Ben Swann has a video over at American Partisan that presents the actual science on the wearing of masks. The truth is there is no scientific reason for the general public to be wearing cloth masks over their faces. As for the N95 masks, again thewe have been shown in randomized controlled tests to be ineffective in protecting against viruses. Dr. Scott Atlas of the Hoover Institute has said the same thing. Either you believe the science, or you don't, and those Karens who fearfully insist we all should be wearing masks simply are not believing the science. Instead, they are letting fear and emotion govern their actions.
I have pondered what on earth can wearing masks mean to the Left. Why the insistence on masking. But it hit me after hearing a BLM activist stating that individualism is seen as a "whiteness" thing, and must be suppressed. Huh...Of course, if everyone is wearing a covering over their faces, that reduces each individual's individualism. The ultimate "mask" is a burqua, where everyone looks the same. This is not new. Think of the New Soviet Man, someone who was an interchangeable part in a vast Soviet machine. It suddenly made sense.
I am both amazed and alarmed by the number of people who have been buffaloed into fearfully panicking over this virus outbreak, and I have been surprised by some of the people who are panicking. Many of them I thought were solid. Some, of course, have been co-opted through threats to their livelihood, or by their spouses.
Frankly, I suspect the only left to do is to pray.
