How much damage do you think would ultimately be done in "flattening the curve" if someone also decides to get a bag of fertilizer or vegetable seeds while picking up their Totino's pizza rolls? Speaking of which--do Totino's pizza rolls really count as food?
What about Sody-pop?
Perhaps Dear Leader should determine precisely what food items are "essential" as well...
Whitrmer is a fucking joke. Citizens would be wise to slap her ridiculous overreach down now, lest she really gets ahead of herself and turns Michigan into a goddamned police state.
2.More then if they just got the food (and yes it's food by definition )
3.Slippery slope fallacy
4.Yes yes you don't like her.That isn't an argument.
So overall no real objections here just pouting
You can call slippery-slope fallacy if you like, but to my mind, this isn't about debate decorum. It's about drawing a fucking line in the sand.
Truth of the matter is, governments DO use crises such as these to incrementally implement fuckshit they wouldn't dare under normal circumstances, because ordinarily people would have no problem recognizing it as tyranny.
So in such cases, yeah--I think it's a good idea for such overreach to be confronted before it gets out of hand.
