A mask stamping on a human face — forever
American Thinker ^ | 14 Mar, 2023 | D. Parker

Teaching and conveying information are one among the most important aspects of writing. Often like a college professor trying to teach undergraduates the vitally important fundamentals of political science and the basics of governmental power.

Fortunately, the far left has been providing an increased number of examples of its inherent authoritarianism

SNIP

This means that those of the far left living in denial can dispense with continually trying to pretend that something is false simply because it's not explicitly proven every five minutes. We on the pro-freedom right often wonder why leftists persist in staying on the wrong side of history, not to mention being tardy with their lessons in comparison to the rest of the class. They're holding everyone else back while we need to talk about the fact that the far left can't let go of its control obsession and its face mask fetish.

You would think that the Cochrane study would have been the last nail in the coffin for face masks, given that for almost three years, we haven't seen a straight comparison that would conclusively prove that they work. Parenthetically speaking, we know that if they did work, the far left would have been able to cite a plethora of studies showing this, and we would have been inundated with this news 24/7. Everyone knows that the opposite happened. Dennis Prager put this all in perspective with his essay, "Why the Left Is Pro-Mask." He contends that the mask mandate is all you need to know about the authoritarian far left. We can't do it justice here, but here is the money quote:

A fourth reason the Left insists on forcing others to wear masks is that controlling others' lives is in the Left's raison d'etre. Controlling others is what leftism is all about.

In Florida I sometimes still see people driving alone in their car with a mask on.

“This means that those of the far left living in denial can dispense with continually trying to pretend that something is false simply because it’s not explicitly proven every five minutes.”

__________

Once yours truly managed to parse and understand this sentence, no easy task before morning coffee, FReepers gas_dr, semimojo and DugwayDuke emerged as perfect exemplars of “those of the far left living in denial”. Constantly demanding fresh proof of everything they disagree with.

Liberals are insecure beings who lose every argument on logic so their only recourse is control. They are not the majority, but they are the loudest. The most pathetic recent example is Biden’s sick, pandering gun haranguing in Monterey, California yesterday.

“Happens here in TX too. FOOLS!”

It is simply that they understand it was a blatent biological attack by the commies, aided and abetted by U.S Marxists and they’re scared.

On the news the other day, it seems that There is a group working for the gov I beleive that is scouring the united states, looking at ground water, sewers, and various other places, searching for “the next big pandemic possibility.”

You know darn well that whenever a conservative is president and gop holds one or two of the houses of congress, that the left will Trott out their claim that “another pandemic is upon us, and we need to get a head of it by locking the country down”, and for p roof, they will point to folks dying from the regular flu and claim that they are dying from the supposed pandemic.

This,will ruin the gop president, and then the left will come charging in “to save the day”, and magically the pandemic will dissappear when they take office.

On another note, March is coming in like a lion. 20,inches in our town, 35 inches a few towns north of us. And that is after another storm previous which dumped 2 feet almost. Yuck!

I think we need to start referring to them as “Mask Nazis”, as they are encouraging and supporting the same sort of blind, paranoid authoritarianism. They may not be the “Mask Hitler” (I think Gretchen Whitmer likely has that title sewn up), but they are definitely “Mask Brownshirts”, or at the very least, enthusiastic (and equally obtuse) “Mask Nazi” party members.

Liberalism is a cult. We're not in a political battle or a battle over science. We're in a spiritual war and have to fight it on those grounds.

The best way to play the long game is for us to be more sincere about trusting Jesus and living for Him than the Dim cult followers are about their fake religion.

Indeed leftists are fascists and want to control everything.

But I partly suspect in the US they love masks because they use them all the time for their riots. This legitimized masks and even makes masks a virtue signal, rather than the traditional mark of scum they are.

Further, there is no question leftists drum up crises all the time. All of their crises are based on false premises, and leftists are just one big non-sequitur. A solution for no reason.

There was a biker convocation in Niihama, Japan recently, the town next door to our sister city (I can't find the video on the NHK site but here is the Facebook link to it). At one point there is a group shot of all the bikers, with the head of the club saying, "The sight of all these smiling faces is something I treasure." What smiling faces? Nearly all of them are wearing masks.

I like the term “Maskerbaters” because they must be getting some self inflicted pleasure from wearing their face diapers. Smug Basturds the entire bunch!

The intolerant, truly nasty people who comprise the American Left including the Democrat/Communist Party remain not only irrationally scared and woefully ignorant about masking and the Fauci Flu, they live their pathetic lives in abject fear of freedom.

Many truly believe that without tight (to the point of oppressive) control of American society by their far Left Democrat/Communist politicians and, especially, the even more powerful and cruel unelected bureaucrats who make up much of government, they cannot survive in a free society ... that they must crush the spirit of Liberty wherever and whenever it exists.

I like the Japanese, but their mask fetish which even the government is now trying to correct is something I can’t fathom.

Yes. This pretty much captures them as well:

“Fortunately, the far left has been providing an increased number of examples of its inherent authoritarianism that we can use to illustrate these dynamics. Most people would agree that these totalitarian tendencies on leftists' part would cause most people to shy away from the tyrannical ten percent. Unfortunately, there are still some "true believers" in the fascism of the far left.”

Blacks, Asians, Lesbians, spinsters with NPR tote bags are who I see with fave nappies the most. Then you have the situational maskers who seem to wear the worthless things in museums and on transport (planes and trains).

Fortunately, I see very few face diapers these days, but there’s still the occasional masked Karen or Kyle in the grocery store. The eyes above those nasty things are almost always angry.
