Agreed all the more reason to not have it here.

Bad news sells that's why media loves it.

Desantis has brought a lot of the scrutiny on himself by putting his own political aspirations and scoring political points ahead of the health of his constituents.

I'm not a Desantis fan or a Florida fan. Not my kind of climate.

I don't trust any politician and I think you are a bit naive if you think Desantis is the only one putting his interests over those of the general population. They are all equally guilty of that on both sides.

No, not equally. Some are more guilty than others, by a lot

I never said Desantis was the only one.

Give me a break. [You] just unleashed the most political post in this thread by far.

Did you miss the part where I said, "I don't think that there is much more Biden can do," or are you just such a partisan hack that you expect everyone to ignore that I said that?

Crawl out of your tribal shelter, my friend. Those of us who are moderates are embarrassed by how partisan things have become.

"Those of us who're moderators"? I guess there're many more hidden moderators we don't know about then...?

Dude, that was your only neutral sentence in two paragraphs. I can’t read your mind, so maybe you’re a moderate, but you don’t post like a moderate. Just own your bullshit.

"moderates" not "moderators"

 

[JimG.]

I never said Desantis was the only one.

But he is the only one you mentioned.

Sure you want to get in on this? You’re always bemoaning political threads yet here you are diving into the fray. In or out?

 

[JimG.]

Let's face it we don't know who is responsible for what or to what extent.

Maybe when I'm in my 80's the truth will come out after all these crooks from both sides are dead.

Just stating facts. We should all enjoy the fact that we are all equally guilty of causing the current dysfunctional situation we find ourselves in. And maybe work together with respect to all and solve it.

As a moderator I'm compelled to read it. And what's it to you if I decide to stick my toes into the water?

Of course my other option is to lock this dumpster fire.

I’d say lock it and stfu. You’re not adding value to the thread by always complaining about it. Kill it.

I was replying to a post that specifically mentioned Desantis.

 

[Edd]

Your wish is my command!

I’m impressed.

 

[Not Sure]

Interesting article with some perplexing conclusions.

With all this aside - it seems pretty clear that by this winter we will not be in a post Covid world.

I'm going to predict that this winter we won't see much different from usual in the outdoor part of things. The one possible exception i can think of might be gondola capacity if numbers really begin to spike again.

I would not be at all surprised to see some sort of capacity limits in lodges and shops. Potentially proof of vaccination or negative test required in some situations (apres ski bars / lounges come to mind as a possible spot for this).

I already know of at least one popular restaurant in the MRV area that went back to take-out only. Wouldn't at all be surprised to see more follow suit.

Along those lines, In Killington - The PickleBarrel already announced that they will have Proof of Vaccination or recent Negative Test required for entry. Some of the hate being thrown at them on their social media is over the top.
