The Consistent Inconsistencies Of The Vaccination Discussion

From new indoor mask mandates to actions like those taken in Australia, to the latest CDC "Maskerade," we are seeing the return of the obsessive-compulsive behavior of the empowered professional caring class.

The article, titled "Four Reasons Why I'm Wearing a Mask Again," was standard playbook narcissism, couched in the language of caring for the community, at its most typical.

The vaccinated author re-donned her mask because no vaccine is perfect; because the research into whether the vaccinated can somehow still spread the virus is in its infancy; and she doesn't want to get COVID. It should be noted that, unless COVID magically disappears from the face of the Earth, these arguments in favor of mask wearing will remain absolutely valid for an eternity, meaning that the author should be open to wearing a mask until the day she dies - almost certainly from something else.

That's because, for her fourth argument, the author states that wearing a mask "Doesn't feel like a huge cost to me."

While fear, isolation, financial uncertainty, and myriad other factors have played a role in that decline, wearing masks has also contributed a surprising amount.

We unconsciously dehumanize others, leading us to consider others as less than human - hence the current predicament.

Wearing masks in an actual emergency - last spring and summer, for example - does not, conversely, create such problems as the brain is able to internally justify the situation and, most importantly, knows that at some point the masks will come off and the normal visual cues and signals will resume.
