Sometimes you overreach. It can be about recruiting. It can be about a player. Here it's about public health. It's something you do, a certain bravado, as though you want to be the cool kid of the day. It's an identifiable human trait.
The thing I'd best liken your version of it to is a soup or stew that keeps getting ingredients added to, until it's too one (or a few) too many, and the cook is kind of lost, but is in too deep to fix things or bow out gracefully.
As this pecadillo of yours takes its periodic shape, it can be spirited, amusing, annoying, even puzzling. Sometimes, when you seem in over your head, you pull the plug with an LOL, or a series of them. IIRC, back with Dylan Cardwell, you acknowledged that you weren't a recruiting insider. That one struck me as an admirable reset.
Yeah, you've got a few valid themes in this concoction, even enough to rebut some of the individual pushbacks on one or more points, but I really don't think this one is salvageable. We've got something that has been declared by the WHO as a pandemic. Things are being canceled left and right. And a lot of the traction is for slowing the spread, not over taxing resources, and not putting the most vulnerable at needlessly excessive risk.
I think it s a pretty solid bet that you have little to fear as to your own health. The same is probably true for most folks here. At 66, I do not feel personally in danger. But that's not the relevant conversation. Your confident stance in that argument is largely unnecessary.
Your (presumed) youthful exuberance isn't a bad thing, but let it simmer and season sometimes. I suggest giving it a test drive on this story.
