The disintegration of the cult of the mask ⋆ Brownstone Institute

On Monday, major US airlines abruptly dropped their mask masks after a federal judge overturned the CDC’s mandate for national travel masks. Since then, the Covid cult has been in a state of apoplexy. Below is a collection of some of the most invaluable doubles.

I’m happy to announce that I will be smoking cigarettes on my next flight with @Delta, because I’m not really worried about my health risks and @Delta puts my personal freedom first.

Apparently breathing is the same as smoking now, according to Bess Kalb. Kalb is best known for her early 2020 story of all the young people her father saw in the intensive care unit who suddenly fell dead from Covid, which she blamed on their sinful trips to the beach.

My father is a doctor in the intensive care unit who treats patients with COVID-19. During the past WEEK he also asked “I have never seen a heart rhythm / number of red blood cells / etc. like this ”records than in his decades-long career. What this virus does to the body is like “put your finger in electrical contact.” Stay home.

It remains unclear whether Kalb’s father ever treated patients with Covid in the intensive care unit. Former Surgeon General Jerome Adams follows.

Fly today. Pilot @delta (🤯) walked past me at the airport and said, take off your mask, man, breathless!

Why do those who feel so strongly that others impose their beliefs on them (in health, well-being and compassion) feel so free to impose their beliefs on others ?! pic.twitter.com/UQDXcLCoWN

Imposing your beliefs on others … who would do such a thing ?! Oh wait… Here’s former Labor Minister Robert Reich.

Maybe there is something wrong with a system that allows a 35-year-old, unelected, Trump-nominated judge – whom the American Bar Association deems unqualified – to revoke the mandate of the nationwide travel mask?

Is something wrong with the system … like in a constitutional democracy? Fortunately, Abdi seems to have the right solution.

you take off your masks on the plane I shout Allahu Akbar until other masks are placed on them don’t fuck with me

That’s right: You don’t agree with a court order for forced disguise, you threaten to blow up the whole system to make your way. Although it may not be necessary, according to Alex Steed.

Our flight attendant, who just celebrated that she can “see everyone’s smiling faces” (“even if you’re wearing a mask, we’re happy you’re here”), now apologizes for suddenly having a hoarse voice.

It certainly takes more than a few seconds to get symptoms of Covid, but what do I know. Then there is this conclusion from Aubrey Hirsch.

If you hate the idea of ​​having to wear a mask on a plane against your will, wait until you hear that you have to carry an unwanted pregnancy in your body on a plane against your will.

– Aubrey Hirsch (@aubreyhirsch) April 19, 2022

Imagine that you are from another culture and you are trying to make sense of this tweet. Hell, I’ve lived in America all my life, I’ve reread this tweet about five times, and I still can’t figure out what the hell Aubrey is talking about. Although in her defense, he is still a little more consistent than Evan Greer’s conclusion.

Airlines that fly masks in flight are such a classic example of capitalism that is mocked by consent. People boarded the plane with the understanding that others would be disguised. Suddenly, they are trapped 10,000 feet in a deadly COVID trap, free for all. Nightmare nonsense.

– Evan Greer (@evan_greer) April 19, 2022

Capitalism is mocked by consent … maybe try communism and let us know how it works. Fortunately, Andrea Juncker has the right solution.

I will just keep wearing the mask until there are only those who wear masks.

– Andrea Juncker (@Strandjunker) April 19, 2022

I think Andrea can wait a long time. Or not, because the Biden administration seems to be appealing the decision. As Jen Psaki tells us:

Jen Psaki says Biden is appealing the decision on the mandate of the federal masks in order to “retain this power that the CDC will have in the future”.

This is true. The administration is appealing the decision against the mandate of the mask in order to “retain this power for the CDC”. Strength, in the purest sense. Of course, a state of emergency cannot have an end, because there has never been a legal beginning.

Remarkably, there is no analysis in any of these conclusions of any analysis of how many lives masks are supposed to save, any analysis of the cost of wearing masks or, most importantly, exactly when masks’ mandates should end. Although there is one notable exception.

People: WILL YOU SIGN UP FOREVER

Me: I still wear seat belts and helmets, I use sunscreen, I get vaccinated, I wash my hands, I drink pasteurized milk, I cook chicken before I eat it and I don’t drink water straight from the lake, so 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍ ♀️

This is true. Honestly, this tweet isn’t really funny, it’s actually just awful. Here it is, literally, in the most obvious possible terms: Masks forever, with 137,000 likes and counting.
