…despite MoCo lifting it:

| Do you think they realize how foolish they look or do they think they are the only ones being superior? |
| Yes, they get to do that. They're an incorporated municipality. If you don't like it, then don't do things indoors in the City of Takoma Park where the mask requirement applies. If you're a City of Takoma Park resident, contact your city councilmembers. |
Why do you care what Takoma Park does about a mask mandate? How does this affect you? |
| Ah, People's Republic of Takoma Park. Never change. |
|
Well, they are exercising thei freedoms.
Maybe I should start shopping there instead of up county. |
| I went out to dinner in Takoma Park last week. Every sitting around a crowded bar unmasked talking and laughing while the servant class has to wear masks. Then we half ass put ours back on to walk out of the restaurant a couple hours later. |
| Awesome. Good for them. |
What is wrong with you? |
Just describing how the mask mandate in Takoma Park works in practicality. It's 100 percent anti-science and a complete joke. The worst part is the rich patrons not wearing a mask while their servers have to. This will be the world going forward. |
This is the real purpose of the mask mandates. A stratified society where the customers can do what they want yet they can force the servants to mask. No better place to see it lived out than Takoma Park. |
+1 At this stage, mask mandates are a way for powerful people to force less powerful people to do something uncomfortable and unnecessary just so they can feel less anxious. We are seeing the same with proposed vaccine mandates for small kids. A bunch of rich white people with health anxiety are looking to control everyone around them because it makes them feel better, and if you point out that the science doesn’t really support these provisions, they will call you a Trumper. It’s a crap system! |
It sounds a$$hokey but they are not wrong. |
It would be more persuasive as a point if the example wasn't a bar/restaurant where you have to take off your masks to eat, and presumably the people working there want customers to do just that. Are customers in regular stores in TP foregoing masks while the employees have to wear them? That's not my experience; from what I see everyone still has them plastered on nice and tight, lol. Does anyone know if the employees, business owners and citizens are for or against the continuation of the mandate and why or why not? Or are people just making assumptions? |
Completely and totally agree. I was at a high-end hotel in Utah last week, where the indoor mask mandate has been lifted. All of the guests at the indoor dinner (myself included) were maskless, partying and carrying on like it was 2018. The wait staff, servers, etc. were all masked. For anyone who stopped to think about it, it was a horrible image. The serfs and the lords. Terrible and so, so stupid. What purpose could this possibly be serving? |
