Why does the New York Times want Americans to keep a mask in their back pocket forever? Doesn’t that seem like the absolute opposite of what we all as Americans should want going forward in our lives while putting the ridiculous and overreaching mandates behind us?
Imagine bragging about people being COMPLIANT with masking? Look how GOOD those New Yorkers are at obeying! Wow!
Oh, and that tidbit about how when women wear a mask men can’t tell them to smile … that’s a real winner. And street smells? Huh?
So this, from the NYT, is a little creepy.
I’m all for wearing masks if it stops covid, but this elevates them into a totem, good for so many things we never even thought of. It’s like listening to a crypto evangelist. pic.twitter.com/ddJplOTFlT

Yeah yeah, we know, it’s the NYT. But still.
Men smiling at women is now seen as dangerous …
Scowling and Grimacing is much preferred 😂 https://t.co/hW1bt7z71t— Lawyerforlaws (@lawyer4laws) March 21, 2022
I’d love to introduce the person that wrote that we had no clue masks could help “shield against unpleasant street smell” to the entirety of European history, and I’d bet to the history of just about any pre-modern, urban setting.

Actually, as a woman, masks make me even more uncomfortable walking past men I don’t know because I cannot see their faces. 👏🏽 https://t.co/cb9lM0PH7A

It certainly allows bad actors to keep their identity more easily hidden.
There has always been a creepy dimension to the mask phenomenon. https://t.co/mOkbD7A4Hj

It was never really about health, was it? https://t.co/Lv1T1m2DBP

Of course not.
It was ALWAYS about control, power, obediance, and compliance.
If it had truly been about health we wouldn’t have seen countless Democrats breaking their own mandates over and over again.
