A big bunch of people here try and block anyone from posting here because your contribution here might not align exactly and perfectly with their thoughts on the matter.

It is a discussion board, it requires open mindedness, which means being open to new ideas and thoughts.

But quite often if a person brings a thought to the table others are quick to shoot that thought down.

It is almost like there is a clique here, if you are part of the inside clique your thoughts are welcomed. If you are outside of the clique, they slap a bull's eye on you, and be ready for attack because your contributions maybe out side of the prevailing opinions.

Somehow thinking they have all the answers, know so much more than others, and have no time or patients - so they quickly trash countering opinions.

This Coronavirus is called a Nuevo Virus.
Maybe they don't know what NUEVO means.

nuevo. Adjective. (not comparable) New or novel, usually in reference to Latin American culture.

This virus is going to require a lot of outside the box thinking to solve this problem. Being open to new approaches, new perspectives, and differing opinions based on and rooted in factual information maybe where the answer to this riddle can be found.

Opening your mind and opening your heart to other peoples opinions might be a good place to start, a tad less confrontational would help.
