OK...so I read the comments quickly...hopefully I didn't miss anything of consequence...
First let me explain why I am the "expert" when it comes to "masks." I use respirators in my business. I have three different types, a half mask respirator, a full face respirator, and what a PaPR, (Powered, air Purifier Respirator) which i use in my business.
In order to fully understand the full scope of this demonic "from your father the devil, the father of the lie", deception, we have to, start with the definition of "respirator". A respirator, is a "mask that covers your mouth and nose and filters______(fill in the blank.) So immediately we have at least two or three problems. First is this; if you are required to wear a respirator for example in a line of work where it is required to keep you safe, the LAW, (not made up mandates, the actual law), requires that you are given a medical evaluation, to make sure you can safely wear a respirator.
In other words, you have to pass a type of physical examine to make sure wearing a mask does not endanger you equally, from the thing you are trying to protect yourself from. That is to say, the mask can be JUST AS BAD, as what you are trying to protect yourself from, and before your employer can require you to wear a "respirator" in the first place it is the law they find out if it is safe for you to wear a mask. (BTW, it is something like a $30,000 fine per day per offense, but don't quote me on the exact figures, that I would have to look up, but you get the idea).
So let me explain what this means so far, if the governments actually followed their own laws, anyone who required anyone to wear a mask, customers or otherwise, were breaking a 60 year old law. More about that in a minute.
So...are these "masks" respirators? No of course not. Let me prove this unequivocally. Go to Home Depot, Lowes, a paint supplier, any where where they sell, respirators, and read the label. Something most people don't do, hence this mass deception. The label's themselves tell you what they filter, and how long the filter lasts. An N-95 for example, is only good for a few hours, and then needs to be discarded. Think of the lint filter in your dryer...once that thing is full, it no longer works (and is a fire danger)...same with an actual respirator. So the point is, these "masks" were not "regulated" by OSHA, so they are not subject to those laws. By why not? I'll give you a hint, search in a search engine something like, what do I need to protect my lungs____and fill in the blanks. The reason your "hanky" in the shape of a dust mask or N-95 mask doesn't show up, is because they DO NOT FILTER JACK----So this is the real deception...and they all know it is a lie! But inj the lie, is the requirement, for mask wearing, because they know they do not come under the regulations of a respirator, but not because they do not cause a strain on your body by covering your mouth and nose, but because they studied first FILTERING particulates, then they found out the strain a respirator had on a person's body, was taxing. In fact, they know covering your mouth and nose is taxing, and actual respirators are designed to mitigate at least some of that strain!
The respirators used in industries where they are required has been studied extensively, for 60 years. That is why, until Covid, nobody sold this BS crap, (hanky's people call a mask, or anything that covers your mouth and nose but does NOT filter). and why they still do not disclose that that Sh---filters anything, because it does NOT! This is not up for debate either! The "Science" on this one is actually closed! For one thing, because if respirator manufacturers claim a respirator filters something and it does not...LAWSUIT, CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT! But what if the government says to wear a mask, in fact requires it...NO LAWSUIT for the manufacturer!!!!!! But the manufacturer will NOT put on the label that it filters a virus that is inordinately smaller than say, atomized paint particles!
Want me to tell you how this is even worse? Probably not, but I am sure you know you need to hear it. WT, knows EVERY BIT OF this. How do I know? Because they HAVE TO COMPLY with OSHA regulations, in ALL CONSTRUCTION projects!!!! 100% they knew this was BS!
BTW, if you want I will post once again, the MANDATORY OSHA form that is required by law, to give to anyone who needs to wear a respirator, in their work.
In fact, I have thought about printing it, and handing it out to people wearing masks!
On a related side note, i have a theory why black people wear the masks more than anyone else, not sure exactly why it's woman, although, I may know in my answer, it's because of the way this government has mistreated black people. So they have had fear stoked into them for generations! And woman are just inherently, well women!!!
OK, I think I covered everything...but if not...I can and will...just ask away!!!!
The Covid thing woke me up too, beginning with the mask BS! If I were you, and still going to meetings, and if I didn't care what the Elders would do, iI would go to every meeting and hand out the OSHA medical evaluation to every person wearing a mask! And I would ask, "why do you think Satan's systems suddenly stopped it's regulations on mask wearing?" And If I really wanted to stir the pot, I would ask why they thought the GB didn't know this!!!!!
