I dont have a problem with other people wearing them or promoting them. But, I chose not to wear one.

If President Trump said, "The sky is blue!" the media would rush to their TV shows and say, "The sky is RED!"

It's all 4D chess.

Trump has been playing the media like a fiddle for a very long time, long before he was president.

They march to his tune.

Deep State is going to release an even deadlier version of the virus.

Get used to wearing masks.

I've got a more positive outlook. I think it's because they realize a vaccine isn't going to happen, and people need their placebo to get over their made up fear. Masks are far less risky than Bill Gates' Mark of the Beast shot.

I feel the same way, though with Wal-Mart mandating them now, I may not have many options left if I need to get groceries.

Masks only work to prevent you from spreading it to others via big cough droplets.

They don't filter out the smaller particles.

So yeah.....they are almost useless.

They don’t even do that... covid particle is .125 micro meters. N95 mask only stop 95% of particles .3 micro meters and larger. Masks are completely useless and cause more harm than good.

Msmcontrolsnarrative 1 point ago +1 / -0

It's the larger cough particles the virus is part of.

Masks will stop those.

Not much else.

This has been my only concern. If this is not man-made and I suspect it is not, then let nature take its course. But if this was proven to be engineered, then I would be way more paranoid and would take measures to protect myself (but those measures would not involve wearing a paper/cloth mask to go shopping)

I've read some very detailed analysis on whether it is man made or not, in particular by a fellow who was skeptical and sought to disprove it. He didn't prove it, but now he has serious doubts.

After reading his analysis, I think it is HIGHLY likely to be man made. Consider:

  1. The spike protein is basically alien to almost any other coronavirus, except one found in pangolins.

  2. The spike protein contains a highly effective 'cut point' where an enzyme in the human body can slice it, making it more effective. This can happen even before it leaves an infected cell.

  3. The rest of the virus is very similar to a certain bat coronavirus, but the spike protein is wholly alien to it, coming from a pangolin coronavirus. Where could these have naturally intersected?

  4. All of these modifications have been done in the past, and already demonstrated to be possible. They practically have virus-making CNC machines now, and these insane virologists actually compete with each other to be the first to do this crazy shit, specifically...coronaviruses.

I read somewhere that if the thing is man-made it's highly likely it will mutate back towards what it originally was (ie. a head cold) so the whole second wave panic is total crap.

DrCowboyPresident 2 points ago +2 / -0

The problem is that ACE2 receptors are fucking everywhere in your body. I'm not concerned about the death rate as much as the invisible shit it's doing by hanging around practically anywhere in the body.

So it's already not deadly. All viruses tend to mutate to become less deadly, because it's better for survival. But it's already kinda there, isn't it?

I think our understanding of microbiology is still infantile compared to where we will be in 30 years.

So, I will take your word on the accuracy of the reporting on 1-3, but withhold acceptance of the conclusion. Again not saying you are wrong, I am just keeping with the idea that the simplest answer is the most likely. And with the facts I have, the simple answer is the MSM/DNC/CCP/ETC are coordinating efforts to take down President Trump. They don't need a man-made virus or disaster to do this, they just need the MSM to control the narrative and use whatever the disaster of the day is. (They do this with shootings too). If it wasn't a Corona virus, they could have claimed this years flu was super deadly and that it was a never before seen strain, etc. And even if only a fraction of a normal years flu death's occur, they will not report that, but report anyone saying that it is not super deadly as being uncaring and make them look like a monster. And if President Trump goes the other way, they claim he panicked and destroyed the economy for no reason.

There are labs in Wuhan, but there are also historic coronavirus/influenza outbreaks from the region, so it is not extraordinary.

I guess it could go either way, but I do see how even the Chinese knowing they have labs in the area, might think it escaped from a lab and forgetting the outbreaks that occur every 40-60 years.

I just wish we could get good data rather than propaganda.

I think it's man-made and the msm and deep state are opportunists. I don't necessarily think they coordinated it, but they are sure as hell riding the panic wave.

The mask thing has to be exposed as bullshit in order to get America back open, save the economy, and prevent rampant dem voter fraud from mail in ballots. I think this is a HUGE mistake. This is some kushner-middle path shit.

Same. I got downvoted to the void when I mention I did not care if Trump wore a mask when he went to the hospital because he is 74 years old. The age group that Covid likes. I want to Trump to live a long time.

4D chess. If Trump endorses them the Dems and MSM will immediately reverse course and look even more foolish.

Salt_Cartoonist 6 points ago +6 / -0

This. Soon the MSM will start saying masks don't help and you need to be locked into your home. They will flip on the masks because Trump started wearing one, but still need to destroy the economy and will insist on you staying home and voting by mail.

I agree. There are bigger battles. If we want to open up the country, we are going to have to pick and choose. If you have the ability to fight it, GREAT! We love you for it.

But Trump is right to not battle on this. This is not the hill many of us want to die on. We are fighting to open back up at all in some states!!, to go back to school, to be able to attend church. Blue states like mine require masks as a prerequisite to opening back up. No masks, no job (where I work) I have no intention of losing my job. Why should I lose money and position that I worked hard to get? And I don’t want to lose any more of my town’s businesses because of my governor’s stupidity.

I frankly don’t want Trump to waste his energy on this issue alone but save it for things like mail-in voting, the 2nd amendment, immigration, and protecting the unborn. Those are fights me must win!

Although I don’t like this stupid mask deal, if it gets my town open and our kids back in school, we can “live” to fight another day.

Know that we are cheering for those of you with energy and opportunity to fight it!

May I also add that I think the media will be less for “masks” if Trump says to do it. It’s brilliant.

I am saddened by the probability that communist China will get away with this worldwide disruption. That does not bode well for the next time, if we allow a second attack. I have faith in our great president, but the whole world seems to be against him.

rabdargab 4 points ago +4 / -0

Because they want the country to reopen and go back to nornal not this new normal bullshit, and they know that whatever they do the media will push for the opposite. So if FLOTUS pushes for masks, the media will likely start saying masks are not effective

Does "practicing" social distancing make perfect?

Freedom4545 2 points ago +2 / -0

Notice its a recommendation and trump has said all along he has no problem with people that want to wear them and if you feel safer do it. Hes against the commies threatening citizens for not wearing the mark of the beast.

Sometimes you have to go along to get along... But be sure that POTUS doesn't capitulate unless he knows it will benefit him in the end.

We need to move away from all thing covid related, not an emergency.

because the polling says that the majority of people republican and Democrats want to wear masks.

He has said he's all for masks as long as it's not mandated. We also need to open schools in the fall or else the economy doesn't restart. That's what this is about.

Maybe this will make the left push to not wear them.

knightofday 1 point ago +1 / -0

I think its the reverse psychology on the media, after all everything trump does they have to scream do the opposite.

Would be an easy ploy to pull and see if it works imo

It’s just a mask.

It’s just a vaccine.

It’s just a chip.

It’s just a social credit score.

This shit will never stop and the mask is the wedge into the destruction of our civil liberties. There’s no way to get an honest representation of the problem due to political discourse and every little thing they demand will be one less bit of freedom in the future.

It’s just two weeks

It’s just another month

It’s just until the cases hit 0

It’s just until there’s a vaccine
