What Is The Point To These Mandates, When They Have Been Proven To Not Work.

[JimRaynor]

Establishing mask and vaccine mandates in places like Massachusetts, California, NY, is cultish behavior, especially since data has shown that none of this works. Florida and Texas, states with no mandates of any sort have comparable/better Covid outcomes than their North East and Western counter parts. Why then enact mandates that literally will surely do nothing in the long run to change the tide of the virus, but will do much harm to peoples mental health. This is irrational behavior, akin to a cult. These places thrive on fear, the Omicron variant which is more contagious is far less deadly than previous strains, many are calling it a natural vaccine, and it is unquestioned by any serious scientist that this strain will not be stopped by any man made measure. You can be triple vaxed, wear your mask, and still will get this virus. When will certain people finally learn to live with the fact that Covid is NEVER going away, and that eventually every single person on this planet will have had Covid in their life.

Wearing a mask damages your mental health?

Masks have really shown who the real snowflakes are.

When everyone else around you wears a mask it it creates an apocalyptic aura. Studies have been done on this, this isn't anything new or surprising.

Because they have other plans. The data shows omicrom isn't bad at all. Plus we have south African to look at and it was a dud and they're only 26% vaxxed.



But hey when you buy a ton of vaccines you have to use them.

Stop it, that's ridiculous. Asian countries have been wearing masks for how long? Apocalyptic aura.

When you're a pizza face or ugly a mask is a plus. The rest of us know what's up.

Now Man Down believes the data. But when the same source says vaccines etc work Man Down says it's BS. Why does Man Down cherry pick data?

Huh wtf are you talking about? Facts are facts. You just can't handle the fact I use all sources.

Oh and what does it matter? I'm not here to win anything. If the cases aren't serious that'd a plus for all of us.

You call a source BS, then post it as "evidence" if it suits your argument. It's absurd. Is the source BS or not Man down? If i post data from the UK government in an argument are you going to call BS or fact? Or does it depend on if it suits your agenda?

"People who struggle with social anxiety might experience increased distress related to mask-wearing during and even after the COVID-19 pandemic.

A paper authored by researchers from the University of Waterloo’s Department of Psychology and Centre for Mental Health Research and Treatment also has implications for those who haven’t necessarily suffered from social anxiety in the past.

“The adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health outcomes, including anxiety and depression, have been well-documented,” said David Moscovitch, professor of clinical psychology and co-author of the paper.





I mean you can laugh at it all you want, but its an indisputable fact. No sane person is going to say that everyone having to wear a mask because of a pandemic hasn't changed their mental wellbeing for the worse, this is something that even a dimwit wouldn't deny.
