Mask Fanatics Have Officially Abandoned Science To Control Your Life

It’s nothing new for political religions to produce radicals that develop their own sects or cults. This time around, rigid devotion to enforcing mask compliance has produced runaway fanaticism based on nothing but blind faith that more mask-wearing is always better. Even the public health experts, whom these followers all promoted as great prophets just months ago, can’t tame their fervor.

That’s a problem, because a return to normalcy will require subduing radical factions that agitate for oppression. Restrictions such as mask mandates are like oxygen to followers of radical fundamentalist Covidianism — the abiding belief that only lockdowns, social distancing, and masks can deliver us from the deadly pandemic. The longer mandates stay in place and experts continue promoting mask use — “My mask protects you! Your mask protects me!” — the stronger and more widespread the extremism will grow, and the less influence experts will have over their behavior.

Well you could try a burka instead of a mask.

Speaking of attention whore Fauci, i was at the grocery store shopping and i noticed they have a cardboard cut of Fauci in the store with a mask on. I almost lost it.

[central_va]

Nothing says I’m a COVIDiot like the mask.

[who knows what evil?]

Indeed...cult of the mask.

[yoe]

Neat point 👍

You don’t have to apply makeup anyway...

““If masks capture viruses (virii?), why don’t they have to be disposed of as hazardous medical waste?”

The answer is that the virus doesn’t live very long in the “mask” environment.

I just tell the employees I am wearing the new Invisa-mask™.

In a sane world, both Scarf and Fauxi, would be locked in GITMO by now as domestic enemy combatants for what they foisted upon the economy and the People. Especially, that little, PIAPS-loving, commie-weasel Fauxi. He funded that lab over there and likely colluded on the development of that CCP bioweapon. Hanging them is waaaaay too good for the pair of em.

It has become hijab. Especially when they say “Wear a mask, but not the patterns we don’t like.” If your life depends on it, you don’t get to tell me I can’t wear one with a flag or MAGA on it.

[DuncanWaring]

Sez who?

How long does it live in the “mask” environment?

[JoanSmith]

Medical “science” is a scam. Most doctors don’t know s**t. They don’t think like engineers, which is unfortunate since the body is a complex system.

[ConservativeDude]

I think persuasion is best

empower people not to live in irrational superstititous fear

I’m going to start telling people this:

If I choose not to wear a mask, but keep my distance from you who do, and you think I’m going to kill you - YOU need a better mask!

1. Politics and social activists are always looking for an issue to exploit. They stir up the masses in some next apocalyptic disaster unless we vote for them. Example, Biden and his goofy ass mask. Global warming, acid rain, ozone hole... It’s always the same M.O: It’s an emergency that requires immediate attention or else all the rain forest will be chopped down, we will asphyxiate because the trees are all dead from acid rain, get skin cancer from an ozone hole...

2. Government is always willing to help. They will always jump on the band-wagon and save us from immediate extinction by writing more regulations and of course creating some form of tax. Of course government agencies protecting us need a bigger budget and more people to provide this new essential service in the war on drugs, against the corona virus, to make sure you don’t have a pair of seal skin boots as you cross the border or track how many decongestant pills you purchase. If it were not for a US government agency regulating everything, earth would begin to spin backwards, wobble and fall into the sun.

3. The news media of course is bias, but they are also always on the search for that next new story because their goal is to maximize viewers and sell commercial time. So hyperbole, controversy, conflict, shock, fear, greed, pop culture crap is what they sell. They will take whatever the trash of the day is and beat the drum 24/7 (if that gets people viewing).

4. Then you have the corporate interests that have learned to exploit these issues, from Du Pont which made billions off the ban of older refrigerants, subsidies to green businesses like Tesla, big pharma and their games with vaccines, etc.

But that is how it goes, and it will continue. Why you ask? Because just like we first crawl, walk and then learn to run, there is an endless supply of younger folks (they tend to be more susceptible to this nonsense) that lacking the wisdom get excited about the next big impending apocalypse, unless of course we vote for X, buy a Y, and watch it all unfold on network Z.

LOL! Was it a life-size cutout, suitable for posing with his likeness? Where in the store was it located? Lots of possibilities for memes. Place him in the vegetable bin like the Travelocity gnome. Slap a price tag on it a la Hee Haw's Minnie Pearl's hat and toss it into your grocery cart.

Twenty years ago, I would agree with you. Today, not so much...

[freepertoo]

HA!! :0D

Madison said that “crisis is the cry of the tyrant.” I think we’re seeing that play out before our very eyes.

Governments Will Impose New Covid-19 Lockdowns/Restrictions If They Think They Can Get Away with It!

This just sends chills up the back of my neck and made the hair on my arms stand up!

I have some African DNA, which meant that those ancestors were slaves. Any documentation shows that they and their descendants were Free Slaves by the 1700’s.

At one time some of my ancestors were slaves or indentured servants.

As per AG Barr* cited below, now my descendents of all races/ages are losing their freedom due to the illegal lockdowns

*In remarks Wednesday night at an event hosted by Hillsdale College, Barr called the lockdown orders the “greatest intrusion on civil liberties in American History” since slavery. 9/16/2020
