It's tweeter, not real life. That said, wearing a mask over your eyes whilst reading twitter is probably a good idea mental health wise. Getting off it even better. Looking around me today, I don't see anybody masking so you're probably right about the trolling.
The greatest concern is this tweet storm was instigated by an (alleged) MD, whose training should make her know better. Masking is a fetish driven by ignorance and the fear that derives from ignorance. Political opportunists have taken advantage of that ignorance to tighten population controls. We usually are able to suppress them, but societies still fall for socialist tyrants from time to time. We will either attack the ignorance, or the tyrants, or learn to tolerate tyranny.
Every time I read “People in East Asia always wore masks,” I want to punch the wall. People is East Asia wore masks when they were ill. Healthy people hardly ever wore masks.
And even in late March 2020 after most of America and Europe had locked down, the majority of Japanese PMs still weren’t wearing masks.
Masking was not widely accepted in the Asian countries I've been to several times for work (Thailand, China, Japan, Burma, Malaysia, Singapore). This is a disinfo campaign, preying on feebleminded covidiots who like hiding behind their masks and laptops while anointing themselves "heroes."
Incoherence is the point of a lot of this. We have brainwashed people out of their inherent common sense. Or maybe if we used to use common sense as the basis of teaching, it has been eliminated? Either way, this chaos and mental instability is the result. With the intention of debilitating and enslaving society. Many clearly prefer safe slavery over risky freedom.
You ask a very good question. This form of 'copypasta' is being used by some entities to 'nudge' (or should we say 'steamroller'?) public opinion. It doesn't just influence public opinion, it can be used to target individual politicians or decisionmakers.
This carpet-bombing copypasta approach featured in my March 2020 counterfactual where the Prime Minister declares: "What we hadn’t reckoned with was social media and the extent to which it had been infiltrated by, how shall I put it, state actors..." (see https://alexstarling77.substack.com/p/2029-retiring-prime-minister-boris).
I think the people who claim pre-covid mask wearing are liars, too, unless they’re in the medical profession w/ easy access. If anyone remembers, in early 2020 there were no masks to be had, certainly not commercially. Couldn’t get construction ones @ hardware stores either. I had friends who sewed masks for the community. And of course the a$$#ole powers that be, including Faux-Xi, pretended the flip-flop “little white lie” about people not needing masks was to preserve masks for the medical community.
In 2020 I was supportive of masking and I considered the East Asian habit of masking during cold and flu season, especially for people who commuted on extremely crowded public transport, to be a sensible courtesy.
On the other hand I'm always uneasy about over-admiring cultures whose highest virtue is conformity and compliance with authority.
Burn them fucking masks now. I mean, we believe in evolution, right? Our hard database has evolved too.
I have spoken to so many people about mask wearing. There are many opinions. One person told me she just started wearing a mask because she thinks Bill Gates will release a dangerous new virus soon. Many people said they wore masks when mandated, but now will never wear one again. Some people wear masks inside grocery stores if they hear someone sneezing close by. Some people wear masks for allergy reasons. Everyone has been through a lot of trauma and realizes that governments have lied. A few people want everyone to be forced to wear masks in public places. Interestingly, these people also think that vaccines prevent death from covid. Most people agree that they should be permitted to make decisions for themselves, and that all forms of government mandated alternations to our bodies should be abolished. As long as mandates by governments and institutions are ended and made illegal, I don’t care what anyone wears on any part of their body or what anyone takes into their body, as long as I am not forced to do the same.
I know people in Canada that plan to mask forever. Their reasons are as in the above tweets:
1. No flu in 2 years
2. Asia has been making for years.
Neither science nor facts resonate with these people. Every time I see someone walking alone with a mask on I weep in my heart at the public disgrace, and I moan that such a thing happened in a so called advanced society rooted in science. I blame it on a lying and corrupt media.

Seems more and more likely the CCP is practicing some breathtaking new global warfare - doing things our effete side would never have thought of.
Manipulating us easily by preying on those weaknesses they always said we had. Proving themselves to have been right all along.
Even the Shanghai thing might be part of the whole strategy. 10% of the world's shipping now at anchor in Shanghai waiting to be unloaded. Or perhaps also to get in and load. I don't know. But 10% of the world's shipping stuck stationary has an inevitable effect on the flow of goods and it is not a good effect.
For the maskers let them have their masks, right? Welcome to them. Flag themselves for what they are, that's all to the good. But resist fiercely with fire and sword if necessary any mandating of them. Is all.

Michael Jackson deserves a little credit as an early masker.
Twitter is 85% bots, 10% paid trolls, and 5% nincompoops.
So, like, ummm, who cares what they say?

Obvious bots and trolls. China’s 50 cent army at work!

It's a strange twilight zone, a place where millions want to remain masked....very strange. Very scary indeed.
