Discussion Thread: Mask Day!

It’s July 24th and, as of today, it is now a regulation under UK law that people wear masks (or face coverings of some kind) inside shops, stores and supermarkets.

Not on the street, or inside pubs and restaurants (which have been open for weeks), but inside shops and on public transport. Breaking this rule could result in £100 fine.

UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock said, when he announced the rules, that these measures were meant to protect retail staff:

Sadly, sales assistants, cashiers and security guards have suffered disproportionately in this crisis.”

However, it should be noted that these regulations do not apply to staff, only customers.

The problem that will arise is that no seems to be sure whose job it is to enforce these rules.

Many of the supermarket chains have said that enforcing the rules is not their job. ASDA, Tesco and Sainsbury’s all released statements on the same theme: while they will request people “do their part”, they will NOT be responsible for enforcing the rules. While some police officials have pointed out there are simply too many stores and too few police officers to have any hope of widely enforcing the rules.

Have you been forced to wear a mask? Are your local stores following the rules? If so, how are they enforcing them?

These are “interesting times” in the sense of the Chinese curse “May you live in interesting times”. What most here are aware of, either consciously or at some instinctive level, is that some kind of dark magick is at play in our reality. There is, we see, a vast orchestrated global mind-control exercise being driven by the behavioural psychologists and made possible by compliant media. The great mass of humanity has been sucked into this trauma focused exercise and they have lost all reason, lost all rationality, become automatically compliant with the most ridiculous and damaging regulations. But there’s more at work here. The “mask” wearing, the taught behaviours of snitching, of “shaming” mask “refusers” (why didn’t they use “deniers”, as in “global warming deniers” or “vaccine deniers”?) is creating, in the minds of the programmed masses a sense that they are a part of “something” and that those who… Read more »

Yes. Now that AI and robotics can replace most jobs, the unelected billionaires, central bankers and their lackeys, the politicians, can root out and dispose of those of us who are unwilling to step into their bioterrorism live exercise and become supplicants to their genetic modification trans-human experiment with a dangerous untested mRNA vaccine that will permanently change our DNA. Why scientists who aren’t on the NIH-DARPA-GATES payroll aren’t screaming in unison about the potential dangers of this technology introduced en mass for a virus that’s never even been proven to exist outside a BSL4 DARPA funded lab is baffling and bizarre. There’s a definite strategy going on. • Introduce the mask mandates. • Induce illness and depression through the social distancing and lack of oxygen. • Restrict travel and income to magnify desperation and frustration. • Stoke hysteria in the crowd mind to turn mask wearers and non-mask wearers… Read more »

You can download a Govt examption card from here https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/face-coverings-when-to-wear-one-and-how-to-make-your-own/face-coverings-when-to-wear-one-and-how-to-make-your-own

You don’t need a doctor’s letter (I’ve checked this with local surgery). You can self certify that you feel ‘extreme distress’ wearing a mask, in the very unlikely event of being quizzed by the police. Otherwise, no requirement to explain yourself to shop staff or the public.

The notice can be hung on cord round neck and with its NHS colour taps into the hallowed deference many seem to have to the medical monolith that passes for healthcare in the UK.

I went into a big Tesco at 10.30am on day one of mask day without a mask. The staff just ignored me however on the way out I was stopped by a middle aged customer who was basically very unpleasant. Put your mask on they shouted- and I was on my way out. When I said I had a health problem and should I have worn a mask I might needed to have been picked up collpased from the floor down aisle 2, the reply was “good I don’t care if you were dead!”. I asked them to keep their opinions to themselves and pointed out that they knew nothing about anyone else’s circumstances so some tolerance would be nice. It fell on deaf ears. Sadly the brainwashing has gone very far and there is no logic nor moral behaviour by many who have been so gullible. You probably won’t… Read more »

I have been following this from day one and felt ill when they announced the measures they would take. As I read the status of most countries and try to realise why I found once piece of unverifiable but logical piece of information. Rothschild’s own all Reserve or national banks of government or close to it. Therefore they as globalists are behind this and masks are just one small piece of the humiliating puzzle.

I just say I’m exempt. No one has questioned it so far. Went through airport security with no dramas. Been shopping in Sainsburys no problems. Although I have to say I did feel slightly nervous the first time I did it, but it’s too important not to. I think if people see more people not complying they will think twice about doing it themselves since most people clearly know it’s rubbish and are only doing it because they assume they have to. Plus it’s nice for people to see a smiling face. FYI Portugal are militant on it in the main tourist areas. GNR (5-0) are really gunning for you out on the town.

Below is a translation (mine, so maybe not perfect) from an article in German on the Swiss Policy Research website. That article is a perfect example to show how ridiculous the idea of using these masks are – if containing the spread of infection is the goal (which is obviously is not). Right now the German text is featured on their front page, for those of you that want to read in the original: https://swprs.org/ Tönnies: Corona outbreak despite obligatory masks. In June, 1413 people tested positive for the new coronavirus at the main plant of the German meat processor Tönnies (including 1766 people). There were as far as is known no deaths (IFR 0.0%), but five employees were put into intensive care. Using viral gene sequences, a new study was able to reconstruct that the original contagion was not outside, but withinthe workplace: a single employee infected other employees… Read more »

On a ferry from France to UK masks are obviously compulsory. A man was handing them out for irresponsible ones who didn’t have them already and I said I am exempt. My husband followed. I must say, after being thrown out of a petrol station in Germany for not wearing a nappy, it felt amazing to walk down the corridors knowing we were brave enough to stand up for what we honestly believe in.

Here in Austria we already had to wear masks (in shops, public transport) after Easter but as the “case numbers” were low they suspended the mandatory mask-wearing in mid-June. Now it was re-introduced under the pretext of “rising numbers”. The reality is that the percentage of positive test-results has been fairly constant since the end of May: 1,5%. In other words 98,5% of the daily tests have been NEGATIVE and only 0,6% of “confirmed cases” need hospital treatment and 10% of those end up in the ICU  (there is no COVID-19 “epidemic” here). But as they keep increasing the number of tests, the absolute numbers of “positive cases” appear to be rising also. What they are not telling the public is that the false-positive rate (min. 1%) of the PCR-test is a huge problem when the prevalence is so low. Let me give an example: If you do 2.000 tests per… Read more »

I live in Comunidad Valencia in south Spain. We have had house arrest for 14 weeks from 14March only being allowed out one at a time per household only to visit the dr or buy essential items at one’s nearest supermarket. The only other shops allowed to open were pharmacies, tobacconists, and dry cleaners. Mask wearing inside shops, hospitals, and public transportation has been mandatory since then. No traveling outside your health region was permitted. No going outside for exercise, children not allowed out of their homes, and for dog owners a short walk with the dog was permitted. Heavy fines of up to €6000 was the penalty for breaking these confinement rules. Then, in May, we were allowed out of our homes without masks on the street if one could keep 2meters distance from others. Now, since last weekend, the rules have changed again. Mask wearing outside ones home… Read more »

I am trying to get people to see what is happening and where this is going, but they just seem brainless and make me feel like I’m am the dummy. What do we do to stop this and how can we do it?

There’s a local councillor from the green party who is advising disabled people to stay at home and shop online because she believes everybody should wear a mask all the time. I’m not on social media and have no intention of so being – but this is blatantly contrary to guidance and law. This woman is a harridan who has been trying to get the local council to narrow the high street, have a speed limit of 20mph and pedestrianise the current parking area to enable more footfall and cycling opportunities

We are constantly being told that the reason for masks at a distance of 6 feet is primarily to prevent transfer of droplets caused by coughs or sneezes (ie. potentially indicative of ‘active’ Covid19 infection). I can honestly say that over the past 5 months I myself have not been aware of one person within audible or visual proximity to me coughing or sneezing, either masked or maskless. I cannot be alone in this. Based on this personal ‘survey’ can it really be contended that forcing everyone to wear masks is a proportionate measure? In fact, I am desperate to see someone sneezing into a mask just so I can see how they deal with the consequences!

I witnessed a woman sneezing into her face nappy the other day. As I turned the corner she came into my view. At that moment she witnessed me, witnessing her, violently sneeze into her mask. She looked at me in horror and embarrassment. She was queuing to go into a shop at the time and I did wonder to myself how she would feel going around the shop wearing that snotty muzzle.

I have had the same thought myself– even through allergy season, I haven’t noticed any conspicuous sneezers or coughers when I’m out.

The persons or organizations hyping the “droplet propulsion” bugaboo seem as though they live in an imaginary world where the Megadeath Virus of Doom has bred crowds of afflicted persons sneezing, coughing, and hacking up a storm.

Or else they piously subscribe to the article of faith that if the masks stop even one droplet from infecting an innocent bystander, the compulsory, universal mask-wearing edict is justified.

Like you I just cannot bear the mask on my face. I carry an exemption card.

BUT – that guard had no right in his capacity as staff to ask you what your condition is. At least here in USA. ADA and HIPA (or whatever the letters are) prevent it. No one can ask you (it is actually fine-able) and you do not have to provide an explanation.

a) I can’t breathe properly wearing a mask
b) I feel like an animal
c) I feel ashamed
d) I feel like a criminal
e) It lowers my self esteem
f) It impairs my depth perception and sense of balance
g) It interferes with my vision, especially when looking down to watch where I step

etc

Can any one human being experience what I experience and tell me that I CAN breathe properly wearing a mask? Prove it. You can not.

But, the medical exemption is covered within the Law, so you have a legal right not to wear the mask, at least in the UK, I don’t know about elsewhere, if you have a physical and / or mental health condition that would be worsened by wearing it. Kind of ironic you might have to claim you’re mad to be sane, but if wearing the mask makes you depressed then arguably that could be a mental health condition

Yes I went maskless to shop recently in a co-op in Scotland, no stares or challenges from staff or shoppers. That security guard in Bristol had NO RIGHT to question you about your condition….that is illegal and he should be reported to his employer and relevant authorities on the grounds of disability discrimination.

I live in France, we’ve had the mask law since last Monday. Originally The Macaroon said , the new rules would come into effec on the 1st of August, but he rushed it through, leaving me no time to stock up on toilet roll nor dog biscuits, presumably he was trying to catch covid by surprise. Well, the locals are wearing their masks, mostly around the neck, easy to quickly whip it on if a law enforcement officer should appear. I managed to sneak into both the tabac and the local wholefood shop, scurrying about my shopping business like a criminal, entry to the bank and the multinational supermarché however was not allowed, other shoppers were glaring and growling, forcing me to make a hasty retreat and ponder on Vichy and whether I should bolt for Sweden.

I had the very same issue here in South Africa. I refuse to wear a mask, and walk into shops without wearing one or sanitizing. When a guard does stop me I say oh sorry forgot, put it on, and soon as I walk a few paces it’s off again. Once however, as I walked in freely, one customer bitched that I wasn’t wearing one. Security made me leave lol. Yesterday I wore it over my neck at one supermarket. One douche approaches me and says: I think you’re supposed to wear that over your face. I replied: no shit Sherlock. How’d you figure that one out?

Eleven days in and still have avoided the obligatory nappy. France isn’t like the UK, we don’t have the Magma Carta or Common Law, so, the Governement can change laws at will and have….Still it’s very rural here, most small enterprises have already gone under, so those that haven’t, hail the local wholefood shop, are currently turning a blind eye to their nude faced clients, I assure you here that dog biscuits are excrutiatingly expensive in afore mentioned wholefood shop….Not sure how long this can last, most people are treating the mask law as a game, including the small shopkeepers, but one local grocery store just got fined 800e for letting non nappy wearing clients enter their premises…And my boss told me today, that people like me should be either forceably vaccinated or sectioned…I really had zero response…

Note the date of the ‘introduction’: July 24 – ’24/7′.

The face nappy rule began with transport, now extended to shops.

So, there’s the clue: the next ‘rule’ will be mandatory nappy wearing ALL the time when in public, 24/7.

Oh, thats just a coincidence, a conspiracy theory, will doubtless say the covid Cult nutters. Well, if the cultists are right, then the mask rule would have been applied immediately to make sense: it’s saving lives, right?

Been to Tescos and Asda today without either a mask or a exemption badge, lanyard etc. Although I appeared to be the only one there without a mask, I was not challenged in any way, (did get a few disapproving looks from other customers though and one or 2 grumbling to each other about me though). To be fair I couldn’t hear what they were saying as they all sound like ‘Kenny’ off South Park in those masks anyway! Have decided if it costs me £50 extra a week to walk around the shop without a mask on (which is what the fine is if paid promptly) it’ll be worth it. The stores were very quiet though compared to before. I guess some people are just living off their stashed supplies.

I read on Friday that since they introduced the mandatory masks on London transport, police have stopped and questioned 20k people about not wearing masks, and issued a sum total of 61 fines! My take on that was that if you give them pretty much any answer other than ‘fuck off I’m not wearing a mask’ you’ll be fine.

I also found this difficult to believe. But if you take the numbers at face value, this is what you get. Demographics and socio-economics play a part. Similarly, truck drivers have disproportionately suffered, though they tend to have far fewer interactions. By selectively choosing your statistics, you get the result you want.

In the same way, the “disproprtionate” impact on the BAME communities changes significantly if you adjust for all relevant factors. In this case, Chinese and Bangaldeshis are at least 20% less likely to die. Blacks are 30% (not 4 times) more likely to die, but they are also 30% more likely to be obese.

Oh but I will say they HAVE suffered disproportionately! They are covered up in those nappies WITH a swat team plastic visor over their face behind a plexiglass window for hours on end!! How do they do it!!

And between each customer they have to wash down EVERYTHING!! It’s a good thing they are wearing the shield so they don’t have to suck in the chemicals from the cleaning agents all day long.

Oh they have suffered alright. Imagine how many times they have to ask “Pardon me?” when a masked customer asks them something from six feet away behind the plexiglass window?

On top of that – they have to look at each other. How do they not choke with laughter.

Yeah, I would say that sadly the cashiers have suffered a great deal.

Of course that’s just my take. Who knows – they may be lovin’ it.

I’m one of those people who “take notice” of cashiers, waitstaff, etc. and chat or joke with them until I reach the threshold of “holding up the line” or inconveniencing other patrons. In my former vanished lifetime, when I went out to dinner with relatives, they always ended up waiting for me outside while I finished up a spontaneous chat with a restaurant or shop employee. My conviviality is usually reciprocated. Anyway, sad to say, in my experience the cashiers at the local supermarket and smaller food market are not enjoying the lockdown regimen at all; they look weary. One or two seem to have rebounded from earlier doldrums, and are again more or less their formerly pleasant and cheerful selves– but this is clearly in spite of the onerous fetish rituals, not because of it. And there is the general malaise that dampens everyone’s spirits– except for the perpetrators of this… Read more »

I asked one visor wearing cashier the other day,”Have you been doing some strimming?”, she just glared at me haha. Another pretty girl cashier in the bank with a green cloth face mask on, I said to her “Ah, Doctor, I’ve got this strange feeling in my groin, could you have a look?”. She didn’t find it funny. It seems the whole world has lost it’s sense of humour. The other day in a queue to get in a store I was busily trying to jump between the footprints they’ve painted on the floor and when I got to the line shuffled about so as to make sure I was behind the line. The security guard said if I muck about like that in store I’m out! Haha! I know it sounds childlike but I am actually 40! I just like to try and cheer folk up a bit.

Two things I want to raise – one is the ‘mask wearing exemption cards’ some people seem to have, and secondly the Mental Health Act trap being set up for hard core ‘Antivaxer nut cases’ (Boris Johnson quote). I have read lots of comments about people using “exemption cards”. Sadly, this too is part of the Psyop – lets do a quick thought experiment to make it clear: Firstly, in your mind, exchange your legitimate exemption-card for a Government issued ‘Covid Immunity Passport’ (only obtainable after you have been certified as ‘vaccinated’. Secondly, imagine those friendly members of staff currently on the supermarket door who are at worst just gently suggesting you wear a mask (until you show them your exemption card and get waved past), being replaced by private security thugs or even armed soldiers at the Good-Citizen-Food-Distribution-Facilities (previously known as Supermarkets).

They may seem to make life easier at first glance, but for the sake of convenience many good things have been lost before now.

Johnson said last week that face masks could be gone by November, now they are saying they could be here for a year, my guess is until there is a vaccination. This vaccine must be very important if the powers that be are bringing down World ecomonies left right and centre on the pretext of Covid. My guess is that they have already got one and are just waiting until the sheeple will comply. The problem they have is that if there are side effects and people die no one we will ever have a vaccine again. No one I know would have the jab so I can’t see how this will work.

Lots of talk now on various Alt-Media websites in both the UK and the US about this years annual Flu Jab / Flu Shot will not be the same as the previous years. Apparently, there will be a double-blind (at least – more likely covert) test of the experimental Covid 19 vaccine carried out in parts of the UK. This makes perfect sence – any terrible side effects will be blamed on a bad batch or contamnation of this years Flu vaccine (made in China perhaps being blamed). (Notice also how they have dropped the word ‘vaccine’ and replaced it with ‘shot’ or ‘jab’). There have been a few comments on this website saying very similar things – such as “Flu vaccine will be a Trogan Horse for the Covid vaccine”, and “Boris Johnson wants children and pregnant women to get thier flu jab this year to save the NHS”.… Read more »

RIght. I believe it gets more nefarious the deeper you delve.

I think they will give everyone a saline solution first so everyone is healthy and happy and ” look at that the vaccine works”. We will go back to suffering common colds and flus – a few pneumonia cases, BUT – no covid19!

The caveat being that just to insure a lifetime of good health (and inclusion in society) we will need the vaccination yearly.

I, too, think they already have a vaccine ready and all the reports about racing for the cure is just rubbish.

I heard women talking the other day, not “conspiracy theorists” by any means, and they both said there was no way they were getting the vaccine. One woman said “I don’t want to grow a third leg”.

I think more and more people are becoming aware when it comes to the vaccine. The only reason people will take it is to stop this madness.

At Tesco saw a cashier. No mask then as a college come to replace her she dons a mask to leave. What the hell. Why wear one now after 20mins not wearing one. It’s lunacy.

I think they don’t have to wear them behind the screen at the till but have to wear them on the shopfloor.

In Asda they don’t have to wear them at all, but are practically bullied into wearing them all the time by management.

I just saw a blurb that the Supreme Court had rejected a Nevada church’s appeal of corona virus restrictions.

More to the point of this particular forum, my sister (who works for a big box hardware store) has said repeatedly that not one single cashier or any other person dealing directly with the public in that store has gotten sick, let alone died, from COVID-19. That could change of course; but for now that’s the case.

That view opens a very big can of worms. Specifically, there is evidence out there that biolabs exist around the world and feverishly work at concocting pathogens – primarily viruses. If, however, no virus exists, at least not as a pathogen, then the military industrial complex is spinning a lot of wheels attempting to accomplish the impossible.

38 million gas masks were issued to British families by September 1939. I wonder if this was a psi-op to instill fear in a skeptical and unwilling public. It would have taken a while to manufacture them, which might indicate it had all been planned in advance.

Yes…and the filters contained asbestos…..maybe they tried the population cull in 1939 with the masks however Herr Shickelgrueber lack of chemical weapons may have prevented that

It comes down to two choices: you either allow the usual psychopathic suspects to play their psyop games on us and enslave us or we fight back. Fighting back can take many forms. Here are some choices but feel free to add your list: Not wearing a muzzle Wearing one with written statements such as: worn under duress, covid-1984, muzzled etc. As well as spreading some ketchup or brown sauce on the front of the muzzle etc. with “explanation” to the store manager that you’ve just had a double cheese burger. In Italy, they used to draw blood tears under the eyes on face masks. Here are some for bigger face coverings: Covid – 19 end of our rights and freedoms Welcome to dystopian Britain Covid -19 vehicle for global eugenics Covid – 19 welcome to fascism Say NO to deadly vaccines etc. Aspiring graphic artist out there should get… Read more »

I feel the same. I was going to write things on the mask and wear it but in the end I think the best thing is to just not wear it.

Yes, only write messages on masks if they’re round your sleeve or attached to your bag or whatever, don’t actually wear it that defeats the point!

Refused entry to the Oxfam shop in London Walthamstow as my 4 year old and 6 year old children have eczema and have already had skin peeling off from over zealous hand sanitising teacher. I agreed to wear a mask and sanitise my own hands as children love buying second hand toys. I was told it was government policy to sanitise hands. I told them it wasn’t and in any case it’s government policy to sell bombs to Saudi Arabia causing a humanitarian crisis in Yemen that Oxfam seeks to ameliorate. I was told to leave if I wouldn’t put hand sanitiser on children. Later that day on a train to Liverpool, I was wearing my scarf, train staff asked why my sleeping 4 and 6 year old were not wearing masks. I replied it’s not necessary and not policy. I was told they were capable of transmitting the deadly… Read more »

This is exactly what it ultimately boils down to. Tacitly arming marginalised, low status workers in shops, pubs, cafes etc. with a sense of authority is perhaps the worst symptom of it all. Getting through a day without encountering a card carrying goon in the course of the most basic transactions is a rare thing now, be it passive aggressive facial cues or downright hectoring. As an aside, I’ve noticed sleeve tattoos are the new symbol of rank amongst the ‘degree educated’ barista class who are seizing their chance to execute power plays with aplomb.

On national radio UK Police Commissioner, Dame Cressida Dick said, “Let’s shame shoppers who spurn masks”.

Deliberately inciting violence in a nation should be made a criminal offence. Innocent people always suffer the effects.

People with breathing problems are afraid to go shopping without a mask in case they’re challenged by the new ‘covid police’.

Welcome to 1930s Germany.

You’re right. Nothing will happen.But none of this is about health anyway.

The plan is to repress us so thoroughly, and to make us so miserable that we surrender to indefinite Gatesian/Pharma vaccines, track and trace, social credit compliance and chip implants.

Those idiots screaming ‘just wear the mask’ or ‘stay the f*** home’ are pleading for their own enslavement.

Their stupidity is turning the world into a concentration camp.

This would be the same Cressida Dick(head) who jovially chatted with non-social distancing officers on a Westminster Bridge invaded by hordes of non-social distancing people at a clap for carers Thursday evening a while back. What a scumbag and total hypocrite that damn woman is. A pure Establishment stooge, from the same mould as Keir Starmer.

Cressida Dick might well order police officers to shoot anyone without a mask 12 or 13 times at point blank range.

Just in case he’s a terrorist. You can’t be too safe.

Cressida Dick … the teflon bint that oversaw the murder of Jean Charles de Menezes.
Remember her … remember the fact that she has no morals, she is without conscience and without shame. She is dangerous to the extreme. Let people know who she is and what she has done. she believes she has got away with it. May the order she gave, for plain clothes police to murder an innocent traveller on the London Underground, haunt her for eternity. The public must turn their backs on her …. she can NEVER be trusted.
