My fellow New Yorkers, you know what we are doing is crazy: Unmask. It’s time. It’s long past the time.
What happened to us? How are we entering summer 2021, with many of us still masked, despite all the evidence suggesting we should stop?
There was never any need to wear masks outdoors. Even Dr. Anthony Fauci admits that, yet on every street there are people, often alone, continuing to wear a mask.
Some stores continue to require masking, even as nearly 70 percent of New Yorkers are vaccinated.
And our kids suffer most of all, as the science-denying teachers union and a union-captive Department of Education demand children stay masked on 90-degree days, even during recess outdoors.
It’s a mass hysteria, and it’s terrifying.
....
New Yorkers are trained in the art of spotting and avoiding scams from a young age. We know no one ever wins at three-card monte. We know never to take the “free” CD from the guy in Times Square. We know the guy claiming he just needs money for a bus ticket to Rochester will still be here a year from now.
Yet we continue to accept that safety lies in wearing a mask for the 3 feet to the restaurant hostess-stand but removing it for our meal. We pretend that masking while riding a bike or running makes an iota of difference.
Masking has become a religion, and like most new faiths, it isn’t very well thought-out — or humane.
...
We can do this. But it has to start with letting go of our security-blanket masks and acknowledging the mistakes we made. Let’s get back to who we were before the virus, before bad decisions by politicians and tyrannical “experts” broke us. Let’s be New Yorkers again.

Anticipating a pending career change, Fauci, a talented bonaphone player and singer, formed a group, Tony and The Wuhan Lab Rats. They regularly stop shows with their new hit single, “Bats In The Belfry” and their cover (or Covid?) of the Eagles classic “Lyin’ Eyes”.
Good idea - then when they hit the Florida border we can tell them we're closed and to go back to New York.
Just got home from local Walmart. Still about 30% of the people in the store were maskholes.
I wasn’t one of them.
I have not yet been questioned ANYWHERE about being maskless. (NOT being a maskhole).
Even in banks where EVERYONE is a maskhole.
C’mon man. Masks NOT REQUIRED in NY since May 18th, by decree of governor Ayatollah Andrew Cuomo.
Pfffttt. I never wore the stupid things except in a medical facility.
>> They succeeded in getting Trump removed. Now they will do everything they can to keep it that way. So they will keep appealing to people’s emotions.
Yep, they’re wearing masks the way people in the Dark Ages wore garlic to keep vampires away...
Omigosh, that was pretty disturbing. All of those people with such unhealthy attachments to their nasty, unwashed face diapers. Eeww.
