If you read the articles you will see that Fauci was referring to ordinary drugstore type masks, not medical grade such as the N95 (which is highly effective). Also, when he made that comment in February, 2020, he was advising ordinary citizens not to wear them because N95 masks were in short supply, and they were needed for medical workers. Once the shortage ended, he recommended mask wearing for the general public. Some on the right called this a "flip flop," but it was really nothing more than changing his recommendations as the situation changed, which is the intelligent and responsible thing to do.

Still defending that fraud. Pathetic.

Obviously not. They’re still defending that liar. They actually believe his lies at this point. It truly is a “mask cult” at this point.

A weird disturbing mask cult showing how easily duped and manipulated people are today especially by the MEDIA (DEMOCRAT Propaganda). Worst mass manipulation since Hitler and many elements of the same.

It's all a giant conspiracy to get people in every country to wear masks! Yes! That's what it is. They've won. I'm not sure why anyone would benefit from this or how the governments are benefitting, but I'm sure that's what it is. Makes much more sense than them trying to mitigate an illness that's in every country across the world.

What's to 'tolerate'? Why even use a negative connotation? Do you wear socks, underwater, a hat? Get over over your make believe indignation and wear a mask when you need to.

Its more like cultish behaviour, as if people think they are serving some greater purpose by masking up and joining a self sacrificing fraternity. Its this generations cause celebre, not unlike the civil rights movement or prohibition

Normal Human interaction involves looking at someone’s face. Not their penis, vagina or ass.
