In response to bradley
P38, I hear you and understand your motives better now regarding masks and shutdowns. Now that I understand, I'm also more agreeable to the viewpoint - the politics, not the health policy. Still, do you need to respond to every single message from others with alternate options? This is just a basketball newsgroup. Can you try to win your views on a Covid-19 policy board instead? It's not the actual opinion - it's just too much. You have been heard - some agree, some do not. I just don't want to read the same opinion again and again. It wastes all of our time. If this is your only outlet to be heard on these viewpoints, write a letter to the editor of a paper or something like that where real policy might be impacted. Discuss with your family and friends. Write a letter to the Ivy League. Write to the University presidents. Even post once in a while about this. Just spare us the number post on this - please! I try not to initiate posts with opinions on covid-19, but sometimes I feel compelled to weigh in when it gets too much. It is an endless loop with no real purpose other than to pound views at us. If you need to repeat again and again, let's make it about basketball. To be honest, that's the only reason I come here. I don't really care about sharing or receiving anyone's covid viewpoints here at all - other than just wishing everyone here safety.
