Forcing People To Wear Masks Isn’t Kind, It’s Selfish

“Keep your damn disease to yourself.”

You presume the silly notion that the virus is spread from healthy people, and that the “disease” comes the virus. In reality the virus is simply doing what pathogenic viruses do, turn an unhealthy person’s body into a virus factory. Instead of insisting that others re-breathe their own viral, bacterial and CO2, why not take the simple step of getting your vitamin D levels tested, raise it to 75 ng/mL, take 30-50 mg chelated zinc per day (with ionophore), take b complex daily, and keep a supply of vit A and vit C on hand if your start feeling under the weather? In the meantime your be protected against many more pathogens plus cancer.

This CCP virus and its effects on the Republic won’t go away until smart people take control of their own health and wellness.

Yes, yes, and yes.

“...Said the guy who’s scaaaaared of wearing a mask.”

Why wear a mask, when it does nothing to keep people (outside of OR’s) from getting sick?

Try covering your head with a plastic bag, and tying it around your neck. 100% protection for others. Oh wait...you’ll suffocate because of lack of O2.

Restricting fresh air doesn’t keep anyone healthy.

“what does frighten me is what I would say to some lippy little ninny that gets all uppity and in my face about not wearing a useless diaper over my mouth and nose...”

We seem to have a bunch of Dem moles on FR. How else does one explain FReepers buying in to the whole scamdemic narrative? And if we do it for cv19, guaranteed we will also do it for every other scamdemic which comes down the pike.

A Brief Lesson in Fear & Ignorance

In my 54th year as an environmental health and safety professional in heavy industry and big agriculture with extensive direct experience in the use of personal protective equipment (e.g., masks) and, even more important, with the limitations inherent in the application of PPE, I offer the following for your consideration and as a public service.

The belief in using a talisman to ward off an evil spirit (e.g., wearing a mask to stop transmission of respiratory virus) is based on a deep-seated psychological fear which, when combined with breathtaking ignorance and unshakeable trust and complete confidence in the persistent lies told by "experts" (because "experts" never lie; rather, they're only "mistaken" although sometimes on purpose), is similar to the tenets held by most non-secular religions and is not subject to rationality or reason, and which condemns any apostasy against the belief.

Consider the following "helpful advice":

-- Because of the way most everyone who has not received formal training in the use of a mask incorrectly selects, applies/seals, wears and maintains their mask renders it not just ineffective, but completely ineffective against this respiratory virus, you should not wear a mask outdoors (a clear indication the wearer is rationally impaired), and only in specific circumstances should you wear a mask indoors (e.g., in a dense crowd with limited space for an extended period; entering an area with an environmentally-sensitive population such as a nursing home or hospital; robbing a bank, etc.) Please note that I did not include "wear a mask if you have symptoms or if you're sick". If that's the case, you should stay the hell home until you get better because the mask isn't going to stop you from transmitting the virus nor, to contradict a particularly vile lie of the "experts", will a mask prevent the virus from infecting an otherwise healthy person.

-- If you are unable to deal with the invectives, demands, volume, wild-eyed stares, screaming and crying, and other torments and forms of hysteria practiced by those who are "offended" by your freedom of choice not to wear the talisman, you should understand that fear, ignorance and cowardice, in combination with wearing a dehumanizing mask which also hides the masker's identity, often causes even normally decent, reasonable people to behave otherwise -- to the point of acting inhumanely -- toward other people who aren't "on the same team" ... who refuse to hold inviolate the mantras of "we're all in this together" and the particularly annoying "better safe than sorry."

I hope these suggestions are helpful to those who hold Liberty above complete safety to understand, if not tolerate (to a point) the behavior of tens of millions of Covid Cowards who have been lied to, cruelly treated and even punished severely by politicians, unelected bureaucrats and, of course, "experts" consistently and persistently over the past 12 months.
