Ok, so, the new Texas liberal/leftist/socialist/fascist/communist virtue signal is to go onto Twitter or Facebook and brag that “I’m gonna keep wearing my mask – I don’t care what that neanderthal Abbott says!” Which tells you they’re breathlessly keeping up with their Democrat Party talking points, since the elderly Sock Puppet In Chief used the word “neanderthal” yesterday when talking about Texas Governer Greg Abbott’s rescission of his statewide mask order and job-killing limitations on Texas businesses.
But don’t ask them what actual data or science they’re using as the foundation for their demented brag; if you do, they’ll just scream something like “it’s science because Fauci says so!!!!!” or something similar. After all, these are people who have already made a conscious decision to remain willfully ignorant of any data or science that does not support the daily talking, er, screaming points coming at them from Biden and Fauci and that bald little fat guy on CNN.
VDO.AI Let’s face it, they’re already intentionally ignoring every shred of science about kids being back in school so they can go to Twitter and Facebook to signal their teacher’s union-supporting virtue. Expecting any of them to actually pay attention to the real science about the utter uselessness of wearing masks is like asking for a complete change in long-engrained behavior.
Not gonna happen.
Very predictably, the sadistic cowards who run big box stores like Wal-Mart and Target in Texas have also already made the decision to follow the mood of the Perpetual Outrage Mob and continue to require the wearing of masks on their premises, which Governor Abbott made very clear is their right to do in his order. Of course, it’s to their advantage to play to the mob, which makes up half of their customer base. And it’s also to their advantage to do their part in fanning the mob’s flames since it will encourage the mask-wearers to now boycott any small business competitor who chooses to lift their own mask requirement.
See how this works?
As I told a friend on Facebook yesterday, this is what a year of brainwashing by Fauci and the corrupt news media has done to the left: Turned them into a pack of braying hyenas who consider it a significant virtue to deny American kids a full year of real in-school education – something that is most negatively impactful for the least-privileged kids among us – and to walk around hiding half their faces behind one, two or even three masks that have been proved time after time after time to have literally no impact on the spread of this virus.
As well, school superintendents across Texas are signaling their own virtue to the mob by announcing they will keep in place the mask requirements and other restrictions that have set back millions of school children in the state. Here is one typically idiotic statement from the superintendent of the Cedar Hill ISD in North Texas:
“Cedar Hill Independent School District, we certainly believe the mask requirement should continue for the foreseeable future. The masks have allowed us to return to a semblance of normalcy. They have prevented COVID-19 cases and allowed in-classroom learning to begin and thrive…”
No, the masks have not prevented COVID-19 cases. As even Anthony Fauci has repeatedly stated on national television, there is zero evidence that school-age kids are spreaders of the virus, and even less evidence that requiring 7 year-old children to wear masks has prevented a single case of the viral gift from China. This is propaganda, nothing more, and it is what we are running our schools upon. It’s the very same propaganda that screamed that the recent Super Bowl held in Tampa, Florida would turn into a “super spreader” event, but ignores the actual science and data that proves it was in fact nothing of the sort.
As I’ve been warning you for many months now: The left’s response to COVID is not about saving lives, it is about controlling lives. It is about creating the pretense for making things like wearing masks and stay-at-home orders and unconstitutional restrictions on the freedoms we have always held dear permanent features of our lives. These restrictions are things they consider to be features, not glitches, and they are going to cling to them by any means necessary.
Why? Because a population that not only lives in fear but does so willingly is much easer to control as the Democrats continue to shove their rancid form of fascist socialism down its collective throat.
That’s what this is about, and the Perpetual Outrage Mob on Twitter and Facebook provides the foot soldiers for the spread of the Nazi-style propaganda.
As is always the case with leftists, once you accept their actual motivations, everything they do and say, er, scream makes perfect sense.
That is all.
Ego will resist realization of having been a fool. Some Egos are bigger than others.
Cali transplants in Tx?
Two weeks what happens to the statistics of cases in these states? Are the health departments going to fudge numbers on random tests?
Are institutions going to mandate people all get tested?
What happens when you feel fine and they tell you you have a deathly illness and you are going to die from it? “Do you complain that you feel fine”, and are “getting better?”
Biden used the Neanderthal phrase to dehumanize his opponents. Just as Hitler did with the Jews. The left is using the same tactics. To hell with these commie bastards!
Look up “Social Contagion.”
It explains nearly everything and how they were able to pull this off.
Sadly there are very few conservative psychologists out there and this is where we are coming up very short in the arena of ideas. We simply don’t manipulate people like this.
Conservatives are a problem in that we ...for some reason...keep our wits about us.
I do not see why they are upset. Texas is not outlawing mask. They can wear a mask if they want too, it is a free country.
If you are sick with a bad heath condition like being treated for Cancer, you should wear a mask.
"Jill, what does Neanderthal mean?"
“ I do not see why they are upset. ”
When a conservative believes something is wrong, he doesn’t engage in it.
When a liberal believes something is wrong, he demands it be banned by the government, and penalties for those who don’t comply.
Because they’ve been told, “My mask protects you, your mask protects me.” Which is perfect for them because it justifies forcing others to wear masks.
“I’m gonna keep wearing my mask – I don’t care what that neanderthal Abbott says!”
That is all well and good, it is your prerogative. I however choose not to, which is my prerogative. That is called freedom of choice.
You’re being far too logical. I have acquaintances who are incensed over this. When I tell them it’s their choice to wear a mask, they get irate and I get “everyone should”, but if the mask protects you, why should I worry if I’m not?
You should never wear a mask unless you’re operating on someone and don’t want saliva to drop into your patient.
You mean like they did to convince us there was a pandemic in the first place?
Do you really think the numbers have not alreadybeen fudged?
Good one Liz !
I honestly don’t think it’s going to be easy convincing people that wearing a mask mask is not necessary or effective.
They’ve had the fear propaganda going for so long that people are now going to be afraid to go maskless.
However, if they want to continue to wear one, they are free to do so.
But wait...the Biden Admin. just released 105 covid positive illegals into TX.....what’s up with that SloJoe?
There is one benefit. I don’t have to hide the grimace or scowl on my face when I see someone that disgusts me, which is often.
They have had decades of brain washing, they no longer think for themselves.
