THIS IS HOW WE FIGHT AND WIN THE MASK BATTLE

(see comments for tactics and useful scientific proof)

https://thedonald.win/p/HEzJp5LE/were-not-gonna-take-it--target-s/

STUDY LINKS, EXPLANATIONS, AND SOURCES OF MASK SCIENCE

Including:

  • why wearing masks hurts health about as much as people think it helps
  • simplified explanations
  • links to original studies
  • quotes from flip-flopping policymakers
  • a debunk of the oft-cited ‘masks save lives’ meta-analysis
  • arguments about why masks are a civil rights issue

BLUEPRINT FOR A MASK CONVERSATION

Start with ‘A year ago if your kid wanted to go sleepover at their sick buddy’s house and they tried to tell you their Spider-Man pajamas mask would keep them safe from getting sick, you’d have laughed in their face...’

(reframing from a common-sense narrative)

Then move on to the Sept 26, 2020 Mask Facts by The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons. It’s a good ‘non-biased’ starting point from a long-respected group, that presents the studies used and a couple great graphs

https://aapsonline.org/mask-facts/

(appeal to authority)

Then show them some ‘maskne’ images and say ‘Obviously SOMETHING’S going on here...’

(attention-getting visual)

Then show them the rest of the studies and tell them the ‘plain-speech’ explanations included...

(logic & reason)

Tell them this is why ‘so many people everywhere are beginning to think this was a bad idea to just blindly believe some government official, whether it’s Trump’s guy or not. Everybody’s looking to find out the truth once and for all.’

(appeal to crowd conformity)

and leave them with:

Why can’t anybody convince us with science that shows why all of this preexisting research was wrong? Why do they just keep saying ‘because we say so” like we’re kindergarteners, especially when they keep contradicting themselves?’

(challenging question)

Good luck. Remember to stay cool and ‘open-minded’. YOU won’t convince them, they have to see it for themselves. Your being fair and practical and calm will help give them ‘space’ to think for themselves. If you get angry or partisan, they’ll dig in with oppositional defiance.

MASKS ARE MEDIEVAL SUPERSTITION

“Our universal use of unscientific face coverings is therefore closer to medieval superstition than it is to science, but many powerful institutions have too much political capital invested in the mask narrative at this point, so the dogma is perpetuated.

The narrative says that if cases go down it’s because masks succeeded. It says that if cases go up it’s because masks succeeded in preventing more cases. The narrative simply assumes rather than proves that masks work, despite overwhelming scientific evidence to the contrary...

History does not bode well for times that politics meddles with science. Martin Kulldorff, a professor at Harvard Medical School and a leader in disease surveillance methods and infectious disease outbreaks, describes the current COVID scientific environment this way: “After 300 years, the Age of Enlightenment has ended.”

In the end, it will be the loss of credibility in our scientific institutions, and the unnecessary division they have sowed among us, for which masks will be remembered.“

Pro Tip: start rocking a coffee travel mug at all times in public. I've had a cuppa going in public for over 2 months in Commie Victoria Australia. FUKKEM. Not Complying. Haven't...aren't.. won't.

Haven't worn their mandatory shit-arse face diaper in public in all that time. It also gives the poor store clerks an excuse to not say anything, so we're both sweet. No-one even asks as they assume that you'll finish eventually and put the gimp restraint back on. Yeah Wotevs Cunts.

Can't make you wear a mask when you're drinking, so keep drinking!

We're not so big on protests in the streets, but the subtle non-compliance is classic Aussie.

Be ready not to lose your cool when it happens. You’ll feel like punching somebody right in the face.

I stopped over a week ago, ZERO confrontations, multiple stores. I smile and chat. Not one person has approached me. If they do, I'll reply: "No thank you". If they are insistent, I'll explain, I'm not going to wear one, so go ahead and do whatever it is you feel you must.

But, nobody has said a peep. "We will teach them how to win."

I wear a mask at work, because my employers require me to wear a mask at work, and I'm broke enough without being unemployed.

I just bought a gallon of milk, 2 pounds of cheese, and a dozen cups of yogurt, without it, though.

Women over think men so much. We're simple creatures. Be pretty. Be smart. Instantly head over heels in love. I would marry this girl sight unseen.
