They talk out of both sides of their mouths.
They are merely puppets doing what their puppet masters tell them to do and say.
Bars are where friends and acquaintances get together and talk. Bars are where people relax after a long day to escape the 9 to 5. After a few drinks, people get honest and forthright. Very few people trust their co-workers. Almost everybody trusts their drinking buddy. Too much talk in bars lately about the COVID being fake. They're eavesdropping on bar patrons through their smart phones. Consensus was forming.
Gotta shut that shit down.
