COVID-19 Thoughts Part 53: The political statement of Face Masks

A few nights ago, I heard Sean Hannity speak about face masks being a temporary thing. He goes along with the face mask recommendations as a way to honor other people and make sure they can never get sick, and make them feel safe and good. You know all those things that our media tells you that is right. Hannity says he wants face masks to be a temporary thing, and so do I.

The danger however is that the progressives will use the pandemic of COVID-19 to make face masks a permanent form of clothing on all Americans if not the whole world. Oh they will talk about the other sickness as well, but they will tell us that face masks will have to be used until it’s safe. Safe is the key word here, nothing is 100 percent safe, and as Dennis Prager stated recently; “Until It’s Safe, Means Never.”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has not been consistent on face masks. Before the COVID-19 pandemic was declared; Dr. Anthony Fauci did say that face masks were not helpful when it came to slowing down the spread of COVID. Today however he is all in for face masks and the Democrats themselves are calling for making them mandatory. They say it’s all about respect for your fellow human race, your fellow neighbor. The left however I strongly believe wants to make face masks into a new statement of sorts.

Do you know about certain dress codes that governments impose on people. Well of course your heard about the areas of the world in which women can’t show any skin and must be fully clothed right? Well there’s that, but their is more to it.

Yes ladies, you have to wear niqabs and/or abayas in order to show respect for sex starved Muslim men in Saudi Arabia. The men however can be punished for cross dressing and acting/behaving feminine. In France, they are not taking kindly to the burqas. In Meteora, Greece; men and women are required to cover up their skin in honor of modesty codes that their local churches hold to. In North Korea of all places, western clothing is seen as evil, and even the hair styles must be government approved. Women can be punished for wearing jeans or trousers.

American progressives for years hyped the Nordic countries of Northern Europe, especially Sweden in order to sell the perfect socialist paradise to American body politic. For once we should actually listen to them, but it is on something that the American left would disagree with them on. Denmark, Finland, Norway, and above all Sweden, all have declared that they don’t recommended face masks. The Danish Health Authority stated that they not only discourage face masks, but they can cause more harm especially if the masks are not used and disposed of properly.

So ask yourself; what are the face masks really all about? Is it about keeping our brothers and sisters safe from COVID-19? What if you’re suppose to wear these masks for even something minor than COVID-19...such as the common flu? You think that would never happen? Your only kidding yourself. There are those among us that question the face masks and it’s not just because of Northren Europe, but also the inconsistency of Dr. Fauci himself and the CDC. Just recently that COVID-19 vaccine you have heard so much about? Well the good doctor named Fauci has just declared that it may not be ready by the year 2021...to no once’s surprise...at least to those who have become skeptical to Dr. Fauci’s tactics and flip flopping.

Remember that song from Cuban Hip-Hop artist Mellow Man Ace called Mentirosa (Spanish for a woman who is a “Liar”)? Well I think Dr. Fauci is a straight “Mentiroso” (Liar has gender pronouns in the Spanish translation). Today he tells us something, y manana es otra cosa (and Tomorrow Something Else).

So will we ever get to remove our face masks once the COVID-19 pandemic is over with? If certain people in government have it their way; the answer is one big fat NO! The face masks will become a sign of a new respect (and why I brought up the dress codes in the first place). A respect for dictatorial government authority and the fact that the common citizen has no voice and should never have a voice. Cause unlike the government they are feeble minded and need to be put out of the way. Yes, we who believe in self-government strongly believe that the face mask will become (if not already) a statement of complement submission to the state. We would not be raising cain on this, had it not be for uncertainty about COVID-19 from our government.

Some will wear face masks within reason, but we will make sure that it does not become a tool for the tyrants to impose on us as they attempt to steal with rightfully belongs to the common people. Other countries have their dress codes, let us make sure that face masks does become one among the western world.

Either masks work or they don't. If you're going to compel mask use, then open everything up. Otherwise this isn't about public health but tyranny. If the mask is truly the antidote here, then give us our life back.-Steve Deace
