Covid Nazi: Costco turning tyrannical
Citizen Free Press ^ | 5.19.20

Posted on 05/20/2020 5:16:48 AM PDT by spacejunkie2001

We need to proactively reach out to these companies that are allowing this behavior and tell them it is NOT acceptable. I just left a message for the CFO of Costco and I highly recommend you all do the same.

The forcing of masks on us like we're sheep is completely unacceptable and if we don't step to the plate and push back on this they won't stop.

It's a private business. They have the right to demand that everyone shop in bikinis, to say nothing of facemasks. You have the marvelous right not to shop there if you don't like their policies. Isn't freedom (and specifically the freedom that is capitalism) grand?

I wear masks when going into stores, and I think businesses should have the right to mandate masks. It’s better to do this at the company level than have a government mandate.

I think the virus was hyped. I pretty much think it was just the flu, bro.

But I am not outraged if a company has a mandatory mask policy. They may lose some business because of it. That’s their problem. I am not likely to demand that the company change their policy. It’s not my business.

But it’s different for the government to mandate a mask for me. That is something I don’t like.

Nonsense.
Pure nonsense.

Stores can turn you away for not wearing shoes or a shirt.
They can certainly do it for not wearing a mask during a Pandemic.

Don’t like it? Shop elsewhere.

I spend over $1k per month at Costco and will let all those executives know I will cancel my membership if they allow ignorant dumbasses into Costco without facemask.

Agree. For instance if someone doesn’t like Costco policy go to Sams, Target, kroger super stores, etc,etc.

Folks...Please...if that is Costco company policy they HAVE THE RIGHT TO DO SO. I am 100% not going to wear a mask but I DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT to go into a PRIVATE BUSINESS that does not have a LAW prohibiting it from telling me that as a condition of going there they want me to wear a mask.

Now, that being said, if the state or federal government has a rule or law saying that this private business CANNOT force a member to wear a mask as a condition of coming in then I am ALL IN on FORCING CostCo to comply.

This is the wrong battle to choose.

I was in Costco a week ago and talking to my wife on the phone with my mask down. I was in front of that glass area behind the meats. I heard a loud tap on the glass. One of the workers pointed to her mask and mine. I pointed to my phone. She did it again. I waved her off and turned my back on her.

End of story. I don’t suffer Karens. I live in Kentucky where Costco is fairly new. But I moved here from Seattle. They always marvel at my membership inception date, 1988. Fir most of the employees I come across, that is before they were born.

BTW, I just parted ways with my church temporarily over this. They are welcoming everyone back starting next week but you have to wear a mask and social distance. I played bass in the worship team, taught some sunday school and participated in jail ministry. I told them I’ll be back when they no longer require masks.

I’m actually doing it for them. I abhor the whole mask nonsense and consider it MSM conditioning. If I was in Sunday school or service, all I would be thinking about is how everyone is being brainwashed. I would be angry and I would be losing respect for the other members by the minute. We are told to not be contentious in church so, for me, it means I can’t go as long as masks are required.

You do realize masks don’t do anything.

Hong Kong flu 1969 was so much worse. So shut up.

If you don’t want to wear a mask into Costco, don’t go. Their store, their rules.

With this I agree. And that is why, even though I’ve been a member since 1988, I’m avoiding the place now and we might actually cancel our membership.

We’ll see how it’s going a month from now.

Not much different between ‘mask’ and ‘mark’
