You hear all this "WEAR THE MASK" shit, but never do you hear "change the mask frequently", "don't touch the mask", or "wash the mask". No one does any of that - for all the "misinformation" they attack, these feel like they'd be paramount to note - yet there is a suspicious silence around all of these points. They don't sound marketable do they? You can't shout it at people, it's not sexy enough.

No weave is going to prevent that mask from being a magnet and breeding ground for bacteria, viruses, and other contaminants.

So If this is a life or death situation, what is the point of nullifying the efficacy of what you claim prevents the spread of such a "deadly" virus on behalf of marketability? Why would the supposed truth and facts ever have to be marketable such that you would omit crucial details to the alleged efficacy of what ought to be the first line of defense?

There's no point in washing the mask, it might actually be worse for many of them because it's not getting them clean and might cause loose particles to be inhaled more frequently.

The comments are hilarious over there with retards like this

"I have asthma it is difficult to breath in it but I wear a mask with pleasure all day long thinking to the moment it will be over"

I can't get over how dumb these people are calling other people who can think for themselves "sheep" as they all regurgitate the same shit comment after comment

It's almost cute that there's still people that thinks this ends.

The surgical masks are largely useless - they protect only against large drops of saliva. We see many times that democrat politicians only put the masks on for photo opportunities.

Viruses have leaked out of BSL 4 labs - where the scientist is inside an airtight bubble.

That first fucking source. That's a lot of really interesting words that does show that cotton cloth filters some percent of nanoparticles which yeah no shit but it doesn't matter when the exhaled and inhaled air GOES AROUND the masks. Maybe if the mask was taped on it would work. And there's actual RCTs that shows cloth masks don't protect the wearer from covid- you know actual SCIENCE instead of measuring something else as a proxy.

Masks would protect from covid if covid mainly spread through fomites (which are large enough that momentum should keep them going straight into the masks) but fomites don't seem to be a significant vector for covid- and if it was it would only work if people didn't touch their mask but they do. Everyone just grabs the mask out of their back pocket, sticks it on, walks in the store, touches shit, walks out having deposited their mask fomites in the store and then takes off the mask picking up foreign fomites on their hand and then touch their face. I'm so tired of this inane mask shit.

And furthermore people fucking know the air goes around, they are like "you can't blow out a flame wearing a mask" yeah no shit, if I could I would actually think there is some point to cloth masks. Blow as hard as you can you won't ever make a flame even flutter- BECAUSE THE AIR IS GOING OUT THE TOP AND SIDES!

Yep, everything you're saying is decade's old data that was discovered in peer reviewed studies about how... masks don't work against influenza (unless it has a sealant and purifiers):

I was all prepared to get the vaccine.

But when they started censoring twitter and reddit and hiding the small but real risks of the vaccine - I decided it was my duty to never get it. My doctor has sent me 10 reminders so far.

No - it would NOT have been "over".

Israel has one of the highest vaccination rates in the world and their numbers are skyrocketing as well.

The only "misinformation" here is a buncha reddit mods with their heads up their asses demanding that we listen to Fauci (today - not what he said yesterday) and slavishly believe the authoritarian state.

Useful idiiots.

You forget their penchant for redefining language so that it has a winner and a loser.

Their politics isn't politics, it's human rights.

Your politics is politics and will be excluded.
