Why aren't we hollering about masks ineffectiveness?
August 4, 2014 | From The Deer Stand

Posted on 08/04/2021 6:26:42 PM PDT by From The Deer Stand

As Democrats continue infringing on our rights in their zest for controlling the masses, why isn't there a major public outcry? There have been at least a dozen studies showing a minure difference in wearing or not wearing a mask. Students suffer in masks all day, not to mention problems caused in athletics. Even researchers in Sweden have proven the ineffectiveness of masks. Time to get vocal folks. Enough is enough!

It’s all about COMPLIANCE….
...not “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!

No need to holler. Quiety do not wear one, and quietly tell Karen to stuff it.

Get off the internet and into the streets?

Unfortunately, being loud and proud en masse in the streets doesn’t seem to be the way of the Right.

And muffle us when we speak out.

By shadow ban
Outright ban
And Facebook jail

14 days left in the hole for me.

If you tweet that and then you get sick and die you will never hear the end of it.

Why masks? Because if adults walked around with a pacifier they’d look ridiculous.

This is the science ——

Does size matter? The influenza virus is 80-120 nanometers. COVID is similar in size, 50-140 nm. If, as we are incessantly told, masks work to save lives from COVID, then they should work similarly for influenza. Yet COVID cases are high and influenza cases are near zero. Why is that?

The pore size in standard surgical masks is 300 nm to 10,000 nm, far larger than either virus, meaning masks cannot explain the discrepancy. Masks don’t stop either virus, which is why we never masked up during past flu pandemics. Unless the masks contain a pore bouncer, letting in only COVID but telling influenza to get lost.

I don’t own a mask. I like to breathe. I’m weird like that.

Because the test does not differentiate between Covid and the flue.

Masks stop 3% of Covid. It’s like shoveling sand with a tennis rachet.

The number of influenza cases last year was 1822.

The 4 years before, over 30 million.

Okayyyyyy.

To be honest a lot of normals don’t seem to mind wearing them at all. That’s the problem. I’ve been railing against them from the start and I actually don’t get a whole lot of enthusiastic agreement. Sheep.

On second thought, it’s better to holler.

We are. Parents in CA are. But this year the teachers unions and school boards and county Heath directors are no longer the most powerful forces in the schools on the mask issue. Now it’s the insurance companies. They are threatening public and private schools in CA that if they don’t enforce the CA k-12 mask mandate they will cancel their insurance.

I have posted my total dissatisfaction about masks in my posts and never get any FReeper reaction to my criticism.

It is criminal the way masks are put out like hot cakes without any improvements. We have gone a long time with this pandemic and you would expect by now there were improvements.

The way my glasses fog up is a safety hazard. It tells me this is a common malfunction of the typical surgical mask. Meanwhile, from the bridge of my nose to the top of my head becomes a nesting place for covid droplets. No one has said, don’t scratch you head and hand someone money to make a payment. No one has said how to safely adjust your mask when it slips. Do the mask cartons contain detailed instruction on how to best use their mask? No. I am thinking they know there is no way to wear their product to make sure it is giving optimum performance.

So, what is any mask manufacturer doing to improve the design of their product? If someone has seen any mask improvements, I would be glad to see their answers.

Otherwise, crickets . . .,
