I agree with that 100%. Both sides are doing damage trying to prove a political point. Our health, whatever our circumstances, shouldn’t consider politics first.

I agree 100% that the covid virus(?) was designed as a bio-weapon by China and the left. I believe it was a dud as far as bioweapons go and they had to make a “vaccine” to finish the job the virus failed to do. That’s my opinion. I don’t intend to make everybody believe what I do. Still, it’s a disease that I don’t want to get since I have asthma. If wearing the stupid mask (yes, I dislike them too) helps even a scintilla, I will wear it.

I agree that mandates that say everybody, healthy or not, has to wear one is a scare tactic for control. Still, see the above reason why I do it. I only wear one in intense crowds, never outside, and never in a vehicle. That’s just not necessary IMO but I won’t make fun of somebody that does or call them names.

True story....I was in Tractor Supply about a month ago. There was a sign on the door stating masks were REQUIRED. I go in because I expect people to have them on. I realized that most didn’t have them on. I turned to leave and an anti-masker “Karen” crossed the aisle and put her face right in mine and laughed. I didn’t say a word. I backed up at the same time her husband grabbed her and pulled her away from me. He apologized while she laughed and smirked. Those are the sorts I have an intense dislike for right about now.

When I see people here making fun of people that choose to wear one, calling them names like “sheeple” and “low IQ”, I tend to react due to my personal experiences. I really hope people that do that here are not like that in public. Most of those posts I skim over and probably should all of them. The “hacks” I was referring to are the ones that call names and claim science 100% says they don’t work. You can look hard enough and find anything online that will back up a belief. I’m not sure about that second claim and don’t want elderly people that are more timid told not to do something that might help. That’s all. I think most Freepers mean well even if I think they are wrong.

Here is an excellent instructional on making masks at home (about 4min):

What a witch to do that to you!

I see plenty of people about town wearing masks and I am not the person to judge the motivation of others. Some are elderly, others could have an illness I am unaware of or they just choose to be “safe rather than sorry”.

No matter our difference in opinion no one has the right to attack another person over a simple thing like a mask. It’s like the world has gone crazy and people hav lost the art of common courtesy.

Don’t let it get you down, we’re not all like that horrible woman
