Masks aren’t zero cost. They are a very visible indicator that something is very very wrong. They heightened the hysteria and panic. And they are uncomfortable and quite frankly silly. If you are sick enough to need a mask, don’t go out.

The gaslighting around masks, telling people they are crazy to object to being forced to wear one… almost despotic.

And plus, who knows if they even worked! They could have very well made things worse by giving people false security! Yet another uncontrolled experiment forced down upon an unconsenting population. I’m not some lab rat to be used for study by some “experts.”

2020 was the year society threw out all its ethics, morals and values in a fit of hysteria and panic. It grosses me out.
