I was just forced into retirement at 62 due to a run in with my employer for not wearing a mask at work at a large defense contractor in AL. It seems I could run around without a mask and slide by since March, but once you declare you are not going to wear one, then the fireworks started. For me it's really not about the mask, its the start of resistance to all the things that are coming. I my discussions with sympathetic people talking big about the coming civil war, I tell them I can't count on them by my side if they can't even ditch the mask now out of fear. Also a weird thing I noticed was in the last month everyone seem to gravitate to wearing black masks. I think there is something behind that phenomena but would like people to chime in on that.

Exactly, As much as I disagree with it and would be more then willing to disobey rules I don't believe in because it's not neccesaryily legal to force people to do this private businesses are a little bit different but at parks and shit I don't wear one and it's not legal to mandate masks in public but private businesses can 100% refuse to allow you into their store and plus as you mentioned some people don't live in their moms basement and have bills and people depending on them I just bought a property and don't necessarily have plans to move besides living in a blue state because it's really not bad and it's not a complete shit hole like alot of major democratic state or cities but to some degree it does have it's downsides sales and property tax are pretty damn high but I live in a really good area and federal taxes won't change and our state income tax is really good would probably on consider moving out of the country every where is basically the same plus we have legal cannabis which is sick.

More power to it if you can get away with it, Thankfully. I don't go places often so I am not submitting often but if I had nothing to loose I would be telling them to shove it up their ass.

You have everything to lose by NOT telling them to shove it up their ass.

The longer you play the game, the longer the game goes on.

Nothing to lose? Do you not understand that if we do nothing, we lose anyway?

Does your state have a "medical exemption"?

I don't know about your state, but it is in mine. Check the actual text of the order from your governor/county judge/mayor. In my state, no one is allowed (violation of HIPAA--federal law) to require explanation, documentation, or proof of your medical exemption. I'm RARELY asked to put on a mask now, and when they do, I simply smile sweetly and say, "Thanks, but I have a medical exemption." If for some reason they don't know their stuff and they ask for explanation (they haven't so far), I would simply smile sweetly again and say, "I'm not comfortable sharing my private medical information with strangers." If they REALLY push it, I'll pull out my phone and show them the relevant section of the governor's order stating that they're not allowed to require documentation or explanation. The less you draw attention to yourself (with other actions/clothing/words), the less likely people will even notice you're not wearing a mask, and even if they do, they will likely not say anything unless they're a Karen/Kevin.

For mine I think the meat is about average nothing crazy but it's an ethnic store so you get all the ethnic brands that walmart and a lot of the big stores don't carry I get corn tortillas 3 packets for like 1$ and 10lb bags of potatoes for like 1$ pounds of garlic and jalapeños .50-1$ a lb it is so cheap I feel like I am robbing them how much food I am getting.
