"Disobedience is the true foundation of liberty. The obedient must be slaves."

—Henry David Thoreau

@coyote @neo As someone of partial Asian descent, I can say that Asian cultures have a lot of superstitions like mask wearing. One weird one I heard of is that squatting while pregnant can lead to miscarriages. Hell, the "don't open umbrellas inside" superstition originated in Asia

@Babad It's getting really scary for you guys up there. I hope you are able to get through this somehow.

@coyote @neo Also, before anyone brings up how East Asians wear masks, remember that they also have a better diet, are more likely to walk to work as opposed to driving, and practice better hygiene in general. The mask plays no factor in that.

@neo the science is fairly settled, go back to the 1918 Spanish Flu and see what people said about masks during that pandemic anytime before 2019, the science has always been clear that a cloth mask will lead to more disease than it helps, and no, it doesn't protect against the flu

@mac_ack "These pretend infection numbers say we were right all along about silencing and firing medical professionals who were calling out our methods as scientifically unsound. Now get the lethal injection, or Eurasia wins."

@Jackuu @mac_ack imagine trusting anything the CDC has to say after the last two years.

what's their current gag? wear a mask anyway even if vaxed but still please get vaxed because they actually do something™

Canadian government is starting to mandate vaccines... "The vaccination requirement will also extend to certain travellers. This includes all commercial air travellers, passengers on interprovincial trains, and passengers on large marine vessels with overnight accommodations, such as cruise ships." They're really going to force this on us, aren't they?

Yeah CNN, it's their vaccine status, can't be any other factors at play here. Healthy at any size, except when you get the wuflu, then you're just dead.

@eris if masks and lockdowns work why do places with lockdowns that release their lockdown often see an ease in cases? Also, if masks and lockdowns work, why do places with lockdowns fairly consistently have higher death totals than places that don't, all the while other comparisons yield have nearly no difference?

There's literally no logical reason for there to be 0 cases of flu, and no, if the masks and lockdowns were sufficient enough to stop the flu, they would have helped at least somewhat consistently with COVID, and since COVID numbers are either higher or no different than places without lockdowns versus with them, there's literally no way for that to be true.

Furthermore, there's nothing we *did* that would have eradicated the flu since COVID started, we didn't do anything except enter a pandemic and by March 2020 flu had started dropping, which was before a lot of the lockdowns. There's no causal link between masks and flu disappearing.

For the past three weeks in the entire US there hasn't been one single positive identification of flu, for three whole weeks. Not a single one reported by the CDC.

I hope people realize how little sense this makes.

@ArdanianRight It needs to be 100% voluntary though. A lot of people are proposing that we modify humans to fight climate change (meat intolerance, cat-like vision to reduce the need for lights, etc) and governments could make that mandatory. Other than that, I'm all 100% for it.

@xianc78 Who said I was against genetic research? Some aspects might be weird and unsettling but it's gonna happen and it can do a lot of good too.

@ArdanianRight Just stop pussying around and embrace genetic engineering, human cloning, and stem cell research. Fuck the moralfags who say otherwise.

They are intending on using vaccine passports to turn your rights into a subscription service that you have to renew via a booster shot every 6 months.

@ArdanianRight @dubh @ChristiJunior@neckbeard.xyz @EmmaFaber The era of human genetic engineering is coming but it's for the worst.
