Exactly - I pointed the same thing out three days ago.... it's just endless negativity and criticism.... nothing constructive.... seems overly argumentative.

Endless negativity and criticism against the CDC, the government, the media really needs to stop, don't you think? Please enlighten us all as to how signing petitions and emailing government officials who have repeatedly ignored or gaslighted those who are bombarding them with such "endless negativity and criticism.... nothing constructive.... overly argumentative" comments is going to accomplish anything.

Double standards much?

You seem rather confused... you are contradicting yourself now?!

There is no need to enlighten 'all', just 'you'.

By not signing petitions, you 100% achieve diddly squat.

Hence, by signing petitions you necessarily do more than nothing.

Surely that simple logic does not escape you?

What is more effective still is sending personal emails to your local politicians underlining how dissatisfied you are. This method is incredibly effective. Why? Unlike a petition with a few thousand signatures, with a few thousand individual letters/emails inundating those same politicians, they 'feel' the weight of dissatisfaction FAR more.

That pressure will affect them as they are people, and people will buckle under pressure.

My original point is that your attitude, and yours alone, is defeatest and negative. What's the point?! And WE don't need that attitude, we need people who step up and 'do', not complain.

Hope that clarifies.
