Get your muzzle on, you might catch a cold. Do as Jeffery Epsteins friends tell you.

The funny thing is, it actually IS like trying to keep a fart in your trousers.

If someone comes along and farts in your face with trousers on, do you know what happens? You get a face full of stinky fart.

If someone comes and points their BARE ARSE at your face and farts, do you know what happens? You get bacterial conjunctivitis because you just got a load of microscopic **** particles blown into your face.

It can apparently escape a secure high security lab, but a thin piece of cloth is gonna stop it.

Crazy, absolute crazy.

I seriously believe some of these people would chop of their leg if they were told it will keep them safe.

It doesn't completely "stop" it, it reduces the likelihood of transmission and therefore slows the rate of spread, which is a good thing even if it's only by a small amount.

It's really not very hard to understand, unless you misunderstand the purpose of them and pretend that you think they're supposed to "definitely keep you safe".

I understand. The muzzle is incase on the off chance someone coughs or sneezes. It's that simple.

I just don't really understand the issue with masks to be honest... it's not a gag, it's not a muzzle, it doesn't actually restrict anything at all. You can speak in them... they don't restrict breathing... they're barely a minor inconvenience. I can only imagine that people's issue with them is "what they represent". I'm going to be honest, I've not been hardcore on Covid avoidance, we went on holiday with my in-laws from England, we used our exemption (my daughter's disability) to travel outside of our area during the early lockdowns, etc... my daughter kicked about with her friends all summer, has been to sleepovers etc. so I'm hardly Mr Covid Safety.

But the masks? My question is "why not?". Why is it such a scary thing? I understand people being against actual restictions - things being closed, activities being limited... but "Oh nooo a piece of paper is on my face how will I cope!" ... it just seems ridiculous .

[bitontheslide]

i wear a mask in public, it's just not that big a deal, but i actually think it has become a psychological crutch to many. They don't now feel safe without one, and it's highly understandable if you have watched people die all around you, but the point is, it doesn't protect the mask wearer, it protects people from them .... so it's all a bit crazy

I do not see it as fear

BBC Text
["Maskless forced to pay up".
It reports that according
to Transport for London, 152 passengers were fined,
a further 125 were kicked off services
and 5,100 people were reminded
to cover their faces by TfL staff
on the first day of a crackdown on masks.
It comes after face coverings were
made mandatory on public transport in England.]

It's important that he was put right, because he's on national television spreading disinformation, not to mention calling for apartheid.

Sure Alf
but the UN Vaxxed
spread it faster

[bitontheslide]

it's not the point Arista, these are fundamental civil liberties issues that are the bedrock of democracy.

What i find interesting is that with no real increased threat to health people are now going bat**** crazy trying to dictate what everyone should do or say. We live in a free country, with free speech. If you don't like what someone says, use reasoned argument to put your point of view and let others decide on their own.

People only seem to want free speech and democracy when it suits them

I don't refuse. If I really needed to go somewhere and I could only go to that place by wearing a mask, then I would. But I don't just follow authoritarian orders because someone on the telly said so.
