Karen Bass floated banning masks for protesters days before coming down with Covid-19.

    Are we talking about N95s? Oh, hang on, I recognize this username, we’re talking about whatever delusions you’re having today.

    The weirdest thing about masks is how easy it was to brainwash the “muh freedoms” crowd against covering their faces just by having a clown in orange facepaint say masks are effeminate. Hope you all enjoy having your entries in everyone’s facial recognition database.

      I am actually just going with “muh science” and “muh statistics” on this one… But if all you guys pretend that masks and lockdowns worked then maybe it will become true!

        Sure. Browsing YouTube until you find someone who shares your delusions isn’t “science.”

          I actually used the government data, but sure, you can believe whatever youtube science you want.

            Nah. Let’s read papers from actual scientists. You know, instead of having you look at VAERS and hallucinate conclusions that match your preexisting biases.

              Cool, but that data is irrelevant to what I am talking about.

                All data is irrelevant to the delusions you are having.

            Having raw data is only useful if you’re literate.

                You remind me of the election deniers that claim to have mountains of evidence but absolutely refuse to share that evidence.

        Consider using the stats proved by the rest of the world. It’s got an amazing sample set.
