Greenie freaks versus COVID control freaks.

Masks are worse than useless. They also are ultimately poison for the environment.

We dined this weekend at Bill’s Café, the oldest continuously owned family restaurant in Collin County, Texas. The waitresses wear t-shirts that say, “Bless our troops, especially the snipers.” What’s not to love?

As if it could get any better, there wasn’t a single mask to be seen at Bill’s, and the place was packed.

You might say the folks at Bill’s were doing their patriotic duty to “follow the science” and to be good stewards of the environment.

The science, contrary to the talking heads who want to run (and not incidentally ruin) your life, says masks are utterly ineffective in keeping you from catching or passing on the China virus. Zero percent effective.

SNIP

According to OceansAsia, a Hong Kong-based environmental group:

“More than 1.5 billion disposable face masks will wind up in the world’s oceans this year -- polluting the water with tons of plastic and endangering marine wildlife...”

“Single-use face masks are made from a variety of meltblown plastics and are difficult to recycle due to both composition and risk of contamination and infection,” the report says.

“These masks enter our oceans when they are littered or otherwise improperly discarded, when waste management systems are inadequate or non-existent, or when these systems become overwhelmed due to increased volumes of waste.”

Apart from depersonalizing every human encounter (don’t you miss seeing smiles, even frowns?), and aside from existing principally to exert government control over you, masks are worse than useless. They also are ultimately poison for the environment.

You would think we could start a shooting war between the VaccerMaskers and the Greenies.

Watch the media start to spew this talking point.

A few weeks ago we went out deep sea fishing off of Florida’s west coast. It’s become completely normal to see floating blue masks in the marina and even in the channels headed out to open water. We pick them up as we can. What completely boggled my mind was that we picked up SIX of these masks WHILE WE WERE FISHING... 30 MILES OUT!

This was previously unconscionable to me, but here we are. Either people are wearing masks until they reach their fishing destination (unlikely) or these masks are making their way out to the open ocean like current-fueled cloth jellyfish. Which makes me wonder how many turtles have mistaken these masks for meals?

“Watch the media start to spew this talking point.”

To what end? President Trump wasn’t the one insisting we all mask up! They’re certainly NOT going to blame this on Crazy Uncle Joe!

But when more sea creatures start forming legs and coming on to dry land to take us to task for our sins, there’s going to be big trouble! ;)

The 2nd amendment will become subject to health concern over firearms in homes?

Thousands of others have already circumvented Public Health CONTROL by obtaining Ziverdo,Now we need to get hold of 15 minute tests by Abbot.

https://www.abbott.com/corpnewsroom/diagnostics-testing/over-the-counter-rapid-COVID-19-testing-in-your-hands.html

Right now we are being controlled by un-elected health bureaucrats whose job it is to frighten the public.Those who press drug therapy and freedom of individuals to treat themselves with the 15 minute Abbot test and Ziverdo for example....no one is talking about that in government .Both the test and Ziverdo should be available over the counter without prescription.

Instead we are regaled with the falsehood that we don’t want our health care system to be overwhelmed.I don’t give a crap if its overwhelmed.Neither do the public, we just want to live.

As a matter of fact the system is sure to eventually be overwhelmed. The battle against this virus needs to have weapons in the hands of the people themselves, not metered out by a professional group of draconian jokers like Fauci
or Whitmer/Cuomo idiots.

But the rumblings are beginning. People are getting sick of living in fear without freedom. In the USA, these guys are making waves:

Dr. Pierre Kory video must see: Ivermectin

And in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, the Health Authorities have been sent packing.The Wrath of God, LOL:

We are not going to put up with it much longer IMHO.

Lol, I one time tried to rile up the PETA folks against the Vegan folks for the very real pet abuse when they force their carnivore pets to become Vegan. :)

Because they are aware that the mask idiocy was the previous talking point, and they've been yammering about it for a year. Now the pivot back to the greeniac global warming hoax is necessary, and they will dutifly do as they're required by the DNC.

Four BILLION masks are used each day. That means four billion new masks have to be made each day.
If we quit using masks, the mask makers will be out of a job, so the fear must continue to keep these people in jobs.
