For some, the fall of mask mandates is causing a rise of paranoia
American Thinker.com ^ | February 13, 2022 | Pandra Selinaov

Universal masking was a bad thing. One need only look at a video of children hysterical with joy at getting rid of their masks to see how much children suffered from masks. Adults are not dancing in the streets, but there is happiness at finally being able to breathe again. Such reactions make it all the more tragic that there are still people so terrified of COVID that they cannot bear to see the masks go.

I feel sorry for anyone who is afraid to face the world without a piece of cloth over his (or her) face. I know that there are immunocompromised people who feel they cannot go out in the world if everyone is not masked. I understand the fearfulness of people who are in failing health, but I cannot sympathize with their desire to keep the whole world masked. We all owe God a death, and we cannot avoid it by locking down the world and forcing everyone to cover their faces and keep at a distance for the rest of our lives.

It’s not a natural way to live. Humans evolved to recognize each other’s expressions and to use those expressions as an adjunct to communication. Cutting off our ability to socialize in a normal way has caused far too much psychological damage already. Some people have actually become addicted to their masks. Many are experiencing anxiety at the thought that their friends and neighbors will be going about with bare faces, as if we didn’t all grow up seeing each other’s faces. The CDC is not helping with dire warnings about the dangers of ending the mask mandates.

“Adults are not dancing in the streets...”

Actually, they are.

Its funny, being from Wisconsin I may go a week without even seeing a mask anymore. Every once in a while I will see a store employee or maybe a child with a mask. But its very rare. Our town did get some covid. A small hand full of old and fat people did die. And then we went back to normal. The vaccine caused more issues than the disease.

To hell with the maskers. I have had more than enough of their stupidity, ignorance, self-righteousness, and selfish tyranny.

The Maryland Morons are muzzling up again.

Yet, somehow, miraculously, for two years I’ve been stomping around “naked and unaffected”.

I have lost all respect for the majority of my fellow Americans.

Cowboy up or stay TF home and hide.

They can still drive around in their car with their mask on.

it will be extremely frightening to give up ones magic amulet masks that stop the evil covid bullets from penetrating ... it’s “science”, you know ...

seriously, that REALLY is the psychology of the nakedness these sheeple will feel without their magic scientific facial amulets ... i strongly suspect that legions will never be able to stop wearing their masks without completely breaking down ... however, they’ll quickly realize what a conspicuous visual minority they are in public and won’t be able to handle being such obvious herd outsiders and will soon refrain from appearing in public at all ... consequently, i predict a MASSIVE wave of post-covid agoraphobia ... remember, you heard it here first ...

“I feel sorry for anyone who is afraid to face the world without a piece of cloth over his (or her) face. “

I don’t. Their compliance to tyranny and the big fat lie about the effectiveness of masks makes me hate their guts. If they hadn’t been so STUPID and gullible, this travesty would’ve ended months ago.

Agree 100%!

Only good thing is with the face diaper and sunglasses, you could avoid that jerk from Accounting if you saw him coming at you in a store.

So today marks Day 17 of large to massive 24/7 rallies and protests in the streets of Ottawa, Ontario.

If you haven’t been watching on livestreams, thousands of Canadians have joined the Freedom Convoy protests. Social distancing and masks are non-existent. The Government is apparently too stupid to realize that covid is not ripping through the crowd. Yesterday’s crowd was so huge the livestream guys could hardly move.

The glorified flu is over.

NO body, except Joe Biden, needs to go to Delaware. The paranoia there reaches the level of psychotic.

Did you know that Delaware lies mostly SOUTH of the Mason-Dixon line, and was therefore considered a “slave state”, much like Maryland? And that they were specifically EXEMPT from the Emancipation Proclamation, as was Maryland?

How is that for schizophrenic?

I can understand. The DuPonts were prone to marry their cousins.

I see this ALL the time.
Driving, sitting in parking lots piddling with their phones, obediently muzzled up.

Idiots.

Saw two women walking on a trail yesterday wearing masks. I’ve seen them running with masks on.

I wonder if a chicken ‘paw’ would be just as effective?
They sell them at Sav-A-Lot and the dogs wouldn’t eat them.
Might as well find another use for them.
Hang it around my neck on a
string.


“MASSIVE wave of post-covid agoraphobia”


Good.
I detest being around a lot of people anyway.
