    Yes, when I visited the USA during COVID people actively got into my face and coughed at my face. Intentionally, to be clear.

    This was out in public in places like supermarkets.

    Absolutely abhorrent people. I’m glad I’m back in Europe for the next pandemic, much safer.

      Literally never had this happen and I live in a densely populated city in Texas.

      Vast majority of people masked without issue

      I can’t speak for Europe proper (relatively sane Europe), here in the UK I fully expect most of that same kind of behaviour. Probably not to the same extent as the US but it’ll be bad

        people speak English and thus the propaganda naturally leaks across the pond I’m afraid.

          Yep, although I take some slight comfort that the whole “deep state” thing doesn’t seem to have found much of a foothold here (yet?)

            Well, yeah, the reptilians in Buckingham Palace would never let the Deep State get any real power

      The US is huge, and that kind of attitude will (for the most part) only be present in certain areas of the country. It’s best that those places are avoided.

      You know I’m all about making sure my country’s lies are out in the open but man everyone everywhere I live in USA was masked up minus the couple of idiots that exist in every country. Y’all I’m mad at this shit that’s going on too but this statement is a false blanket statement.
