In authoritarian surveillance state China, it's illegal to wear face masks for health reasons.

Also, what happens to Muslim women who choose to wear face coverings? Is there a religious exemption?

someone here on hexbear predicted this like two years ago. "eventually they will ban masks"

So I can kill riot cops for covering their faces, right?

So I can kill riot cops for covering their faces… right?

The NYPD has its own intelligence agency, has headquarters all over the world, its own submarine, and over a billion in funding

If you can’t stop crime with all those resources, then you’re just pathetic. Being unable to reduce crime “because of masks” despite all those resources just makes you look even more pathetic. But then I keep forgetting that making yourself look pathetic is often times a great narrative. Like how the CIA and FBI fumbled 9/11, or how the Israelis fumbled 7/11, or how the US “didn’t help enough in Rwandan.” The bleeding hearts get to feel justified in supporting more oppression, and the conservatives are there to seal the deal and ‘convince’ any hold outs.

Its not that shocking. After all New York had Pataki as state governor and Guilliani as mayor in NYC in the mid 90s to early 00s with . Bloomberg later, who was initially a Republican, but then became "independent". Adams himself was a registered Republican for most of his life. There's also the IDC Dems, who often vote with Republicans and torpedo progressive legislation.

This is what you get when Biden comes out as anti-mask like five months after being elected then immediately tries Trump's plan of "let's spread it on purpose to kill off the disabled and deny the pandemic to kill off the social safety net". Now everyone's at increasing risk for long covid. ArE YoU BeTtEr oFf tHaN YoU WeRe fOuR YeArS AgO?

So when do it and form human walls to prevent their crimes against decent people protesting a genocide from being recorded......

Critical support to Comrade H5N1

Who do they think will serve them their treats when the poors are all dead?

I’m frankly not that surprised. The city and especially the surrounding areas in LI have always had some of the most conservative and fascist populations in the country. There’s something uniquely dangerous about the thin blue line Italian American crowd.

Gotta say though I’m not sure if this covers surgical masks but more ski masks, which are also not uncommon to see.

Okay, Adams: get in. Take that politico wretch that started this whole discourse with you. Every cop-loving politician in New York deserves to burn in the bull. Shit, the cops too! We can call the Brazen their mother as we load 'em in.

Once a cop, always a bastard.

this shit is going to mainstream. it will be bipartisan. laws will be passed.

Covid will then re-surge because of course it will, more long Covid to be ignored

then H1N1 is going to hit with full force because fuck us
