Friends, CRAZY THINGS OF THE WEEK Sometimes it’s hard to keep track of the absurdity around us, but here are a few tidbits from the last couple of weeks: Thing #1 AMC Theatres originally announced that masks would be optional in jurisdictions where they were not mandated by law. Their initial position was that they wouldn’t require the wearing of masks “by those who feel strongly they don’t help.” So now we’re letting individuals decide on science and safety? That’s like saying vaccines are optional, stop lights are merely suggestions, and mandatory education is only important if you believe literacy is helpful. Given that we are allowing people to determine whether rugged individualism justifies spraying germs around the room, why not also allow them to stick boogers in the hair of the person in front of them? AMC since has reversed their position, and now will require masks.
