During the lock downs I began to suffer from megalomania. I went for my daily walk on near deserted streets eerily silent streets. Whenever I would spot someone in the distance they would immediately cross to the opposite side of the street. A few weeks of this, I started to play "tag" with them because they were afraid of me; of course my stature terrified them all 5 feet and 83 lbs. The power was intoxicating, I almost miss that power.
What fun. I rather had the same experince in as much as I thought as I walked along the footpaths 'Make way for the king, make way!' as people flung themsleves into the gutter to avoid me.
I exaggerate though as in our village there aren't that many people around any way. :) Still, the thought was there and it is empowering.
I had a version of this (oh, the shame!) When the signs on the floor read “keep a 6 foot distance”, I always moved in closer. And when the arrows on the floor said “walk this direction only”, I went in the opposite direction! My pronouns are DoNotComply/BeUngovernable!
We had that in our grocery store, and I always walked the opposite direction too. They gave up on that one pretty quickly. I think I had a lot of company in my defiance! I guess they were seeing how much they could get away with.
Well, looks like they’re gearing up for round 2 with the dreaded pink-eye causing Bird Flu! We’ll see how effective their scare tactics are this time or if people actually learned something from last time!
Oh let's hope so! Ugh! Really "Pink-eye causing", I hadn't heard that yet, but granted I do not watch the news, so.... might be missing some all important ramp up on their scare tactics. I know some will still fall for it. Let's hope there are enough of us with our head(s) out of the sand to stand up to them and be "Non-compliant". Power to the People!
Of course, you wouldn’t have heard the truth about the “new” bird flu if you DID watch the news! Last I read, there were a handful of cases in poultry workers, all of which developed pink eye. Again, as far as I’ve been able to ascertain, there has been 1 death. This individual was highly compromised with multiple very serious comorbidities and would clearly have passed with or without H5N1. Nonetheless, hundreds of thousands of poultry have been slaughtered, despite the fact that bird flu has been around for decades. Monkeypox failed to elicit the proper fear response, so on to the next “current thing”!
Destroying our food sources is far more dangerous than the bird flu would ever be. That is what concerns me. Of course, it fits their agenda and isn't about real risk.
We have Long Stupid, so why not Perennial Stupid, the chronic form? I mean, when does the acute phase end? This was obviously a discriminating virus, since the 'antisocial' distance varied according to which country you were in. France, for example, had the Recalcitrant version that refused to travel more than 1 metre! Keeping males and females apart is probably related to the fact that the world population is set to decline later this century, for the first time since the Black Death.
“Males and females should keep 2 m apart” is not really a completely logical explanation. I would go for “persons without clothes should keep the horizontal distance of 2 m from people in dresses or skirts pulled up to the armpits”.
Perfectly logical and in line with the governing logic of that time.
...for the intelligent virus which can tell when you are eating (don’t attack), drinking (get ready), travelling to a next village (viruses not allowed), waiting to board a plane (attack) or boarding a plane (viruses go to sleep)...
Hi, I am in the sunny south, West Sussex. The colloquialisms were used by my father, who is still alive, and he was in the Royal Navy so I suspect it is part of that as much as anything.
Glad you found Dawn Lester, she is doing sterling work.
Making such a rule and ordering its implementation says a lot about those who made it up. In both aspects: the precision of their thinking and how they appreciate our mental capacity.
I’d say we need an alternate Earth to start a new life, very badly.
It is amazing that there are still People stupid this long, clinging to the lies as if Their lives depend on them - which is extremely ironic, given the lies are killing more than the flu ever did.
The science communtiy & the government have unequivocally figured out that the spread of Coronavirus is based solely on two things.
1. The density of the population .
2. How dense the population really is.
Hang on, you are telling me that they don't have a cure for a disease that can be killed with soap?
OK, so apparently my chances of survival is directly reliant upon how much common sense the rest of the world has? You're taking the piss.
To ALL of the dumbarses who bought 20 bottles of soap leaving none of the shelves for others, you do realise that to stop getting the "deadly virus", you need other people washing their hands too.
The government has just announced that if you have had to wear glasses and a mask at the same time because of Covid-19 you may be entitled to condensation.
No one talks in person. Everyone talks online where you can know what tribe you are speaking to. I don't know how the people in my social sphere feel about the topic. I post many things about my feelings on it, but it's all shadow banned, so many people probably don't know my position either! Sad state of affairs!
I may have mentioned elsewhere but I found that there were issues with the browser I was using. I use another to allow me to like, so as and when I am double checking and liking comments I couldn't at the time.
So many examples of Long Stupid…one if my favorites is…you MUST wear a mask when walking to your table in a restaurant, but it’s okay to remove it when eating, or in some cases they actually allowed you to ENTIRELY REMOVE YOUR MASK as long as you were seated! Oh, the horror! I guess it was okay, though, since we all know “covid” can’t find you unless you’re standing up!
I had the experience of going to the pub in the UK for a meal. I refused to wear a mask so I went in the side toilet entrance. My dear papa and sister complied. I had thought them intelligent...
If the scandemic showed us anything, it was people’s true colors. I learned a lot about so called friends. Still shunned by some of them today, but that’s fine, they’re constantly ailing with some illness or the other… (while I haven’t been sick in over 5 years!)
Right after Mask mandates were lifted here in Canada, I went to get a "take out" meal at a local restaurant. I intentionally wore no mask to do so. Many were still afraid to do this, but I wanted to claim back our rights asap! The server was horrified that I was risking myself (and probably her) by doing so. I looked around and said, "There's people in here with their mouths open, eating. That's got to be worse if there is a risk". She let me have that one and gave me my food. (p.s. I wasn't allowed to "Sit" in the restaurant and eat as I was not j*bbed, but I was okay to walk through, breathing as I do, when others had their mouths gaping open shoving food in. No lack of logic there! ;-))
I think my all time favourite of LongStupid20 is equivalent to "Who's on First". You'll all be well versed in the Lack-Logic of it! It goes something like this, "You are dangerous to me because you haven't been Vaccinated! You're going to make old people die and it will all be your fault!" "But you've had the Vaccine, yes?" "Yes." "And you believe the Vaccine protects people?" "Of course it does!" "Then you are safe." "No, because you are not vaccinated, so you are putting me at risk!" "But you've had the Vaccine, you said?" "Yes." "Then how can you be at risk?" "Because you could be unknowingly carrying IT and could infect me." "But you are Vaccinated yourself?" "Yes, why do you keep asking me that? Don't you care about me or the old people!?" "Do you think the V protects you from contraction of the Virus?" "Well, yes, of course it does!" "Then how are you at risk?" "Blank stares! Blink, Blink! Why do you hate old people?" It doesn't usually go that well, but in my head this is how it would go next time it comes up. In reality, it doesn't protect you from Viruses, overly licky puppies, Mass Hysteria, Mass Hypnosis, The Great (or not so great) Reset, the corrupt elite, Bill G*tes, the Rockefe!lers, 15 minute cities, the bird flu, chemtrails, the body of things, and definitely NOT LongStupid20 or even Stupid20.
This must be just another Long Stupid variant. I read awhile ago, that, around 1943, another version was well documented: https://www.lewrockwell.com/2023/08/no_author/on-stupidity/. It seems the subsequent chronic symptoms were: tyranny, uncontrollable yelling and screaming of official nonsense, marginalizing and berating those not diseased and strangely a strong desire for war. I am quite sure this condition was around since we started thinking we were smart.
A good point. Dan in the comments makes an interesting observation. As I looked again at the sign I realise one interpretation could be that it is a man on one side and a man in a dress on the other, so maybe the notices already accomodate that? :)

People made way for our dog too and now our dog thinks she is a King.
Lol!
This gave me a good laugh. Thank you.

Long stupid it is!
It was always the flu.

Yes but I am so angry an jealous of metric people you got about 6 inches more social distance than us primitive American.......not fair!
Don’t be. Size doesn’t matter. 6 inches more or less won’t make much difference...
🤪👍
...for the intelligent virus which can tell when you are eating (don’t attack), drinking (get ready), travelling to a next village (viruses not allowed), waiting to board a plane (attack) or boarding a plane (viruses go to sleep)...
BM started the sizist talk.
He has let the short stupid people off the hook.
BM, what part of Angleterre do you reside in?
It's funny how many of your colloquialisms are ones that I grew up with.
"short and curlies"
"Ha, bloody ha"
Par example.
(I am in NZ, with British four bears.)
And thank you for pointing me in the direction of Dawn Lester.
Her writing is a relief to read.

"Ha, bloody ha."
Save that for extreme types of trickery against one.
It's almost a curse against the one being addressed.
Most Substackers are in the US of course so it's kinda nostalgic to read your Englishisms.
Dawn is great and we hope her messages dawn on people, lest they go astray.
Spot on!
Making such a rule and ordering its implementation says a lot about those who made it up. In both aspects: the precision of their thinking and how they appreciate our mental capacity.

PS. Your article is excellent.
It is amazing that there are still People stupid this long, clinging to the lies as if Their lives depend on them - which is extremely ironic, given the lies are killing more than the flu ever did.
"Long Stupid"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Thank you!

So, so, many dummies out there BM.👍🇦🇺
"Long Stupid".
Wish I had thought of that!
Most I know, suffer from this affliction, but I refrain from pointing it out.
I'm no longer a pariah, as some have secretly admitted to themselves that the vaccines probably weren't the right choice.
So no one talks about Covid-19.
Go figure...
No one talks in person. Everyone talks online where you can know what tribe you are speaking to. I don't know how the people in my social sphere feel about the topic. I post many things about my feelings on it, but it's all shadow banned, so many people probably don't know my position either! Sad state of affairs!
Well that was funny and you cheered me up no end. Thank you.
I may have mentioned elsewhere but I found that there were issues with the browser I was using. I use another to allow me to like, so as and when I am double checking and liking comments I couldn't at the time.
So glad. Sorry I can't make like button work, it is very frustrating.

My pleasure, as always.
Will those notices be amended to include trannies for the next pandemic?
A good point. Dan in the comments makes an interesting observation. As I looked again at the sign I realise one interpretation could be that it is a man on one side and a man in a dress on the other, so maybe the notices already accomodate that? :)
