Sometimes I wonder if they are really just testing us to see if we will follow.
Some of these decision makers are the same bozos who put COVID infected seniors in with non-infected seniors and are allowing anything-goes for angry mobs.

Poor comparison. The farmer's market isn't nearly as packed as the squares during "prime" entertainment. Unless you are referring to something like Marion Market the local Farmers market isn't any worse than Walmart. I'm sure you've seen the squares during Rocky and the Elders or Scooter or lots others popular bands. People are seated shoulder to shoulder next to each other and the dance floor is totally packed. People sweat, and rub against each other and touch and cough and sneeze. It's even bad without a pandemic on hot humid nights. There are some entertainers who get very low attendance but the top ones pack the place. No comparison to the Farmer's Market.
Disney is limiting to 25% crowds and require masks and temperature taking when they open in mid-July(I have a pass and still wouldn't go there). As for the beaches they still aren't nearly as close as would be in the squares if it is controlled. That's what created a lot of the problem in FL during spring break. At least now it is (barely) being controlled.
