My Journey Through Mask Insanity

by James Delingpole The point of face masks is not to protect humans, but to diminish humanity – to rob people of their ego, their identity, and their autonomy. Masks are worn by disposable horror movie villains and ignorable background dancers; they make people less-than-human. If you haven't read it already, I commend to you an excellent piece in The Critic by Patrick Fagan, from which the above quotation is taken. It's titled "Face masks make you stupid". This of course is true and is one of the many reasons why I consider it my duty both as a free spirit and a responsible human being to avoid wearing a face muzzle wherever reasonably possible. On the rare occasions I do wear one, I feel like one of the conquered, enslaved victims when Conan the Barbarian is asked what is best in life. He replies: "To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women."

This is waste/corruption on a cosmic scale." ...Dr David Strain, Clinical Senior Lecturer at the University of Exeter and chairman of the BMA's medical academic staff committee, said the mass testing strategy is "fundamentally flawed"."The Prime Minister's suggestion that this will be as simple as 'getting a pregnancy test' that will give results within 15 minutes is unlikely, if not impossible, in the ...
