsense of any kind leads to comfort believing other nonsense later.

I don't know why you got downvoted, Carol. You are telling the truth on many points. A lot of this is white privilege because you don't see a single minority in the crowd protesting. I don't see how in these times where people are dying, people chose to be upset because they want to go out.

People mistake freedom for not having any responsibility all the time. It's sad. And if they cannot oversee what is actually happening and what the effects are of their own individual actions ánd they lack trust in the authorities (which is extra sad because the toddler in Chief is in office by their own vote) they will believe that the action taken in which they do not feel happy (sitting in traffic while their grandparents are safe at home) is done solely to pester them. It's childish behavior we are in some way all guilty off by lack of capacity (I for instance do not recycle very well because I have no space in my tiny home, I could make more space, but it requires me to rearrange too many things with small children at home). For these people it's their mising brain capacity that keeps them from understanding and they were not brought up with the basic knowledge of shutting the f*ck up if it's beyond what you can grasp.

Leo Domitrix 5 years ago
Sadly, it is. Sadly, even tho' it's only a few thousand idiots ----- it takes only one to give Covid19 to up to three to six other people. Every idiot is potentially, let's say, four more people infected... who can infect potentially four more... and now that one person led to 16 infections, and each of the 16 can infect 4, and each of thsoe 64 infects 4, which is 256, infecting 4, which is 1024, times 4 is 4096... so one idiot can mean 4000 infected innocents, if we stop there. When the infectious disease specialist gave us updates a month ago, this is the math he used. One idiot = 4000 infected. Assume 1 of every of those 4 = illness severe enough to need medical care. Now one idiot = 1000 hospital patients...

I am not currently in the states but it makes me so frustrated to see all these idiots just ignoring the social distancing rules or the stay at home orders. The problem is too : one of them could be exposed to someone with Covid, take it home to a ailing family member then that person could end up in ICU. So although they find it foolish to follow orders, it’s actually better for themselves and their family if they do. However it seems that most of these protesters don’t see that..

About half of them are against the vaccination (and possibly mandatory vaccination). I agree with that. It's now known that if you don't get it bad enough, you have a big risk you don't make antibodies. Which means no vaccination will ever work, as that's an even weaker version of the virus. And it's rushed. The old vaccinations, that have been around for years, I'm ok with those. But I remember the also rushed HPV vaccination and how bad those girls had it that had the first version that had some "oopsies". For which of course the produces had no liability. Because that's all waived. All protected. (Good news though! A medicine that helps people not die from it has been found - it's one that has the lungs not drowning the owner as a side effect and the medicine has been around for some time and is thoroughly tested)

Because being a republican requires a lot of comfort with cognitive dissonance. There’s a correlation between being Republican and being uninformed and religious (I’m not talking about college-educated republicans, but those often have other issues such as believing in fantastical economic theories that appease their egos). The more comfortable one is believing things just (and only) because they WANT to, the easier it is to believe in increasingly stupid and selfish b******t over time. Cognitive dissonance is the same mental processing that allows people to be religious AND otherwise seemingly educated. Accepting conflicting ideas is required to believe in religious doctrine/dogma/myths. As a result: cognitive dissonance. Being WILLING to believe nonsense of any kind leads to comfort believing other nonsense later.

(their children and any elderly relative who did not go out and protest exempted and given care) Own those libs. If it's all a hoax we don't need to use ventilators on you do we?

Their photo should be in a data base, whenever they go to hospital, all people get treated first then they do. I don't want to go to the hospital and Dr decide to save then instead of a old person that is since months at home protecting herself.

I’d like to see these #CovIdiots say this to doctors and scientists... 🤦🏽♀️ You’ll notice there’s ZERO protests in front of hospitals. 🤷🏽♀️ I send energy, strength and love to the #FirstResponders that will have to deal with these #CovIdiots in 2 weeks, when they get the Virus. 💕

I'm glad to be living in the UK, okay things are not perfect here but at least there are no protests, people are following the advice given, small companies are making PPE. We have our own problems here but we are DEALING WITH THEM. None of us want to be in Lockdown but we prefer to do anything to STAY ALIVE.

Now, more than ever, America proved to the world, that indeed all the presumptions about them are true. / They genuinely are the dumbest, the most brainwashed nation on the planet. The world will continue long after the Pandemic is gone and the U.S. will be left behind, quarantined by everyone, because that is one place where the virus will have a free reign. / But that is what powers that be want, an isolated nation, which can be easily controlled as it descends into Fascism. / The same way the abuser isolates its victim and does with the victim anything he wants.

Take a good look everyone...these people are what stupidity looks like. You will also notice that there isn't a single black person in the crowd. White privilege at it's finest. And I can guarantee every one of them is probably drooling over the thought of voting the orange sociopath in again. Morons. A classmate lost her Uncle over this virus...but yeah...it's all f***ing made up to inconvenience them.

I don't know why you got downvoted, Carol. You are telling the truth on many points. A lot of this is white privilege because you don't see a single minority in the crowd protesting. I don't see how in these times where people are dying, people chose to be upset because they want to go out.

People mistake freedom for not having any responsibility all the time. It's sad. And if they cannot oversee what is actually happening and what the effects are of their own individual actions ánd they lack trust in the authorities (which is extra sad because the toddler in Chief is in office by their own vote) they will believe that the action taken in which they do not feel happy (sitting in traffic while their grandparents are safe at home) is done solely to pester them. It's childish behavior we are in some way all guilty off by lack of capacity (I for instance do not recycle very well because I have no space in my tiny home, I could make more space, but it requires me to rearrange too many things with small children at home). For these people it's their mising brain capacity that keeps them from understanding and they were not brought up with the basic knowledge of shutting the f*ck up if it's beyond what you can grasp.

look at so many other parts of the world that have it right--of people caring for each other--of governors standing up to Trump, of neighbours and strangers being good to each other.

This is a lesson against this kind populism. I hope the world learns from it.

I suggest the police to go around and get all their IDs. Nothing else, just make sure you know who they are. Then publish this somewhere (preferably publicly) and make sure that no hospital or healthcare facility will help them when they get covid-19. The list will also help make sure other, sane, people can keep their distance from these morons. It's their body, their choice, their consequences.
Leo Domitrix 5 years ago
Sadly, it is. Sadly, even tho' it's only a few thousand idiots ----- it takes only one to give Covid19 to up to three to six other people. Every idiot is potentially, let's say, four more people infected... who can infect potentially four more... and now that one person led to 16 infections, and each of the 16 can infect 4, and each of thsoe 64 infects 4, which is 256, infecting 4, which is 1024, times 4 is 4096... so one idiot can mean 4000 infected innocents, if we stop there. When the infectious disease specialist gave us updates a month ago, this is the math he used. One idiot = 4000 infected. Assume 1 of every of those 4 = illness severe enough to need medical care. Now one idiot = 1000 hospital patients...

How shall I explain this? Okay first of all, Mask does not mean you can stand super duper close. It keeps your germs to yourself but does not keep other germs from getting to you. Also, if you wear gloves around town, switch them because not only are you bringing the germs from your home but you could be bringing germs from outside in. ( Or just don't wear gloves and wash your hands!) Why do these health care workers come out retirement for these twits?

I’m half American and this protest rally idea going on is very stupid. For the rest of the American’s actually listening to the #Stayhome orders, thank you! I am not currently in the states but it makes me so frustrated to see all these idiots just ignoring the social distancing rules or the stay at home orders. The problem is too : one of them could be exposed to someone with Covid, take it home to a ailing family member then that person could end up in ICU. So although they find it foolish to follow orders, it’s actually better for themselves and their family if they do. However it seems that most of these protesters don’t see that..

About half of them are against the vaccination (and possibly mandatory vaccination). I agree with that. It's now known that if you don't get it bad enough, you have a big risk you don't make antibodies. Which means no vaccination will ever work, as that's an even weaker version of the virus. And it's rushed. The old vaccinations, that have been around for years, I'm ok with those. But I remember the also rushed HPV vaccination and how bad those girls had it that had the first version that had some "oopsies". For which of course the produces had no liability. Because that's all waived. All protected. (Good news though! A medicine that helps people not die from it has been found - it's one that has the lungs not drowning the owner as a side effect and the medicine has been around for some time and is thoroughly tested)

I'm sorry America but because of your handling of the virus, the rest of the world is going to ostracise you over this. While over 50% of you are so r****d and selfish, this is going to reach plague levels and when the rest of the world has more or less got through the pandemic, you'll be still needlessly killing yourselves for years to come. There will be no flights from anywhere allowed into the US and whereas for many of you, this is what you want, your country is going to crash and burn.

I would encourage you to also refrain from painting with broad brush strokes dehumanizing 165 million people, the cost of which you're going to allow the remaining 165 million to burn.
