There is no choosing there

You are now at the crossing. And you want to choose, but there is no choosing there. There’s only accepting the death that is coming.

The choosing was done a long time ago when we chose freedom instead of the police state needed to stop the pandemic.

 

What in the heck is this thread?

 

It is a riff on a quote from the movie The Counselor.

You are now at the crossing. And you want to choose, but there is no choosing there. There’s only accepting. The choosing was done a long time ago. – Jefe, advising "the counselor" after his first drug deal goes very wrong.

 

mmm........ok ????????

 

I chose freedom years ago. Now my chances of contracting Covid are about as near zero as possible. I now am in complete control of my risk exposure to Covid. If everyone had chosen the freedom I did, the pandemic could have been averted or stopped cold in a few weeks.

Alas, too many are dependent on government and other services. I have to accept the deaths of others, but it isn’t the result of my choosing freedom. It’s the result of their choosing dependence on others.
