Twitter Plugin and Manual Bypasses
As you can see by my Chillum tweet above, I am AVOIDING the use of bare Twitter URLs, because Twitter has figured out that it can disrupt our interaction and real-time comms by slowing down the display of our pages. And how is that done? By slowing down the response of the Twitter Plugin for WordPress – or at least on our horrible Trump Supremacist website.
Previously discussed HERE:
WARNING: Twitter May Be Slowing Down Our Site
Also discussed throughout yesterday’s open thread, starting HERE: https://wqth.wordpress.com/2020/07/02/dear-kag-20200702-open-thread/comment-page-1/#comment-537320
Twitter videos may need to be posted as Twitter URLs, thus engaging the plugin. But almost everything else can be manually copied and pasted. Screenshots of Twitter posts, hosted somewhere, can be added as URLs and visible through the Twitter plugin. Even IMAGES on Twitter, can be linked here, and DISPLAYED by massaging the URLs back into normal image URLs.
For instance, here is a screenshot of a tweet (actually a retweet):
Here it is as text:

Here it is as text which won’t turn into a link (add a * at the beginning):

Here is an example of a Twitter image URL, which will only give a LINK in WordPress:

Here is how to fix it to make an image (remove ? on but save image extension and “dot” it on)

OANN App
Yes, there is an OAN app. Strongly consider helping out REAL NEWS by getting it.
OAN App Page: https://www.oann.com/app/

Android App: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.oann.news
It will tell you what’s on OAN right now, and can also take you straight to OAN’s web content.
It’s kind of hilarious that Apple will immediately attempt to get you to install the New York Times app when you begin using OANN‘s app.
Sorry, suckas. REAL NEWS ONLY.
Retirement is Only a Thing Under Freedom
A very powerful realization is the following.
Socialism wants to OWN OUR LIVES. It COVETS that TIME and MONEY. It desires to TAKE that extra work we do so that we can retire and enjoy life for a few worn out, broken down, but WISE and GENTLE years.
Whether by Pelosi’s financial crisis used to install Obama and rob our life savings, or by Obama’s medical socialism with its death panels, or by a Chinese virus that steals our very lives above 60, or by Nursing Home Killer’s stealthy promotion of that virus, it’s the same thing.
They STEAL our…..
Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
We never fully appreciated just how PROFOUND this little point really is.
Have a VERY HAPPY Fourth of July, otherwise known as Independence Day.

Happy INDEPENDENCE Day to all that pass this way (QTree)

Happy Independence Day, … God bless the USA .. 🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸‼️‼️🤨👍‼️❤️🇺🇸❤️
The mask psy-op here has entered a dark new phase. My elected officials are now saying that we need to make it “socially unacceptable” for people to refuse wearing the mask. Yes, those were the exact words used–”socially unacceptable”. They are straight up advocating public shaming. In addition, multiple newspapers across the state ran heavy-handed pro-mask editorials on the same date. And by “heavy-handed,” I mean they were using emotional manipulation such as “you’ll kill grandmothers if you don’t wear the mask.” The pro-public shame messaging between the government and newspapers all seemed very coordinated.
I’m warning folks here that masks are their new vector for sowing division. The mask debate has been around for months, but we have reached the point where local and state governments are encouraging public shaming of anyone who doesn’t comply. They are whipping the mask Nazis into a frenzy with their “anyone not complying will kill you” messaging and emboldening them to harass people.
I agree. I think you hit the nail on the head. THIS is the BRENNAN OP. This is the op that Chillum’s CIA agent was warning about.
Q: How can we make this work for us (our side)?? How do we turn it against them??
This doesn’t have to be a loss for us.
I was watching a Bruce Lee video earlier….
PS –
Chuck Norris was exposed to the coronavirus. Now the virus has to spend the next two weeks in quarantine.
When we were handed down an even stricter mask law this week, I contacted all of my government reps and told them that our Governor killed more people through via bad virus response than anyone refusing to wear a mask ever did. I said I’d comply with the new mask law when they investigate the Governor (I’m not holding my breath).
A lot of us are considering going to the next county west to shop. I don’t like the place, but they aren’t all in like the county executive here is. And, if the county and municipal revenues suffer because the people are shopping elsewhere, tough.
One of our basic rights is the right to vote with one’s feet. That’s why, unless you are a fugitive from justice, you can always leave. Leave your city, leave your county, leave your state, and even leave your country.
The problem is, I don’t WANT to. There’s things about living here that are not replicated else where.
But, the mask dictate is about social control, and the government people are depending on the public’s help to shame the non-conformists in compliance. I grew up in a family of genuine non-conformists, and we can be pretty nasty in our ways.
.. bwahahahahahah .. spit 💦 .. 😉👍‼️❤️ ..
Nuts, my comment is in response to what FG&C’ said about Chuck Norris …
Agree!! NO MASKS!!! Wolfie!!! Masks.. are the WAR!!! Me and Hubby WILL NOT WEAR!! EVEH!!!
Same. I intend on printing up a helpful meme that lists why masks don’t work, and include a few websites that give studies. Will pass them out to anyone who says a word to me.
Also have been thinking about starting a gofundme to help patriots pay for their fines for not wearing a mask, in Texas.
We must be innovative.

I’ve got a few, too, but these are good. I have a nice meme that will print up well, too.
We had just gotten to the point where hardly anyone was wearing the face burka, and Abbott put us back to square one.
The media in Texas is backing him to the hilt. They’ve been doing a good hatchet job on his conservative opponents who got caught making fun of him and his wheelchair. Snowflake stuff, but the establishment GOP is making it a Big Deal.
Goood for you, Marica. I can’t breathe under a mask. There is a wonderful woman in California, Peggy Hall, who has a website with videos. It is ThehealthyAmerican.org and she is a California state employee, and she trains and advises us on how to be free and healthy around these issues. Peggy will also email with people and she is inspiring and sensible.
Hi there Zoe!!! great to see ya darlin!!! I’ma bring this info over!!!
Happy Independence Day, Ma Marica. Someday maybe we will celebrate it together in D.C.
Happy Independence Day back atcha ZOE!!! YUP!! I see this!! Girlfriend!!! As GOD is My Witness!!! We get to meet.. in person!!! Not even kidding!!! you are always one of my favorites!!! God!! He’s got this! (sending heart emojis! and smoochie emojis too!)
“Show me the law.” Then I might think about it.
I’m requesting someone post a link for TheHealthyAmerican.org and maybe a video. Thank you. Wish I could do it myself.
“Thehealthyamerican.org” is the address, right there. (Why it doesn’t show as a link is another question entirely.) I gather you’re constrained from going there unless it’s an actual link, so here you go:
https://www.thehealthyamerican.org/
Thank you for posting the link, StevinCo.
I told Chillum. I think this is too important to let slide.
Sadie Slays sees huge psyopping on masks, and my gut says this is the Brennan BS. Brennan is trying to boost the China virus effects which were largely negated by Trump, using R govs who are weakening under media assault.

NOW YOU’RE COOKING!!
This is the water principal, right here.
If we all embraced the mask thing, it would completely undermine leftist calls for mail-in voting.
“Let’s make a deal”.
I appreciate this. I have a difficult time using Twitter. Sometime about the format literally makes my head hurt. But I’m trying to be more active there for Q’s sake.

Howdy Wolf,
Here are some of the comment’s I’ve dredged up.
Note that the argument focuses on
1. Credentials – the origin of one’s education does not determine the veracity of a proposition
2. Employment history – Does employment history determine the veracity of a proposition
3. Alleged Misquoting – No evidence of real misquoting provided. It is perfectly fine to quote a study in support of a conclusion different than the one the originating authors drew, in particular by citing the specific evidence in question.
These are “credibility” based responses, not factual responses.
I’m totally not sure what this comment is saying, or if it is in response to the first comment.
It reminds me so much of Iran’s revolution in the late 70’s. It was all over the news that the ayatollah was flying back and would impose all the old religious rules. We saw a contemporary society with beautiful women in miniskirts and makeup and extravagant hairdos on TV and thought surely that will never be able to happen. It is a modern country. Now we see the women covered head to toe in black material, shapeless and void of anything personal or different from any others. This is exactly what the masks do to us. Its like we aren’t individuals anymore. People are judged for wearing or not wearing, by uninformed people. This one act takes away so much freedom and humanity and independence, the very things the country is built on and what makes it stronger than any other in the world!
The thing is they are informed…just badly. Plus, almost all the maskies in my circles are teachers. They, and the people in a few other professions, like nursing, for whatever reason never question what they are told. Something about their training reinforces that. Thinking for themselves just doesn’t happen even when presented with solid logic.
Originally almost ALL nurses and most teachers were WOMEN. We, as women, were TAUGHT from infancy we were inferior to men. We could work at ‘approved’ jobs like secretary, nurse, teacher. When I wanted to be a Chem Engineer, my College guidance counselor WITHOUT informing me or my parents put me into the CHEMISTRY/Teaching program instead because WOMEN were not ALLOWED to be engineers!
Secretaries, nurses, teacher… as WOMEN were never allowed to fully grow up. The BOSS was always a MAN and put any ‘uppity woman’ in her place. Women were never allowed more freedom than high schools students.
When the Civil Rights Act was being debated and the Democrats were afraid it might pass, A DEMOCRAT added WOMEN to the bill KNOWING that while a BLACK MALE might be considered the EQUAL of a WHITE MALE NO ONE WOULD CONSIDER A WOMAN THE EQUAL OF A MAN!
That type of thinking still exists for nurses and teachers, YOU NEVER CHALLENGE the DOCTOR (or principal) because he thinks he is god! And has the POWER to prove it.
Same can be said historically for religious leaders…traditionally male, many anti-female and all kinds of submissive acts towards females as far as clothing and obedience.
Same principle as your last paragraph, Gail.
High School Counselor told me not to worry about it, I was pretty enough that I would get married. That is what I wanted so was happy!
.. wow that’s scary and sad, … I go up the down aisles in the market .. on … purpose. I’ve notice it’s subtle but others are quietly rejecting the goose step nonsense … quitely, quietly …
I feel so bad for the kids being programmed into submissive victims … poor kids, 🥺🤚
Their fundamental issue in Iran was, that most of the population viewed itself as being good Muslims. It was possible for any fundamentalist to ask them “You say you are a good Muslim, but how can I know this? You don’t look like good Muslims!” And they could point to the hadiths and sirah, which are as much a part of Islam as is the Koran, and say that that is how you look like good Muslims, that is how a good Muslim behaves.
It wasn’t just some dictatorial asswipe telling them they had to wear face coverings; it was their own religion mandating it. They couldn’t even argue they had a right to go around bare-faced, because according to everything they either believed, or professed to believe, there was no such right.
Yes, some were hardline. Some were not and were not religious and didn’t care and resented having to cover up and to have their younger brother chaperone them to the store. I have come in contact with many that would call themselves Persians and that their religion is Zoroastrianiam. They escaped with their lives and while they had had a good life, were beggars traveling through countries until they found one to accept them. My point was more to the masks having a similar function to the hijab and how it implemented much more than just a covering.
Sure, they function similarly. I’m making a (perhaps unrelated) point that doesn’t contradict yours; there is, there, an extra inducement to wear masks in their culture. The people unfortunate enough to live there who don’t buy into that culture is yet another problem.
One reason I do not want to live in a theocracy…ANY theocracy.
Vic DiBitetto put out a tweet a couple of months ago about the sheer insanity that lies behind the KARENS and the “gotta have a mask” movement. I saw a bunch of sheeple in a parking garage yesterday, and it pretty much confirmed what he presents. I’d forgotten to bring my “mind-control device” (aka mask), and got a lot of glares to which I replied the local variant of stuff it…
Anyway, it’s on YouTube, a little longer (and more pointed, couple of f-bombs). Having a “Karen” in my extended family, it’s spot-on…

HILARIOUS! And, unfortunately true.
When I see a mask Nazi in full regalia preparing to charge, it makes we want to burst out in joyous SONG!
I wanna be shamed by you, just you
And nobody else but you
I wanna be shamed by you alone
Boop-boop-de-boop!
I wanna be dissed by you, just you
Nobody else but you
I wanna be dissed by you alone
I couldn’t aspire
To anything higher
Than your Nazi desire
To make me a drone
Ba-dum-ba-dum-ba-doodly-dum-boo
.. BWAHAHAHAHAHAH .. awesome .. 🤨👍‼️😜
“My elected officials are now saying that we need to make it “socially unacceptable” for people to refuse wearing the mask.”
____________
Take the names down, and everyone you know who supports them, and let them know that when this is over, they will be treated worse than the Nazi collaborators after France was liberated.
And SMILE because you’re HAPPY just thinking about it!
Because we’re going to remember them, and we’re going to get them 🙂
For starters, they will ALL get their heads shaved.
In the public square, where they harassed and intimidated and bullied patriotic Americans.
They will learn the meaning of the word “SHAME”, that I can tell you.
.
.
This is what they have to look forward to… and what WE have to look forward to, seeing them punished and humiliated:
.
NEVER forget who these people are, and what they have done 👍
Actually, with this lot, the women might like the b u t c h look…
And the “men”? Put bacon in their gruel… no soy (I’m sure someone could make a sentence out of that 🙂 )…
(and a pun….STEVE???? )
I’ve been visiting in NY state and it’s like a foreign country up here, mask everywhere 😷 I haven’t put one on anyplace I go into. I’ll have it in my hand and then just walk into the store past the sign that says NY now requires mask. F them and get the side eye from everyone in the place, but so far no one has asked me to put it on or leave the store. Crazy shit going on theses people are all 🐑 they walk down the street with no one around with a mask on.
Hey everyone have a great 4th !!
“They are whipping the mask Nazis into a frenzy with their “anyone not complying will kill you” messaging and emboldening them to harass people.”
______________
The last thing they are expecting is an aggressive response, because NOBODY does!
I’m looking forward to it.
I think people can tell just by the look on my face, because sometimes I sense that somebody wants to say something, but nobody says a #*&^ing word to me, if I stare them down 😁
Bullies sense fear like an animal does.
And the sense danger like an animal does, too.
When some tin-pot mask Nazi sees you, give them the ‘danger’ signal, not the other one 👍
F**k these fascist mask-Nazi chumps.
I intend to literally laugh in the face of anyone who attempts to publicly shame me over a mask.
“socially unacceptable” Well, at least they’re being honest.
““socially unacceptable” Well, at least they’re being honest.”

Honest about their priggishness 👍
Top editorial on the NYT at the time I’m writing this:
Local news keeps showing pictures of Mitch McConnell in a mask even in unrelated stories, and they won’t stop gloating over Governor Abbott caving on the mask order. We’ve had mandatory masks here since April, but this week is the absolute worst I’ve seen with the mask propaganda.
Jesse Wegman: “Seriously, Just Wear Your Mask.”
_____________
No.
Can you hear me now, little nazi? 🙂
Now try and make me.
Go ahead, Jesse.
MAKE ME.
I dare you to even try.
I haven’t been so thoroughly resolved to NOT do something in YEARS 😂😂😂
I’m becoming radicalized against masks 😂
Scott if they say something , the come back is:
WOW you make a GREAT NAZIS, HITLER WOULD BE PROUD!
Then whip out a notebook and ask:
What is your name so we know who you are when we decide to shave NAZI collaborator heads.
I was thinking along similar lines, how fun it would be to start going around to city council meetings, and very conspicuously write down the names of every council member who supports any fascist decrees, maybe write their names on a big white board at the back of the room so they can see it, under the heading “Nazi Collaborators”.
When one of the masked Nazis asks what I’m doing, act all innocent, I’m just doing my job.
Councilman Mask-Nazi: What job?
Me: I was hired to go to city councils and townhall meetings and take down the names of every council member or local government official who supports fascist decrees which violate our Constitution and the God-given rights of Americans.
Councilman Mask-Nazi: Why?
Me: I don’t know for sure, but I get the impression you’re going to find out. This current war is going to be over in about 4 months, then it’s judgment day. What’s your first name, by the way? The little plack says Hon. J. Breitman, what’s the ‘J’ stand for?
Councilman Mask-Nazi: Who hired you?
Me: that’s entirely none of your business, isn’t it?
Councilman Mask-Nazi: You need to leave these premises!
Me: No, I don’t, but I already have all your names now, so I’m going to the next burg to get their names.
Sleep well, betrayer.
All of you, sleep well.
Because you won’t be for long.
Do you know what they did to the Nazi collaborators in France after WWII?
Good day.
edit / correction: plaque, not plack 🙄😁
Our little town is heading that way…headlines in today’s paper. I am sending a printed copy to the Mayor of the report you shared, Wolf, along with my declaration that I will stay home, not patronize any of the businesses, rather than be forced to wear a mask.
I got my hair cut a few days ago and the shop owner said she doesn’t think she can financially withstand another shutdown…and that is in a two-income family. Another woman, sole owner of a facial business and single woman, says she doesn’t know how she will live if forced to shutdown again. She depleted her savings the last time.
PhoenixRising…hope you make your voice heard, as well to our local leaders!

Just as long as it ain’t Pelosi’s nephew….
Indeed!
I went to get my car smog-tested today — something I’d been putting off because I REALLY REALLY want to register the car in NC, instead…..
Anyway, I went into the smog-tester’s office and he wasn’t wearing a mask, so I took mine off. Then he put one on to run the smog test.
Passed with flying colors, BTW. They give you this printout for NO in PPM (that’s the orange part of smog). I failed one year, did my homework, dug down into the EGR system, and cleaned-out 20 years of gronk in the EGR manifold. [There are all sorts of videos for auto repair on YouTube. I thought two were particularly helpful, despite one of them where the guy’s hand was bleeding through 2/3 of the video. In filming straight through that incident, he made it abundantly clear what part of the procedure you should be most CAREFUL.] Passing is 717, average measured in testing is 144. My 1994 Honda was blowing 2.
I’m still trying to figure out how to cross post in an effective manner across various social platforms… we get a ton via Twitter, but no good way to share content from Parler/Gab here.

I’m running for Governor of Texas.
7:01 PM · Jul 2, 2020·Twitter for iPhone
Excuse me? You can’t run for office using an alias.
He can if I want him to!😉🥰
Heyyy, it worked for Øbozo 😡
(not justifying it, tho’ )…..
I never would’ve thought that Gov Abbott would be so heavy-handed.
😕😔
Unbelievable! Do R’s think it’s the only way to keep economy open? Why aren’t they challenging hinky data? Pushing therapeutics? Not everyone wants a vaccine. They gonna mandate masks if not vaccinated? I don’t like this one bit.
IKR?
And the masks don’t work!
Even the mask manufacturers are putting Disclaimers on their packaging, saying that the masks will Not Stop Transmission of Viruses.
😒😖
I believe what we are seeing is the outing of the RINO establishment in Texas.
Abbott is one of them. He is UNIPARTY. Republicans in Texas are basically hoity toity Democrats.
Just getting active in local politics and I find many Republicans are Democrats and just don’t know it. That is how deeply embedded the RINOs have become.
It’s the local chamber of commerce. As you said RINO’s.
Oh, it’s the local Republican parties, too. They despise PT.
UniParty Democrats.
I know several and they really are more Democrat than Republican. I had no idea the locals were so infected with leftist thinking.
Someone needs to refresh his memory what a Trump Republican Governor does, he’s either going the Patriot way or he’s in the way .. BEEP .. BEEP .. 🤨👍❤️🇺🇸❤️‼️ ..
Or such a PUSSY!!!!
Well, now he’s a lame duck.
I’m very disappointed in Abbott doing a statewide ANYTHING. He should know better, and probably does. I wonder what got to him?
Media. They’ve hypnotized everybody with phony new case numbers.
Yes, but STATEWIDE?
Why doesn’t he just fence off Austin and Houston, like everyone already thinks is necessary? And maybe quarantine ’em for a couple of years?
I’m going to be blunt. The China virus reduced my ability to warn people against stupid shit before they do it. I probably need oxygen to get my old efficiency back, and I can’t get it. Oh, well. Too bad.
Whatever. I’m tapped out. Gonna let America have a REAL Fourth of July – probably next year.
But on the bright side, good aliens might invade and end all the nonsense before the civil war and world war! There’s always that. 😀
Now – where is my “prepper” pop-corn?
Wolf…I know so many people using oxygen, I am surprised when you say you cannot get it. I honestly didn’t think it that difficult.
I know you are a researcher extraordinaire, can you go “outside the box”…..don’t they use oxygen in dive tanks, for example? Maybe you can go to that website that I’ve read about to have a $50 consultation with a doctor about how to get oxygen. Go directly to the oxygen business suppliers and get their advice…they might have a list of doctors they deal with constantly to help you.
Heck, even hikers and mountain climbers use portable oxygen …how do they get it?
That’s what is so crazy about mandating the masks…it interferes with your oxygen…and how to they treat COVID patients in the hospital?….with oxygen.
It’s also possible for aviators to get oxygen.
Now, you’re liable to go broke buying oxygen retail. You’ll have to score one of those machines that makes it and feeds it into a cannula for your nose.
Hi Wolfie! What about one of those portable oxygen converters, like Inogen?? Would that help you??
Yep. Any county with more than 20 cases is under the face burka mandate.
I’m always ticked off, but my husband went ballistic when we found out. 🤣
Followed Chad on Parler
People are getting fed up with Gov Abbott’s mishandling of COVID-19 in Texas. Not reopening fast enough, decisions based on bad data, and now requiring masks in public everywhere in Texas. This is not the freedom that Texas stands for!

“Actually, the news did a poll tonight. 70% of respondents think he is doing to little too late. Only about 3% disagreed with his order. Seems like most of this area of Texas is fed up because he opened too quickly (in there opinions).”
Pushed back.
“I was responding to your post that said most Texans think Abbott is reopening too slowly. It was meant to contrast the two perspectives. But, I have no idea what the take us outside of DFW.”
Mmmhmm.
Most people are not wearing masks, but this just happened in the last week. I’m way north of Dallas.
The heat is just killing the old people who are wearing masks. They can hardly get around because of lack of oxygen. How ironic, considering the Covid does the same thing…

HERE is the link: Wearing a Mask Can Make You Sick by Jim Meehan MD, a physician – https://www.meehanmd.com/blog/2020-04-28-when-wearing-a-mask-makes-you-sick/
ThankQ for adding the link… Hadn’t finished my Cuppa and was still 1/2 asleep.
I have yet to find one person that isn’t constantly “adjusting” their mask while wearing it. Nor, other than my doctor, have seen one person leave a store, room, etc and discard their paper mask (that supposedly should be changed after 30 minutes.)
Wanted to capture one of my responses…
“Abbott essentially did a soft lockdown … too bad.”
My response:
Right.
You know this already, so I’m not directing this at you so much as trying to find a better way to articulate.
The issue is being framed as “public safety” -VERSUS- “freedom”
Some people (especially platformed media types) push the “public safety” narrative and downplay “freedom”
This causes (predictably, and intentionally) a reactionary response that pushes “freedom” over “public safety”.
All of our public & social media is aligned to trigger these contentions and amplify them: Divisive.
It’s critical to recognize that “freedom” is derived from God-given human RIGHTS.
And the corollary, RIGHTS do not exist in a vacuum – every RIGHT
implies a moral RESPONSIBILITY.
Our ability to act according to RESPONSIBILITY is grounded in our RIGHTS to act. Without rights, responsibility falls by the wayside.
The real question is not the framed false narrative discourse of “freedom -VERSUS- public health” as if the two goods are in competition AGAINST each other in a zero-sum game.
The real question is: HOW CAN WE HAVE TWO NECESSARY GOODS SIMULTANEOUSLY?
How can we support -BOTH- “public health” -AND- “God-given Human rights”?
How can we DECONFLICT these positions?
The answer to THAT is that we need to exercise BIBLICAL WISDOM.
We cannot sell out God-given human rights for safety any more than we can throw caution to the wind and go full libertarian.
BIBLICAL WISDOM – avoid the DIVISIVENESS TRAP, and DECONFLICT two goods that are being improperly pitted against each other.
Put another way, avoid the “thesis / anti-thesis / synthesis” trap and instead focus on COUNTER-THESIS
Many times the “problem” is not the “problem” – the “problem” is that that “problem” has been defined wrong.
Recognizing how the “problem” has been -FRAMED- is often the key to deconstructing the conflicting narrative.
It’s ironic, isn’t it…that the people who are so desperate to Mask The Truth, are the ones who are trying to force us to wear masks.
The Maskers want us to be masked.
Show us that you are a good little sheep: Wear Your Mask.
It makes me want to find one of these:

Yup the peer pressure push.
The comments of its not politics but iq….
Most people wear it gem wrong because we like air.
Here’s a great article on Armerican Thinker about what a HUGE FAIL masks are against a virus, in particular how most people use them. And what a truly rigorous and effective hygiene (including anti-virus) routine involves.
COVID-19 Protection Advice from a Doctor-albeit a Dentist
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2020/06/covid19_protection_advice_from_an_md_albeit_a_dentist.html
[begin excerpt]
So imagine my bewilderment in the age of the COVID-19 pandemic at all the politicians, pundits, and talking heads who’ve suddenly become experts in infection control — not to mention all the lay people wearing masks of every conceivable design and standing six feet away from others, as if six feet were some magic number. Poor sheeple — they think they’re safe, they’re following the “science,” and far be it from me to disabuse them of their imaginary sense of security.
As I was saying, I’m just a dentist — with forty-five years of studying and practicing infection control — and here’s how I see it. We live in a sea of bacteria, viruses, and Spirochetes (Lyme Disease, syphilis), a veritable Grand Central Station of pathogens, all of them vying to take us down. They’re on doorknobs and newspapers, in our air and water, and emanating from the mouths (and other orifices!) of our fellow human beings.
(…)
The other form of protection is infection control. Exactly how do dentists practice infection control, a question not one person has ever asked? This is how.
You enter a treatment room, and after several minutes of witty repartee with your patient, you wash your hands thoroughly with warm water and soap, and long enough to hum the theme song to Gilligan’s Island. Then you carefully put on a mask, protective goggles, and gloves. Done right, the patient’s protected from you, and you’re protected from the patient.
Now, here’s the exciting part. When you’re done abusing the poor patient’s molars, all your PPE is contaminated, chock-full of pathogens and bodily fluids. You throw your mask and gloves away and leave your goggles to be disinfected by the assistant who later cleans up the operatory. Because you just touched your contaminated PPE, you wash your hands again before leaving the room, this time humming the theme to Mr. Ed. A horse is a horse, of course.
And you do this again and again and again, going through boxes of gloves and masks every day, and spending thousands of dollars on high-tech goggles so there’s one pair in every room. If your dentist walks around the office with glasses or loupes hanging from his neck, he ain’t doing it right. If he doesn’t wash his hands at a sink, but instead rubs a little Purell on them, he’s faking it. I’ve probably spent 10–15% of my time on the planet washing my hands — so much so that my arm hair ends exactly where an latex glove would begin. But my infection control protocol works. I’ve treated coughing, hacking, sneezing patients for entire winters without catching a cold.
Here’s the scary part: almost no one on the street is practicing proper infection control with regard to COVID-19. No one, including me.
The mask you wear all day gets contaminated from within by your exhalations and from without by the exhalations of others. Is anyone putting on a new mask every hour? Of course not. Even the best N-95 mask is a hotbed of germs, inside and out, after just a few hours. Paper masks degrade even faster, and cloth masks and bandanas are effective only for bank-robbing. They’re literally sieves when it comes to microscopic bugs. If you wear a mask without covering your nose, consider yourself totally unprotected. And an idiot.
Same for gloves — the pair your cashier wore at the supermarket had germs from everyone that cashier serviced before you. And then the cashier handled your food! Don’t even think about what’s living on the cash register’s keyboard; that alone will make you ill.
Protective goggles seal to your face; glasses don’t. If you’re walking around in public without protective goggles, to paraphrase the old song, bugs get in your eyes. And don’t even get me started on the “six-foot social distancing rule.” It’s a made up, arbitrary distance. Someone sneezing sends droplets much farther — someone yelling, farther still. The length of a football field is probably the ideal for social distancing.
Here’s the challenging part of my screed. What most people are doing to protect themselves from COVID-19 is entirely symbolic, a Jedi mind trick played by CNN talking heads on the wary and weak-minded. You’re not doing a fraction of what a dentist does to avoid spreading infection. You can’t, let’s face it.

Thanks, Cuppa!
That was great!
😁😉👍
This is why BRENNAN is doing it. It’s pure psy-op.
And Chyna, all Asshoes.
Wait….I want in on this….
OMG. Yeah. Well, mine is more placebo, because it looks like it might work.
That is why I like a LOOSE fitting cowboy bandana. ‘LOOKS’ like a mask but does diddle to stop the airflow if you tie it so your nose barely stops it from falling off.
I have to wear one for bizness… If I am within 6 feet of a kid. 🙄
(If I am PAID to wear a mask, I will… sort of.)
CHEESECLOTH! There’s an idea!
Extra special version for the Karens: with the cheese still in it 😆
if I read one more comment about how Asians wear them all the time, I’m gonna scream!
Asians do a lotta stuff I won’t do…including living in ASIA…
I’m committed to doing a Nadler with my mask when i am forced to wear one…I’ll put it on to get into a store, then rummage thru my purse for my glasses…take my mask off, put the glasses on…and ABSENTMINDEDLY put the mask in my purse…if you make a big spectacle out of doing it, every one thinks you’re a bumbling old fool…
Asians wear them all the time BECAUSE OF PARTICULATE POLLUTION!
This is air pollution NOT FOG!
I know, but I read so many comments in other places about how Asians wear them without complaining, we should too…
apples and oranges
You know how we end this? We call them BRENNAN MASKS. Personalize it.

Great article. This has me convinced. We tie these things to John Brennan and BURN THEM.
Tie them to the CIA Then the Left will have the HeeBee-JeeBees too.
Add
CIA MURDER WEAPON
to this:
I can embroider so I think I will do it.
Dredged up this comment:
“That bit completely misunderstands why the public is asked to wear masks.”
GMTA 🙂 that’s the article I quoted above. The key takeaway is this paragraph (IMHO):
I love this man!!!!💕💕💕
Finally, TRUTH!!!
It’s like the 2 Doctors said in the video that got banned. We have to interface with all the germs all the time in order to keep our immune systems built up. No germs, no immunity.
Might go well with
🤪😬
I can’t tell if that is making fun of zoophilia and bestiality…or trying to garner sympathy for it.
My take is that the guy’s on acid (dancing flowers) and that it’s a warning about misperception, with a dig about zoophilia along the way. I don’t think it seriously supports bestiality in any way. There’s a message about “reality/perception” that is pretty clear throughout.
But, y’know, I could be wrong.
WTH is this video doing here. I never even viewed it. It’s supposed to be
They’re known to be a little edgy —
I don’t believe any of those actresses are even close to high school age.
Reminds of most of the guys in Animal House who were in their late 20s or early 30s, pretending to be just out of high school… 😂
Every time they push harder, I push back twice as hard.
I have never been any other way, and I don’t know how to be any other way, so this could be a death-match.
And that’s FINE with me 🙂
I don’t care.
This is EASY stuff.
My MOM did worse stuff to me than this when I was FIVE.
Every day!
The hazing they did to us in my fraternity was OFF THE CHARTS compared to this baby stuff.
Ohhh… that’s precious… you really think you’re going to ‘shame’ me into wearing one of your little faggot nazi masks?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Since you seem to want to press the issue, there’s not even a CHANCE now, you pathetic little China-puppet mask nazis.
AND I fart in your general direction, because I know you’re sick and you like that 😁
You really have no idea who you’re messing with.
I will not ever back down.
So make me a star, mask-nazis.
Let’s see what you’ve got, let’s see what you’re made of.
Because the anticipation of taking that mask and shoving it down your nazi throat, well it almost feels like I’m finally discovering what I was born to do 😁
Oh, Wheatie2, I can’t See that, but I want one. Lol.

I’m glad to see the Secret Service doing this!
😊😏👍
Drones can be weaponized.
And we don’t need our enemies snooping on our President’s security teams, either.
Funny you should mention this. I’m fairly certain that somebody used a drone to clone [or attempt to clone] either my cell phone or my wife’s phone last night (night of 7/1, morning of 7/2). That fits an approved op timetable, BTW. And I had tons of overflights all day the day before – makes sense.
It’s a long story, but it’s pretty cool. Given that the other side has a huge tactical advantage on such an operation (no details), I’m fairly certain I’ve got it nailed. They worked very hard to build opsec for this.
Go back a few months. I was working on the side of my house that is directly underneath the logical place for people to try a “clone at night” operation – meaning externally visible nightstands where you expect people to park their cell phones. Problem? WAY off the ground.
Well, earlier this year, I noticed some fairly fresh, sharp gouges in the paint and wood – tiny things – clearly by metal, in a series, made at a tipped horizontal, but the series of two rows RISING, tilted, slightly curved. I had NO IDEA at the time what they could be. It didn’t look animal – it looked MACHINE. It did not look like a ladder scrape or anything natural, either. The tiny gouges were like powerful RAZOR NICKS. VERY WEIRD. Kinda funny – I thought it looked like what that mechanical bird in “Clash of the Titans” might do.
Flash forward a couple of months to today (OK – yesterday) (7/2). Exact same place along the wall, my wife finds a bunch of fallen clippings out of a tall tree that is vegetated ABOVE the house, right above where you would want to bring a drone to park it outside the nightstands. If the drone rose stupidly, THAT is where the clippings would have fallen from.
EVERY SINGLE clipping was cleanly “rough-sliced” – not razor sharp, but clearly FAST CUTS. No ripping – very clean slices, but slightly rough, somewhat sharper than a machete, but not as sharp as a good-quality kitchen knife cuts veggies.
And we’re talking WAY off the ground and inaccessible – EXCEPT BY AIR. Could not have been an animal. had to be a machine.
So yeah. Drones are a problem.
I will gladly take any advice here on stopping phone-cloner drones.
😳😬…Woah.
That definitely sounds like evidence of rotor-blade activity!
I saw an inexpensive way of protecting your abode from that sort of thing, where some nerd type guys put a wire around the edge of windows and such.
It blocked the signals…each way.
Didn’t understand it meself, since I am rather tech-stupid about such things.
But maybe you can do something like that?
Sort of like Faraday-ing your house?
Found this information about cloning phones. I did have a Facebook account cloned off my phone years ago – part of why I ditched FB completely. I suddenly had devices I didn’t own using my account in Chicago and elsewhere. During Obama, of course!!!
https://www.techjunkie.com/how-to-clone-cell-phone/
Besides the burner phone, some people use Google Voice. Another cheap option is MagicJack. You can receive SMS messages to MagicJack. If possible use a really unpopular area code – for example, 469 in Dallas is an overlay originally created strictly for mobile. Traditionally all U.S. area codes had a zero or a one as the middle digit (214 for North Texas; 202 reserved for DC) so any newer codes are less likely to have been repurposed from an old landline.

There are a lot of vids like this, too.
I hope they might be helpful, Wolfie.
Perhaps a wicked web be weaved… something like a fisherman’s web, all but invisible, hanging from the tree but enough to foul the rotors? Sort of the same thing that sometimes happens to boat screws…
Would rearranging the furniture so that the nightstands are on an interior wall be an option? Or a charging station on an interior wall far enough away from the window it can’t be seen?
“Would rearranging the furniture so that the nightstands are on an interior wall be an option? ”
_____________
According to Wictor Osweda, that’s what the Mossad does, to mess with your head, just before they kill you.
He really believes that.
There’s some “Furniture Rearranging Squad” somewhere at Mossad headquarters, and their job is to break into peoples’ homes that they intend to assassinate, and rearrange their furniture, to give them a ‘scare’ before the actual hit-squad comes by.
Seems like it would only warn the target and give him time to increase his security about 10,000%, making Mossad’s job infinitely harder, but Carlos Thomas is saying it, so it must be true 😁
All kidding aside, if the device has to be visible through a window or close to one in order to clone it, why not move the thing?
It’s a good point. Or there may be simple alternatives, too, that accomplish the same effect.
I was thinking just a window treatment change, like closed shutters, might block it.
I get the idea that the people who do this sort of thing depend on routine. Well, if that’s the case, change the routine.
Scott, that’s the first thing that went through my mind… could, erm, smoke out who’s behind the drone…
(JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!)
Maybe a 3lb coffee can [do they even make them anymore?], inverted, as a mini-Faraday cage? (then again, why have the phone on; except that most phones with built-in batteries are NEVER off anymore, unless the battery’s dead)…..
if that happened out our way, I would think porcupines–in the spring time they climb to the tops of trees to eat the buds–so they have extremely sharp claws and teeth.
I am not suspicious enough to survive in your world…take care!
Big time Wheetie…tomorrow!!!!!!

This is the Gastby 1 arrival into NYC…
Here is an enlarged portion of the arrival plate. The “SOL” is the Statue of Liberty, and Manhattan Island is circled….
POTUS is clearly in a helicopter in that pic above. But this arrival, combined with landing on runway 22 at La Guardia is a lot of fun.
Start with the arrival coming from the southwest heading northeast up to the city. The last 3 navigation fixes are Renue, Apple, and Proud. Here is where it gets fun…
At Apple we’ll be at approx. 8,000, and then told “turn left and follow the (Hudson) river north, descend to 5,000”.
So we do this….
Which means we fly right by the SOL like POTUS in this pic (above) albeit higher up but descending.
Here is the approach plate for the ILS 22 at La Guardia. The red line with arrows is the flight path…
It is a spectacular arrival and approach into NYC.
Have a taste….
The big green space is Central Park
I always do window seats and envy the view from the cockpit. But, y’know, I’m just a passenger.

From a friend of mine traveling to Mount Rushmore for the #4thofJuly celebration:
“At airport…our flight to Mt. Rushmore cancelled! No reason. I texted lots of others I knew who were headed there…Delta cancelled all Salt Lake connections & all but one via Minneapolis.” Thinking face
Oh, it’s war. It’s WAR.
Oh Wolfie!!! IT IS…WAR!!! Marica is being attacked on all fronts!! But we gotchca covered by prayer!! PROMISE!!!
OK. Today’s objective!
CALL THEM BRENNAN PSYOP MASKS or BRENNAN MASKS. We PERSONALIZE masks on the HATED JOHN BRENNAN.
Q drops out the wazoo.
Remember when it had been weeks since we had a Q drop, and people began saying there wouldn’t be any more coming…that Q’s job had been done?
LOL
Those were the days.
I remember saying that. I was wrong and I’m very happy to be wrong about that.
Happy Independence Day!
I might take some heat for this, but that’s ok I’m tough.
One of the ways the left gets at us is because we can be careless with our arguments. This mask-wearing thing is a good example.
The argument FOR using masks is NOT that it PREVENTS the spread of the virus or keeps people from getting it.
The argument is that is SLOWS the spread of the virus by REDUCING the footprint of whatever comes out of one’s mouth (spittle, cough, sneeze). The argument is NOT that it is a foolproof solution or even a great solution.
The argument is that with you having one on, and my having one on, then the virus has to get past two (2) barriers in order for me to pass it to you (or vice versa).
SAVE ALL THE ARGUMENT ABOUT NUMBERS AND RATES OF INCIDENTS FOR ANOTHER THREAD.
IMHO, we do a grave dis-service to public perceptions of our side by simply claiming that “masks don’t work”, etc. WITHOUT ADDRESSING the actual argument being made to wear the masks.
Simply claiming that masks don’t work and are bad for one’s health is NOT addressing the argument for their use. NO ONE has said they prevent the spread of the virus. The claim is that it slows the rate of transmission.
And as far as I can tell, no one on our side of this debate has been DIRECTLY ADDRESSING the actual argument in favor of wearing the masks (ie. using masks does not slow the rate of transmission).
What am I missing??
(NOTE: Earlier this week I flew a trip with a old friend of mine who is pro-Trump. I hadn’t seen him since late last year and he shared that his wife was pregnant with their first child (a boy). Thing is, his wife has a compromised immune system (some long medical terminology I can’t remember) and she was told by her OBGYN that she and her baby are high risk re: the Kung Flu. Worse, her aunt had gotten the virus in April and died from complications from it.
Naturally, my friend was now paranoid about possibly contracting the virus while at work and bringing it home, unwittingly passing it to his wife and their baby while he was a symptomatic. So he asked that we be extra careful, wipe down the entire cockpit at every plane change, and wear masks even while in flight. So what was I supposed to say? No way? Of course I was going to help him by wearing a mask and support his concerns any way I can. After all, I wanted his mind on the flights, not worrying about his home life.
Was it a pain in the ass? Yes. No question. Hated every second of it. The damn masks strings that go over your ear start to dig in where your ear meets the head with a pair of headsets on. 10-13 hours of that shit gets old REAL quick. But what else was I gonna do? Tell him no? That his new baby on the way didn’t matter to me? Hell no! I can be a jackass, as you know, but I’m not a heartless jackass.
And then I think….what if the guy or gal I’m in line with has a baby on the way, and they are high risk like my friend’s wife?
We may not like the mask argument, and we might think there is a darker purpose for promoting their use.
But that shit doesn’t matter to my friend and his wife. And they are STAUNCH Trump supporters. FWIW)
FG&C…I get it! Have NOT worn a mask yet…But my brother’s daughter gave birth last week to twins…27 weeks and 2.5 lbs each!! I told them…if you need my help and I must wear a mask…I WILL!!! for these babies and my niece! But… seriously… Walmart and Kroger…and Home Depot and Lowes….um….NO!!! I have had 5 closings and …thank God.. my hair colored and cut and nails done…No masks!!!
So you’ll wear them for your family, but not for other people’s family?
Don’t answer that. It’s a rhetorical question and I’m not looking for a fight.
My best case is that we turn the tables on these plannedemic asshoes and use their demands for masks against them. Like removing their justifications for mail-in ballots, for example.
Be like water, as Bruce Lee counseled.
No. You don’t defeat the enemy’s tactics by submitting to them.
This is “going along to get along.”
The next thing they come up with will be worse, and you will probably go along with it. That is how they win, and we lose.
And, I have seen numerous fake news articles and people say the masks work.
“ No. You don’t defeat the enemy’s tactics by submitting to them.”
.
You obviously never heard of the martial art of judo, which of course tells us the depth your war fighting knowledge and experience.
Moreover, I am not arguing that masks work. I am asking….quite reasonably….for evidence that they do NOT SLOW the rate of transmission…which is the very basis of this thread…
….the discourse of which has been friendly with all….until you showed up.
As I said, I am not looking for a fight, and I am most assuredly NOT your enemy.
Sorry you’ve taken offense.
I’ll remove myself from the conversation.
Pax.
That’s probably for the best.
The “you will probably go along with it” was completely unnecessary, implied gullibility, and I was most definitely NOT proposing a “go along to get along” strategy.
I went there for you. Will report any answers…

At the beginning of his short talk Dr. Samadi lumped masks in with other steps to ward off Covid. Toward the end he said (and I quote), “Mandatory masks aren’t going to do anything.”
Take of it what you will.
Here is one reply I have received. Also, Dr. Samad liked my tweet, so perhaps he will answer on his periscope.
your rights do not end where your friend’s fears begin.
if your friend lost someone to a gunshot and was terrified of being in a home that had guns, would you then remove the guns from your home to make your friend more comfortable?
i understand your concern for your friend, but if he is that concerned that contact with anyone will jeopardize his wife and child’s health, perhaps he should remain isolated at home with them.
I sincerely hope your friend and his wife have a healthy child.
It’ not that easy.
We both need and have to go to work.
So both pilots pass out from C02 poisoning?😱
I get what you’re saying. Why can’t he wear the mask to protect himself if he’s worried. Masks are harmful. Why is his fear allowed to control you, possibly make you sick? Both of you in that cockpit wearing masks will not stop the virus. It will only slow, so you wouldn’t bet infected in hour 2, but maybe hour 10. Those particles will out, unless you’re using respirators. None of it makes logical sense. It’s manipulation, fear driven, playing on your emotions, to get you to comply.
Viruses, bugs, they’re all out there, they always have been. If this was instant death, things would be different. But it’s not, and we can’t be manipulated into living like this is the new normal. If we comply with this, it’ll never stop. 3rd wave, 10th wave, new swine flu, anything, anytime they want to control us. This is an evil psyop.
NO BRENNAN MASKS
“Why is his fear allowed to control you, possibly make you sick?”
His fear(s) don’t and did not control me. Like I said, I wanted his mind on the job, not on his home life.
Pilots have a personal checklist, for our selves, called “I’MSAFE”. Before every flight we evaluate our selves and decide if we are fit to fly or not. And we have to sign a release, that leaves the plane with other paperwork, attesting to the FAA that we are fit to fly. The statement literally says that…”I attest that I am fit for duty and can conduct this flight safely. (SIGN HERE).
If a pilot has one of these items check marked, he/she should consider not flying. Two is an almost definite don’t fly. Three or more is an absolute no-go.
I-llness
M-edication
S-tress
A-lcohol (or drugs)
F-atigue
E-motions
My wearing a mask was the best way to help support my friend and get the job done with as little stress and emotional impact as possible. I had a duty to my crew, my passengers, and the millions of people I flew over to mitigate the situation to the best of my ability.
Moreover, my employer would most definitely take my friend’s side of the argument. “SAFETY FIRST” are the two words that control everything in my profession. It HAS to be that way.
None of this is emotional. It is all cold logic and reasoning.
And so is this…
If we wear the masks, democrats lose 1/2 the battle (or more) arguing for mail-in ballots. See my Bruce Lee “be like water” analogy above.
Think of it this way….
If democrats get mail-in ballots, we lose. PERIOD. PDJT will not get re-elected. And then we really are fotally tucked!!
If wearing the masks means guaranteeing PDJT wins re-election by killing the argument and perceived need for mail-in ballots, then by God I’m gonna wear the mucking fasks and worry about the psych ops crap later.
🤨
You are actually arguing that complying with demands to wear a mask will stop the Dems from demanding mail in ballots?
They have 5,000 reasons to demand mail in ballots, and if reason 1 doesn’t work they will go right on down to reason 5,000 without batting an eyelash.
I’m not arguing anything, grandma. I’m stating an opinion, same as you. I asked, REASONABLY, for some data with a very narrow focus…
…show me where the use of masks does NOT SLOW the rate of transmission.
So far, no one here has been able to do that.
It’s all “masks don’t stop it” and “masks are bad for you”…
…neither of which address the topic of this thread.
Which is precisely the point of it to begin with. \_🤨_/
Have you looked for the data anywhere?
I would guess that since the virus is so miniscule that the very act of breathing would negate any effectiveness of a mask with comparatively huge holes.
Which is why the science shows masks don’t work.
Again, that’s not the question at hand. No one here is arguing the masks prevent the spread of the Kung flu. Not me, not anyone.
FGandC, I respect your concern, but I would worry you are not getting enough oxygen under the mask. And have to add I don’t aggree with asymptomatic people can spread the virus.
The WHO has recently announced that asymptomatic individuals rarely transmit the virus.
The lies and gaslighting are legion.
Btw, obviously neither of us passed out from CO2 poisoning. And, IMHO, that is a ridiculous argument to hand one’s hat on. See: brain surgery lasting 8+ hours.
*hang one’s hat on
Admittingly doesn’t know where I am in this thread but it seems like a nice place to ask, How comfortable would a parent be knowing the 60 yr old school bus driver is wearing a mask when they pick up the kids from school. Do you think there is a chance the lack of oxygen might impair his ability to drive the bus? Maybe even pass out?
Also the brain surgery or any surgery exceeding 4hrs normally results with no surgeries by that team for several days following because of the long term effects lack of oxygen has. Has read such often lately. Point is lack of oxygen effects every one differently depending on a wide range of variables including age, health, type mask and situation/activity. Eventually lawyers will get around to litigating each accident and further limiting our freedoms if common sense is not applied.

Study shows that doctors and nurses have significant blood oxygen depletion during long surgeries, exactly what you DON’T want the with the knife experiencing while he’s slicing away at your vitals.

“While most agree that the N95 mask can cause significant hypoxia and hypercapnia, another study of surgical masks found significant reductions in blood oxygen as well. In this study, researchers examined the blood oxygen levels in 53 surgeons using an oximeter.
They measured blood oxygenation before surgery as well as at the end of surgeries.* The researchers found that the mask reduced the blood oxygen levels (pa02) significantly. The longer the duration of wearing the mask, the greater the fall in blood oxygen levels.”

edit / correction: “…exactly what you DON’T want the DOCTOR with the knife experiencing while he’s slicing away at your vitals.”
Yeah, masks make me loopy and affect memory. I have to breathe hard to keep my pO2 at 97-99. Would not want a doctor doing surgery to go down to low 90s or worse 80s.

Or a pilot!
Unless his name is something like Lance Manion (that was Sammy’s alias on Cheers! 😁 )
This tells me that docs need a highly mobile oxygen delivery mask during surgery. Time for inventors to fix this stuff.
I wear a “social mask” occasionally, briefly, but I breathe hard through it to keep from going woozy – it’s totally ridiculous.
If we are forced to wear masks, I’ll just go back to lockdown mode. Go out, buy a bunch of stuff in one day of mask hell, stay home, and help tank the economy.
I understand. But your condition is the exception, not the norm.
I think you will see gradations of the same thing. People who hate masks will be driven out of the public square.
We’ll have to create – wait for it – SPEAKEASIES! 😉
Ha!
He’s here every night, folks! And don’t forget to tip your waiter or waitress.
Or, as I like to say — tip the veal and try your waitress….
Ah ha! The voice of experience.
At this point I’d like to point out thay, from my perspective, no one has addressed the specific point I brought up.
No one has shown, or even attempted to show, that wearing the masks does NOT SLOW the rate of transmission.
Once again….the argument is NOT that masks prevent transmission…..and I am not looking for emotional argument.
Just the facts, please. Just the facts as it relates to SLOWING the rate of transmission.
I will assume that any lack of response to this post means no one has any unemotional, scientific facts to show that wearing the masks does NOT slow the rate of transmission…
….which, of course, is the #1 argument for wearing the masks.
(NOTE: Once again, let me say, I hate the damn things as much as I hate the reasons for them. But the virus IS real, and emotional temper tantrums and obstinance won’t make it go away)
Mandate goggles, too. They will slow transmission even more. Motorcycle helmets work better than goggles, but that’s ridiculous. Goggles are not ridiculous.
Latex gloves, too. Gotta mandate them. They will help. We don’t know how much, but they will help.
I’m staying home, so I’m loading all you other jokers up with as much nonsense as I can! 😀
We could talk about actual OPTIMAL stuff, but no – it’s too late for that. Abbott screwed the pooch, and DeWine will follow. Time to burn it all down. I’m going to push Brennan masks until they cause a rebellion! We need goggles and gloves, too!
Buy your goggles, buddy! I’ve got a bunch of them. But I won’t need them, except to go out in my yard, which I won’t do, so my lawn can go to hell and become great for hiding in the weeds with my guns!!! 😉

Buy your’s today!
