I start hacking profusely near them.

Almost NONE here in North Idaho. I imagine the rates are much higher in state capitols (especially in blue states), in university cities and around DC.

It’s probably wise to avoid the maskophiles. Either they are sick and don’t want to spread something, or they want you to think they are sick so you don’t get close to them. Or maybe they just don’t want to be recognized.

"It’s obvious you can scare people into believing absolute nonsense and control their minds with so much fear, they become mindless globs of Jello."

Yes, and "Climate Catastrophe" does that, too.

[Vahan1987]

I previously saw a similar billboard that spoke out in praise of masking up. Sickening.

[so_real]

Well ... weak minded people are ... weak minded.

It’s all about teaching COMPLIANCE….
...not “following the science”:

Masks are:

1) a sign of submission, subversion and subjugation
2) mandated in order to dehumanize
3) virtue signaling devices
4) meant to provide constant reinforcement of fear
5) used to destroy community, friends and family normal communication
6) implemented to create isolation, confusion, anxiety, destroy human connectivity, trust and interactions
7) mandated to exacerbate illness
8) intended to aid in the abandonment of the belief and reliance on our immune systems
9) intended to refute integrous science
10) signal to positions of power that you are willing to give up all of your rights and freedoms based on anything they say, even if it is a BIG FAT LIE!

The American population is looking more like Asians, with voluntary face masking as people go about their daily routines.

Really?

Where?

I sure don't see it.

I think Big Media is lying.

Again.

As usual.

[lee martell]

Could she have been a staff employee, looking for some asbestos?

[sauropod]

Yep.

[sauropod]

Are you ready Freddy?

[lightman]

Hiegh ho, quicksilver.

[monkapotamus]

😂

[toddausauras]

I’m in favor of non mandatory masking. It let’s me know who to think of as a coward and imbecile.
........

Love it!

[roving]

When I see someone wearing a mask, I know who they voted for.

[Mogger]

The virus is often transported by being attached to moisture droplets, which are big enough to be stopped by the masks, the real problem is now you have a concentration of the virus on the mask.

You are going to touch this with your hands and spread it on any surface you or the mask touches. Then you or others are going to touch the mask and/or the contaminated surfaces. Following that, you will touch your face, eat food, etc., and transport the virus into yourself.

Only full MOPP gear, properly worn, with proper decontamination will protect you. You will need at least two other people also in MOPP gear and you will all need to be trained in how to don, test, decontaminate and remove it.

Anything less is just a sick joke.

I have noticed that black people are more likely to wear masks than other races. Asians seem to be the second most likely.

[silverleaf]

Older people and minorities here
Might as well be wearing “ Biden for POTUS” shirts, obvious true believers in the CDC
