The whole idea of trusting an anonymous mass of strangers with the responsibility for the health of the vulnerable is idiotic to begin with.
The motivation behind the mask mandates never was the protection of the elderly but psychological warfare, blackmailing people into compliance, create a public mood of permanent emergency, deprive the free and self-thinking people of their freedom.
I mentioned to one of the fully masked workers at the local library yesterday that masks don't do anything, and he was about to counter that but change his mind. As Steve Kirsch has shown repeatedly they don't do anything. In a hospital masks do have a function especially during operations, so that large amounts of spit, or other human generated infectious material does not get spread.
I'm batting zero trying to convince other people. Also kids some kids want to keep wear masks, or when asked say that they are waiting to see what other kids do. Don't they know how deleterious to mental health the wearing of masks are?
I see many people who I have this conversation with are in a terrified brain damage state. Basically the state has threaten you for 2 years constantly about the scamdemic, they were threatening you with loss of livelihood if you do not follow the narrative etc. So basically the people must believe that something 'serious' was going on otherwise they could not deal with the cognitive dissonance that they got conned so badly...
Wearing a mask sharply increases concentration of co2, lowering oxygen concentration. That quickly diminishes cognition. It's a vicious cycle that makes them too stupid to realize the damage they're doing.
I have experienced that these many people (in a terrified brain damage state - which I agree with) turn around and threaten, as much as they are able (and some are quite able) the livelihood of others whom they deem not sufficiently following the narrative. Their terror has made them terrorists of a sort. The masks are a signal, nothing more now. A symbol that identifies and binds together an alt society of fear porn-loving gestapo.
I don't engage with people on this issue cuz--as noted below--it's a mentally ill religion at this point. But I've often wondered if there is ANY number of excellent studies, ANY body of evidence--and it's huge--would convince these people? I don't think so.
Principles over personalities, please. I don't condemn people behind their backs and you will never win any converts to the truth with such slams but engender a cult like group at odds with the other cult like group that refuses to talk to the other side.
No, they don't know masks damage their mental AND physical health. Science and the critical thought necessary for science have been indoctrinated out of several generations. It's the major failure of our society. Kids are malleable. It's how they learn. Adults aren't. They get set in their ways and ignore anything that conflicts with their biases. The solution isn't giving them facts they can't process, but playing their emotions. It's how advertising works. "New and improved" is meaningless but it works well to sell repackaged products. Pandemic sanity only requires repackaging the destructive ads. Repackaging the ads will require removing the destructive people who have marketed the destructive actions.
IMO, respirators work when used properly. Masks, probably not so much unless transmission is primarily through large droplets and you have a person coughing all over the place. That said, you shouldn't mistake someone not willing to debate you for being a coward or whatever else you want to believe. I don't believe the vaccines are worth anything, yet I don't take every opportunity possible to debate it with strangers who believe otherwise. What do you possibly think you could get out of that?
The tyranny persists because we allow it. We need to convince just a few more to shift sentiment enough to make it stop. Evil persists when good men do nothing.
I'm all for trying to change someone's mind, but that's not going to happen by harassing a stranger over their beliefs. When a belief is ingrained, it takes time to come around to a new thought process. I'm someone who was pretty supportive of the CDC early on and wanted the vaccines to work (and I also felt HCQ was probably worthless). My viewpoint has changed, but it wasn't like someone turned on a light switch, it was a gradual process that took place over many months. So with people I care about who show a genuine interest, I'll discuss my opinions and understand that it's going to take time for them to come around, but I don't see a brief interaction with a stranger (where you're telling them they're wrong) causing some kind of an epiphany. More than likely they're just going to feel harassed and become even more obstinate, especially if the person chiding them acts condescending.
Chiding and condescension actually work pretty well. But assaults are not all handled the same. Sometimes diplomacy works, sometimes we need to go nuclear. Lots of intermediate options. Tactics should always be tailored for the conditions at hand. The key thing is to keep in mind that we are being assaulted, lethally so for many people. Those who choose not to submit to assault need to be prepared to defend. Diplomacy isnt working.
You can be sure the assaults will continue until we defeat them, or we surrender. This is not an academic engagement.
Actually, there was an RCT that showed masked surgeons had a *higher* rate of post-op infections compared to unmasked surgeons. I can try to find a link to it.
I'm wondering about how many lung conditions will be caused by inhaling fibers (synthetic or natural) along with whatever dye, soap, fabric softener, etc, etc, for two entire years is gonna do to these mask adherents.
Some of them are so brain washed, it'll probably take a doctor and a diagnoses of some disease to get them to stop. But really, people like that have bigger problems coming for them on the horizon.
The consequences of that gene therapy experiment will be seen for years.
As of tomorrow in NY State masks are no longer required for K-12. People shouldn't be celebrating this they should be incensed at how these kids have been brutalized over the past two years- many are.
A friend sent this to me yesterday. The principal from a local high school in NY sent this note to all parents. I see it as the manipulative, enabling ravings of a hypochondriac which perpetuate the psychological trauma through the "voice of compassion and understanding" and panders to parents who remain superstitiously attached to having a cloth diaper over their child's breathing apparatus as a health intervention.
Instead of reassuring the kids there is nothing to fear, there never was, we get crap like this:
"Greetings,
I am sure that we all are experiencing many emotions right now. Some may be feeling relief, some may be feeling anxiety and some of us quite frankly simply don't know what to feel.
This journey from pandemic nightmare to endemic reality has been so very long. And, we simply do not know what the future holds. But we do know that our _______ community has been intentional, caring, understanding and loving. We have not had any school related outbreaks. We have supported our students and staff who have contracted COVID and all have returned to our community with physical health and emotional support.
Our community has been diligent about symptom screening and staying home when necessary. We are so grateful and we will continue to do so. We also will continue on-site testing and will encourage 3 feet social distancing. We have plenty of N95 masks for all students and staff, should you choose to continue to wear a mask at school.
The next 48 hours will be a journey. If you are stressed about sending your child to school on Wednesday please know that you can reach out to myself or a member of our support team staff and we will talk it through together.
Next up: the CDC makes a breakthrough discovery. Seasonality. Unherd of. Brand new science. Pretty soon they're going to discover prophylactic protocols and Ivermektin too - with science! For the first time ever!
No, still says deaths... "Due to success of science and mask mandates, 7 months later, the mandates were lifted, when deaths were 72,225 per day and deaths were 1,684 per day."
Making mask wearing optional has helped me distinguish between the freedom-loving people and the sheep. Where I live in California, 95% of the adults are still wearing masks inside. We've got a long way to go here.
I live in California (Bay Area) and although masking requirement has been dropped, well over 50% of people continue to wear them. We live in our own parallel reality. I personally prefer raw dogging oxygen.
At least in other places, the lunacy is slowly going away. Here, in Western Australia, the emperor, sorry, premier has decreed that level 2 restrictions will be in place from Thursday. This means that all kids year 3 and up will be required to wear a mask for 7-8 hours a day. All this is backed up by yep, you guessed it - SCIENCE. Never mind that NSW will drop all masking from this week (to the fury of the health officials). The saddest part is that there so many hypochondriacs that never want this to end. The NSW premier was called everything from murderer to psychopath by the Masks or We all Die brigade. To make matters worse, the media is all in as well. Being a numbers person (I do data analytics for cyber sec) life feels like a never ending bad episode of some post apocalyptic world. Still, many thanks for the writeup - it gives me some hope for the long term.
🤔 I'm no mask advocate. Having made that clear, something about this lock-step, coordinated reprieve sets off my "Officially Dubious" alarm. Any mystery illnesses at Olympic homecomings, yet?
Language has the magnificent power to be simultaneously nuanced and pointed. It's NOT possible to read the wording of Iceland's official lockdown capitulation without a very different message coming to mind...

It has become this weird religion for many it seems.

Brilliant, I can tell you are not wearing a mask routinely
And when I do, I wear it badly.
Me too! Always wear it REALLY badly to annoy people…nose poking out ear strap hanging off, chin out, using it to wipe my nose! THAT is fun.
Consider that certification of sanity...and intellect.

Interesting typo replacing deprivation with depravation, which probably isn't a real word, but should be. It fits our situation well.
Typo?
It’s better suited than the gentle euphemisms currently in play, for sure.
Always interesting what the human eye can see and ears hear.
THE IRS...remember that next month!

Right you are! The mental health fall-out from this “campaign” will continue to be immeasurable.

The fabric softener residue alone is enough to destroy one's lungs.
I believe in peanut butter and Peter Pan
Jif or bust!
I’m still struggling with Peter Pan’s gender identity.

so ALL mitigations have failed then
Next up: the CDC makes a breakthrough discovery. Seasonality. Unherd of. Brand new science. Pretty soon they're going to discover prophylactic protocols and Ivermektin too - with science! For the first time ever!
And 2/3 of voters will believe them.
Need to change to “cases”. when “deaths”were 72,225 per day and deaths were 1,684 per day.
edited, thanks
No, still says deaths... "Due to success of science and mask mandates, 7 months later, the mandates were lifted, when deaths were 72,225 per day and deaths were 1,684 per day."
re-updated sorry
Making mask wearing optional has helped me distinguish between the freedom-loving people and the sheep. Where I live in California, 95% of the adults are still wearing masks inside. We've got a long way to go here.
I'm in northern California and a shocking number of sheep are still wearing masks outside.
I live in California (Bay Area) and although masking requirement has been dropped, well over 50% of people continue to wear them. We live in our own parallel reality. I personally prefer raw dogging oxygen.
To think people actually believe - TWO years later! - these amulets do anything is unnerving.
Follow the science, not The Science™.

Remain vigilant, everyone. Something definitely isn't figuring.
Perfecto! Thank you.
