Masks are pure psyops.
More like trying to not attract attention while out and about. Trying to avoid getting shrieked at by some Karen.
Submission.
The Karens can all kiss my butt. One cheek at a time.
I’ve started informing others of the danger of wearing masks...figure it at least distracts them and makes them wonder
Yeah, solidarity. Let’s all conform, follow the leader, like lemmings over the cliff. They die, but at least they die in solidarity with each other.
Virtue-signalling and socialism. The Left in one tidy sentence.
Of course it won’t stop virus particles, but it will stop aerosols, i.e. spit and exhaled vapors, which are present in asymptomatic people.
I don’t like it but the rationale is logical when people are required to be close together. Which is not in any retail store, if common sense is used. Getting a haircut is a case where masks would be appropriate.
I heard it said that if a fart can get through underwear and blue jeans, a cloth mask isnt going to stop no virus.
That guy is full of shit...I suppose if you purposely make a mask to leak you can do it...but most are making masks to protect at least others, and there has been plenty of research to show they do. Two layer, pleated masks have been tested to show they protect about 60 to 80%...put a blue paper shop towel in between the layers and you have 3 micron protection. Just don’t clean in water, spray a little everclear or rubbing alcohol on it. Or, do as we do...shine some UVC light on it.
What is going to destroy the economic recovery are the yahoos who have been brainwashed by this shit and refuse to wear masks.
I wear a mask every time I get a flu and have for years for exactly that reason. I don’t like the idea of making other people, maybe in worse shape than me, sick. If I’ve been wrong all this time, well, it hasn’t hurt me any.
I wore a shop mask out to the store yesterday. You know the type that are clear plastic and cover your entire face, eyes and mouth to keep saw dust and other stuff away from your face.
I got looks of disbelief. The only problem was people could see me laughing.
Do you mean a clear visor, like what the forensic pathologists wear on NCIS?
That’s the only thing I like about wearing the mask to work. I can stick my tongue out at people I don’t like, and they don’t know it.
Absolutely . . . it is forcing you into submission.
I don’t live a mask-mandated state, but if I did I would stain my mask with coffee grounds and such and write on it, “Not washed in four weeks and counting.”
That, or I would have a black mask and write on it in white lettering, “Give me all your money.”
I will not comply. Solidarity my big foot. Freedom trump solidarity.
