The real problem is the paranoid Karens who are actually forcing businesses to do things like this. Most of the businesses, including their employees, would be perfectly happy to be fully open, no masks, etc. This is Florida with there is no statewide mandate, businesses can operate at 100%, and life could be normal. But the left doesn’t want this.
A lot of people watch too much Biden television and are in a state of panic, regardless of reality. And they are the ones who will go in and pitch a fit in a store if other customers are not wearing masks. Then they’ll go online and trash the business, or if it’s a chain, they’ll write to the company headquarters.
There’s a political aspect to this, because I have heard them complain about Republicans not wearing masks! They also hate DeSantis, of course.
The leftists and Democrats here will only give up their masks and imposing those masks on others when they are pried out of their cold dead hands...
I think the only way to resist is to have popular mask burning events the way they did in Idaho!
I am all for mask-burning events, particularly if there are speakers there giving speeches against the plandemic, local bands, vendors who have been out of work all these months selling lemonade and funnel cakes and whatnot, burning of Karens in effigy, etc.
It could be real fun and cathartic.
When it comes to businesses and mask mandates, there may be times when it is not easy to avoid a particular chain that has something you need and that you cannot get at a small store or from the company’s website because some of these companies outsource to Amazon.
I would say go there prepared with flyers to pass out on the dangers of masks, the definition of fascism, an explanation of how the chain is supporting China by perpetuating the Covid hysteria, the customer service email addresses of the major chains in your area with mandates, and a sample email that says you will not forget which chains stood with America and which stood against it.
