Public service message from back east:

It's time to eliminate mask requirements. The game is just about up....
How about just a little bit of freedom?
Celebrities at the super bowl don't need to mask up and neither do your politicians.... but you are making your school kids wear them? End the madness.

Anyone with congestion or symptoms of a cold should wear a surgical mask and not be stigmatized for it. Anyone with fragile health should wear an N-95 respirator or better.

As for the rest, sure. Unmask. My healthy neurotypical kids don't have a problem with masks, but there are plenty of kids who struggle with all sorts of mental issues and mass-masking really seems to bother those at-risk kids more than COVID-19 bothers anyone who is vaxxed.

Also, Pennsylvania is like one of the worst states in the country. If I lived there, I would hang out on other forums as well, until I could move somewhere great. So I hope the OP is someday successful enough to make it in California.

Tomorrow we get some of our freedom back.

Those poor kids though - shameful.

Very few people anywhere have the slightest idea how little freedom humans have had since … well, since we left the caves. But more contemporaneously, since the digital age has brought conformity and compliance and data-mining and psychological conditioning to stunning extremes.

Aldous Huxley saw it presciently back in the 1930s. Now whiners hilariously chant and protest masks as infringements despite the same people having totally abdicated their minds and souls to control by designed consumerism.

Truly amusing.

Funny thing is, her about 9 yr old kid didn't have a mask. The boogerman works in mysterious ways today. This was after the first wave of Newsom driven hysteria said we didn't have to wear one. Until we had to. Mask on, mask off. Nope. Didn't play the game.


Then again, I worked at a 7/11 smack on the beach and we had a sign out front, no shirt no shoes no service. Like I was going to enforce that nonsense with bikinis and bare feet all day. Nope.

Masks are a way to a depersonalized, sad world. A true dystopia.

“Masks” ??? Lololololololololololololol …

I knew a woman once who wanted a handrail installed for her two steps down kitchen to dining room transition. She was worried about her safety. She smoked two packs of cigarettes a day, smoked weed morning till night, ate a crappy diet, and was an alcoholic.

That’s about the same level of nuts as thinking masks are the path to oppression while we all live integrally with cyber-lifestyle and data-mining surveillance, by our own volition.
