KATHERINE writes from lock-downed Virginia:

The Virginia state motto is Sic semper tyrannis.  I propose changing it to:  Amamus tyrannos.

So glad I can seek refuge at your website. The number of masked sheeple has increased here.  I sense maybe some “virtue signaling”?  Also, people talk as if nobody would be dying if it were not for the Coronavirus. And all those elderly people in nursing homes would just live on and on if they didn’t get the virus.

Meanwhile, in the grocery store I see so many masked and gloved sheeple filling their carts with soft drinks (really cheap now), Little Debbie Cakes, potato chips, ice cream, and stacks and stacks of meat.  Not a word from our illustrious political and medical leaders about eating healthfully to strengthen one’s immune system, along with the need for fresh air and sunshine.  What an incredible farce this is!

I am also in Virginia and of a similar mind to that of your correspondent Katherine.

The second day of this farce, I told my wife I was ready to call the governor’s office and ask if his staff knew whether he had ever unfurled that blue flag he likes posing in front of.  He is a physician so I know that he understands Latin.

On further reflection, however, I have come to realize of late the figure in blue is actually the tyrant on our state flag who has temporarily set his crown down beside himself and donned his blue work clothes.

The vanquished hipster on the ground simply liked purple togas and was utterly innocent.  A number of my ancestors fought under that flag in the Civil War and I hate to think how scornfully they must look upon their progeny, myself included, who suffer this to transpire.  On the other hand, I think they were duped by the greatest 19th century psy-op, so maybe plus ca change.

I too worry about the worried sheep who look at me from behind masks with cow eyes, and I know they are thinking “heretic, heretic!”  I try to look back with a smile because I know we are commanded to let not our hearts be troubled.  We are not commanded to practice idolatry and believe a stupid video screen and rumors above the common sense our
