litmus tests > purity tests

I'll take a random guy from a Hasidic wedding over a self-proclaimed Gen Y anarchist every time

That last sentence stings like battery acid on an open wound. I'm guilty.

So if we take away purity tests on some other issues, can we strengthen the purity test on the subject of lockdown and technocratic agenda?

I love your podcast Pete and most guests, but I nominate the speaker of these words for beheading metaphorically.

“Believe me I’m not first in line for this thing, but depending on the side effects of the vaccine and how widely spread it’s adopted... I think there’s a real demand, a severe demand to get back, not to new normal, brave new world nightmare land, but back to the way it was before this stupid virus broke out. No more masks, no more restrictions, none of this stuff. I think people are dying for that. And I think people will get it one way or the other within a short time.”

To summarize, he’s considering get the vaccine after a couple get vaccinated first. He thinks that people are dying to get back to before. (As you’ve discussed, som many are taking a preverse pleasure in lockdown culture.) he thinks that things are going to return to the way things were “witching a short time.” He needs Vin Armani intervention.
