    And yet you were complaining about eating on a bench rather than a table because you forgot your ID. No lockdowns, no shuttered businesses, just you eating in a less comfortable place than you could have eaten if you’d carried your license.

      If that’s your take you missed his point.

      His point was obviously that’s it’s stupid that he couldn’t eat in the food court but could eat at a bench in the exact same mall.

        Did you not read any other post in this thread? Someone made fun of him for being inconvenienced for what he saw as a silly requirement and he countered with business owners committing suicide for shuttered businesses during lockdowns, notably not the restriction he was complaining about.

        The point is that they’re lying and that story never happened. We literally all got haircuts during COVID. I don’t know if maybe this person lives in a bubble where these lies are propagated and unchallenged or something, but I very clearly remember two years ago, when the government wasn’t raiding barbershops.

        I’ve met these people in real life. They’ve told these lies so many times in their echo chamber, they get confused when normal people call out their bullshit.

          My barber, my small town famous bakery and at least one restaurant in town all went out of business.

          There is nothing hyperbolic or untruthful about what I said.

          I didn’t say that ALL barbers went out of business, or ALL bakeries either.

          But mine did. I even posted a link to the stats in Canada for small businesses closing forever due to the governments restrictions.
