Social distancing is about destroying populism. People have to be alone in their thought

BS Social distancing is not lock-down. Whitmer and her kith and kin should be strung up on lampposts, but reasonable social distancing is appropriate.

‘but reasonable social distancing is appropriate.’

let me ask you this; yesterday I was at a supermarket, (outside because I refuse to wear a mask, but I also refuse to possibly infect people, so outside I stay)...I was watching from a distance as the store deployed employees to limit the amount of people in the store, keeping them in the cold windy weather breathing into sodden masks...’we are at capacity’ the employee shouted, ‘and as one leaves, one of you can go in...’ in turn, I shouted to him ‘what happens if one person over ‘capacity’ goes in...does everybody drop dead...?” and of course I got the stink eye from him and several of the sheeple...

my question(s) to you...is the above a ‘reasonable’ usage of the social distancing principle, considering that at no time in the long history of this market has the number of people in the store ever mattered until this ‘crisis’; that the entrance of another person over an artificial and capricious ‘capacity’ has created an existential threat to the other shoppers and employees, and that we are being manipulated into believing that questioning these practices is akin to harboring murder...?

actually, I’ll rephrase; I have only one question, after all; do you believe the utter stupidity implicit in such actions as I’ve described above constitutes reasonable and constructive behavior...?

Fuhrer Whitimer got this whole thing started, and in a purple state as well. Even Wolf, and Murphy are releasing some restrictions, and letting parts of there states open up.
