My first and last time eating at Five Guys was in Paris. 

Generally I eat everything and I'm not picky at all.

I am not exaggerating when I say that I have never ever eaten anything more disgusting than the burger and fries there. They tasted horrible, they were dry as if they'd been left in the sun for 45 minutes, and they were way overpriced. I took one bite of each and left it. That was the first time in my life that I left my food unfinished (almost untouched) at a restaurant :madge:

Weird, did we eat the same thing? I suspect ur batch was very old then

I was with four friends and all of us had something different. None of us could finish our food :duck:

It was such a disappointing experience :fatcat:

most BLM protestors wear masks!

And? They respected one rule and ignored the rest and that's ok? 

If it is dangerous, it is for everyone and if we make rules, they should be for everyone.

You make a lot of assumptions. You know any of those people? "The masks" controversy exists mostly in US. 

I dont understand this hypocrisy that covid is dangerous only for the ones protesting for the cause you dont believe in. It either is dangerous or it isnt. Stop with the double standard. 

It’s not an assumption. This protest in Germany was organized by Neo-Nazis. 

You’re defending them. It’s quite interesting how racists and fascists are the main ones protesting against pandemic restrictions.

I'm not defending them. I know nothing more about the protest, except what I've read in the article. I hope that the German authorities will fine them for not respecting the rules.

My point was simple I dont agree with any protest that doesnt follow social distancing measures, if that isnt clear. You, on the other hand, agree with some and disagree with others. That's not ok.

If the virus is dangerous, it is for everybody, not just for some protesters. It's simple and you dont need a 5/10 intelligence to figure out that.

Im pretty sure everyone said they were scared of the outcome of BLM protests when it comes to coronavirus. Protestors even said they were willing to take a risk for this issue. So ur argument is invalid

I dont think black people in the US felt they had any choice to stay silent in their own home after having enough of police murdering someone in cold blood from the x amount of time. I'm sure if u put urself in their shoes u would understand

I understand them. However I cant agree with members using health concerns to criticise some protesters, while supporting others protesters even when the health concerns were the same. 

I still think that you should be able to protest even in these times, but if you dont respect the rules, that's not ok.

Yes, the health concerns are the same but the conscientiousness of those being risky needs to be considered.

There wasn't a surge in cases after hundreds of thousands protested for BLM. I think it's safe to assume that people considerate enough to wear masks (and risk their life to save anothers) are also engaging in other preventative hygiene procedures.

The areas of the US where covid deniers, or just plain selfish people, went about like nothing was going on, are being devastated like it's NYC in March all over again. I think it's safe to assume that people who deny that there even is a virus, tend to also engage in belligerently irresponsible behavior that shows absolutely no concern for others, nor have a real understanding of the consequences of their actions.

One group is a big bull charging in a china shop. One group is a big bull sucking in their gut, top-toeing through the aisles, trying to be as undisruptive as possible.

I hope you see the nuance there.

I agree with the reason for protesting. I not once said I agreed with people not social distancing. Nice try. 

You, who have been anti-lockdown for months are now pro-restrictions? Please. 

You got what you wanted. Thousands are dying because of people like you who put pressure on government to reopen. Congratulations. 

Now you’re defending fascists.

I can see your logic but protesting against masks is totally useless and harmful for the health of others. If you protest for useful things, people understand it more.
