Seems like the churches in Wisconsin will bring some people closer to God sooner than expected.
Get your plague! Free Plague! All you gotta do us just show up!!!
Tin foil hat time but why they scared of people miss church? Will they start developing independent thought? Didn't last time.
- Nah it's about the money.
  Churches dont make anything if they can't guilt u with your neighbors watching what you donate to the collection plate...
  
  Truth but why politicians care? Unless we follow the money...
- They did video streaming like everything else. Thing is the virtual collection basket was a bit light. Turns out folks are not as willing to drop plastic as they are loose change.
Killing your own church goers with plague to pwn the libs
I'm reminded of the scene in The Stand where they go into a church and find a bunch of dead bodies from people who thought they could pray the flu away.
I'm OK with it so long as they're not allowed to leave the church again until the pandemic is over.
Once those develop as superspreader events, they will drop this very quickly or face isolation of church-goers.
- You clearly don't remember those videos where the churchgoers were defying lockdown, screaming that they were bathed in the blood of Jesus.
- Lol, no they wont, they arent gonna let reality tell them what to do
- I do not wish to come across as insulting because that's not my intention. I really do believe that this comment is very naive, however. People put politics ahead of all else during the previous pandemic and this law is just the latest part of that battle. The same thing happened in 1918. The same thing will happen in 2120.
  
  I do not mean this socially, only politically, because the supposed alternative is changed election populus by excess mortality as we saw in 2020.
  2120, I'm not so sure, but I'm also no epidemiologist. The plague had a 7-10 year re-emergence cycle, there are many potential latent viruses and existing viruses have high mutation potential.
Eugenics, gotcha.
Fuck me, that is just all-around dark. Them cheese-eating Cristo-grannies finna die from the fungus-fold pandemmy of '29
