Relaxation of Restrictions, Part XII *Read OP For Mod Warnings*

Don’t forget Pat Kenny’s new toy that he’s latching on to. ‘Deltacron’. Pat is awful worried that it could be as transmissable as Omicron and as sickening as Delta.

One thing I learnt from all this is that some users here won't give in and will still pick on people

In very happy all this is over and we can live again. Few stuff personally going on and the last thing I need is the bullying here esp in this fourm. Look I got things wrong because my head was melted by many things like the media with all the fear mongering and the mixed messages from 'the experts'

A lot of the fear mongering on this thread was generated by you. Own it.

I really don't give a fúck what RTE are enforcing on their studio audience. You shouldn't either.

Here's a justification though - perhaps the demographic attending such recordings falls into the 'at risk' category and RTE are worried that, in these litigious times, that their risk assessment deems mask wearing as a suitable control measure.

In fairness that's a minor inconvenience by comparison to others

You think after two years of the "message", some people still need it reiterated by those on a dancing show?

It's not for me to justify RTEs risk assessments. I agree that it's bullshít but I was asked for a reason and I had a stab at it. I need to get over myself? Really? Why?

That's an interesting statement considering that this entire forum is filled with posts of people being told to mask up, protect the vulnerable, follow the science, listen to NPHET etc etc over the last 2 years.

But the poster is entirely correct. If someone is medically vulnerable to where sitting in a studio audience for several hours may risk their health, they probably shouldn't be there in the first place - or at least recognise that that decision is on them and they have no right to expect others to do anything because of that choice.

Take risks, live with the consequences.

Yeah but most organisations don't have the same reach into the private home like RTE do.

Will you not pay the TV licence now?

Kill the sky/virgin sub?

Disconnect your TV?

I thought you were done with me? Appears not.

There's a lot in there ^^^ There's absolutely nothing to stop other organisations, businesses or shops making up ludicrous rules with no justification. Not sure how you've come to the conclusion that I've 'gone along with it unquestioningly from the start'. That's simply not true. It may surprise you to know that I ignored the 5km thing. Also, I'm not 'okay with this'. I just don't give a shíte what RTE are asking their studio audience to do. It has absolutely no effect on me.

Oh right...

I wouldn't say I'm overthinking it. Just pointed out a clear and obvious false equivalence.
