It is difficult to believe that Public HealthTM is trying to force America to mask up again, but here we are.
The question is, why?
The dirty secret is this: Masks don’t work by controlling the virus. Masks work by controlling the people.
If we’re talking about stopping the spread of the virus, masks simply don’t work.
But if we’re talking about stoking fear, instilling blind obedience to state authorities, sowing discord between citizens, and publicly “outing” skeptics and dissidents – in other words, creating an authoritarian, even totalitarian system of public health – then masks work very well indeed.
