Mask bans will not stop crime. Mask bans will not stop protests. What mask bans will do is put people's health at greater risk, and make society less accessible.

@luckytran I suspect that making protesting less safe and, by extension, spending time with those protesting less safe is a feature, rather than a bug, for mask banners.

@luckytran Call me cynical, but I imagine these mask bans would not apply to police officers...

@luckytran

kkkristians want to kill as many as possible, evil cult of death ...

@luckytran It already gave bullies a new excuse to bully.

@stevendbrewer @luckytran can't have that, what would we do with all his money? Feed people? Fund healthcare? Ridiculous! /sarcasm

@luckytran Is that the reason given? That's just stupid. I refuse to make myself dumber by thinking about it. 😠

@luckytran If this isn’t an indicator of the workings of a police state, I don’t know what is.

@luckytran Mapping the mask ban argument over the gun control argument is so infuriating with the whole “Well then only bad people will have guns” standby argument. You can’t protect yourself with a mask, but you can with a gun? Should people just start shooting others that cough in public instead? I was standing my ground against a virus?

Disclaimer: I am not advocating violence, just showing the absurdism of where we are with protecting offensive measures while tearing down defensive ones in the US. It is just a terribly sad state of affairs.

@luckytran not a bug, it's a feature. they can make it easy to prosecute for protests AND they can also help take out the "inferiors" and remove them from society.

@luckytran i like that american politics has reached a point where the right just every day comes up with the worst possible idea, boosts it on social media, and then everyone else reacts to it.

@luckytran It's about owning normal and requiring compliance with however they define normal today on pain of death.

Always has been.

@luckytran When infection is normalised, there is no justfcation for the expense of minimising infection.

@luckytran All this brouhaha is incomprehensible to me. Over the last twenty years I have spent much time overseas in Asia where mask wearing is normal and considered polite behavior. I just don’t get this. I mean I do “get” it actually, but it’s still infuriating.

@luckytran it’s a nonsensical slap in the face for public health. 

@luckytran
So the police in riot gear will have to be barefaced?! I don't think so.

#ACAB including the Governor.

@luckytran Remember when Trump denied COVID as a thing? If these new mask bans come from Trump Toady States, it appears as furtherance of Trump Incompetence and by association the looming Trump Abortion and Contraception Bans in the name of The Evil Empire the GOP is trying to establish. 🤔

@Huntn00
Remember our "Freedoms" ??
No one is going to tell me that I can't wear a mask...
These Hamas supporting protesters are the problem.
That's why the morons are trying to stop people from wearing masks.

@luckytran or turn people who wear masks as anti establishment punks.

Which is fun ;) jk

@luckytran This is, of course, what they want. People who are desperate and ill are people who can be manipulated.

@luckytran forced infection.

the world is getting so terrible… It doesn't feel worth living in anymore.

@luckytran
Yeah...
Especially since Dr.Redfield just announced that H5N1 and H5N2 are probably our next pandemic.
They have been working on a vaccine but it's not ready.
I just ordered masks and gloves today.
The fatality rate for Bird flu is around 25%
The fatality rate for Covid is 0.6
No one is going to stop me from masking.
