And the maskers will keep masking and say it’s ‘not definitive’. Just keep your draconian mandates away from the non-insane thank you very much.

Exactly. The paranoid can wear a mask if they so wish, just don't force anyone else to follow the insanity.

Now I regret refusing politely instead of saying “no I will not be participating in your sick occult ritual thank you very much!!!” https://open.substack.com/pub/lionessofjudah/p/mask-wearing-and-occult-ritual-symbolism?r=7csq7&utm_medium=ios&utm_campaign=post

Interesting take here....I think brownstone institute also had a good article on masks and slavery.

I was denied care by my URO-GYN last week after I refused to wear a mask. I told them they give me panic attacks & I will provide them with Drs note. I also asked for scientific proof that masks works. The nurse replied “she’s hasn’t been sick since forever” ... I guess that passes for science now ...

Crazy that they are still enforcing this. In Scandinavia we've been mask free for a year now.

My doctor had stopped requiring masks, but recently started back because one of the doctors that work there has a wife who is going through chemo I think and they said they were doing it out of an abundance of caution.

IMO it was all about trying people out - see how far they can be pushed. Pretty far, huh? I never wore a mask and lost my job because I refused to come to work with my airway blocked. Also received some pretty aggressive comments out in public but that only strengthened my resolve to not comply with anything. One of my favorite quotes: "I was not born to be forced. I will breathe after my own fashion. Let us see who is the strongest." ~ Henry David Thoreau, On the Duty of Civil Disobedience.

You lost your job for not masking? That's insane. People seem to forget how crazy the last few years actually have been.

I did. I worked for a branch of the YMCA and when I balked at wearing a face mask - with a filter underneath it, no less - they took me off the schedule and then terminated my employment after 7 years. And that was prior to the jab rollout!

That is crazy.

Durrrr.

The science didn't change. They never worked. The government lied about it.

To me masks were so obviously worthless from the beginning. All it could do was stop spittle. Putting an overused rag/mask over your face to be allowed to enter was ridiculous, but a mandated requirement. Every time they added a requirement (6 ft distance, arrows taped on floor, maximum occupancy, etc), it was just one more step to control and belittle. Wear a mask into a restaurant, but can take off once seated. Oh my gosh, the insanity. Making children, even toddlers/babies wear a mask!! Just insanity.

Ah yes, people wearing a mask only to take it off to eat and spreading spit everywhere. Peak logic right there! How could people not see the idiocy with this?

You had to mask on the plane, but as soon as you had to eat it was fine to take off and covid would somehow not spread anymore...

Yes! There were so many ‘rules’ that we can look back at and laugh. It was ludicrous from the beginning, but so many took each and every outlandish rule as gospel, do or die, that it made me realize how gullible people really are.

Thankfully all the insanity has made some people realize what is going on though. But sadly so many people still have no clue.

😂 It's so true. I would get hateful looks from this woman at the park for not wearing a mask outside (OUTSIDE!). Then I would see her later, chain smoking outside her apartment. Comical. More people die annually from smoking than from covid.

- More than 480,000 deaths annually (including deaths from *secondhand smoke*)

- The COVID-19 pandemic caused approximately 375,000 deaths in the United States during 2020 (which is overstated due to financial motivations)

The first things we should have done to help prevent people dying from covid was to get them healthy, stop being obese and smoke. But of course that is "fatphobic" now...

Of all the stupid NPIs applied during the Great Covid Dumpster Fire, masks were among the stupidest. To be fair though, the bar is pretty high!

We suffer from both Invasion and Mind War. It's here, and it is the new form of warfare.

Masks were, and are, just about compliance. Submit or we will punish you.

i want to know how many horrifying bacterial infections were caused by the masks in schools...i know of one girl locally who nearly died...

I wonder how many people actually got sick from breathing in through the filthy masks?

My daughter got strep throat, never wore a mask after that, even showed other kids how to get a mask exemption online ..... I live in New Zealand.....there were lots of rules here.

we had our kids wear a washable fake mask with tiny mesh that of course allowed full regular breathing. a brilliant idea that i wished i had invented but we probably spent $50 on fake masks to "play along" with the ridiculous school mandates:)

tons of people got sick from bacterial infections from the masks, lots of strep throat and sinus infections.... the kid we know had some crazy infection that tracked to the base of her skull!!! i mentioned to her father that the dirty masks had to have caused it... he was kind of quiet..."huh, i guess that is possible"...

I am currently in Gran Canaria - no idea if it’s a Spanish rule but everyone in a taxi, bus, pharmacy is wearing a mask. Drives me demented - I get Tourette’s seeing them. It’s so frustrating that people do not understand the danger with their unthinking compliance.

Thankfully I haven't seen masked people in a long time. Here in Norway everyone stopped using them immediately as soon as they removed the mandate a year ago.

In The Netherlands it worked to not wear a mask, with a card carried around that said "I'm not wearing a mask because of health issues" with the logo of the government on it.

These cards were made by a clever guy who took the design from internet, and reproduced it, with plastification. Business card size.

Friends of mine gave me a card.

The design was present online, on health-insurance sites, explaining how patients could discuss this excemption with their doctor, and receive such a card.

Why did we use it, while healthy?

According to the law on privacy, no one may ask us Dutchies to explain our health condition, and so, we got away with it, with a smile kept hidden inside. 😉

The lockdowns , hand sanitizers , face masks / shields and social distancing are all about Societal Control and how far" they" could get people to willingly partake in their own servitude and had NOTHING to do with a pandemic because there was / is no pandemic . A unique illness called COVID has never been proven to exist . They just rebranded seasonal flu and then rolled around the floor in side splitting convulsive laughter as they

watched worldwide , the gullible SHEEPLE falling into line , willingly roll up their sleeves for a population culling poisonous injection and to top it all off most families stocked up on enough toilet paper to reach the moon and back , something which the Apollo missions were never able to do 😂😂😂😂😂. A pandemic of mass stupidity and mass stupidity .

I suspect it's talismanic. An idol worshiping mysticism of sorts towards reaching "sancta". In Eastern Europe they used crosses to keep vampires at bay and garlic for evil spirits so goes the masking. Its crazy to the pragmatic science seeking mind but not crazy to the mystical. I try to impart some reason as I too see this as unsanitary/unhealthy practice.

Did you know that breathing in our own Co2, the content of our outbreath, caught in the mask, lowers the strength of the Immune system?

There were even weirdos saying that wearing masks helped the climate, due to less exhaust of Co2.

We've witnessed the most extreme reactions in people, during the plandemic, and the aftermath of it.

To me, fear is 1 of the most powerful emotional programs preventing sound and sober discernment.

I think I begin to understand the prophecy that goes "In the end times, there'll be a war of all against all."

We now know for a FACT that ppe(personal protection equipment) was a “cash cow” for governments and private entities(usually linked to aforementioned gov!) raking in BILLIONS for a “useless” waste of money based on lies. Sound familiar??!!

Absolutely it was a big profit maker.

• Carøe, in a 2014 review based on four studies and 6,006 patients, wrote that 'none of the four studies found a difference in the number of post-operative infections whether you used a surgical mask or not.'

• Salassa and Swiontkowski, in 2014, investigated the necessity of scrubs, masks and head coverings in the operating room and concluded that 'there is no evidence that these measures reduce the prevalence of surgical site infection.'

• Da Zhou et al., reviewing the literature in 2015, concluded that 'there is a lack of substantial evidence to support claims that face masks protect either patient or surgeon from infectious contamination.'

• Bahli did a systematic literature review in 2009 and found that 'no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative wound infection was observed between masks groups and groups operated with no masks.'

• Surgeons at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden, recognizing the lack of evidence supporting the use of masks, ceased requiring them in 2010 for anesthesiologists and other non-scrubbed personnel in the operating room. 'Our decision to no longer require routine surgical masks for personnel not scrubbed for surgery is a departure from common practice. But the evidence to support this practice does not exist,' wrote Dr. Eva Sellden.

• Webster et al., in 2010, reported on obstetric, gynecological, general, orthopaedic, breast and urological surgeries performed on 827 patients. All non-scrubbed staff wore masks in half the surgeries, and none of the non-scrubbed staff wore masks in half the surgeries. Surgical site infections occurred in 11.5% of the Mask group, and in only 9.0% of the No Mask group.

• Lipp and Edwards reviewed the surgical literature in 2014 and found 'no statistically significant difference in infection rates between the masked and unmasked group in any of the trials.' Vincent and Edwards updated this review in 2016 and the conclusion was the same.
