[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t decide what is most bizarre about this thread. That anyone in 2023 is saying anti-mask like it’s a slur is hilarious - look around at almost everyone now. No one wants to wear them let alone require them on children now. And can there be a thread about APS without someone going down some weird conspiracy theory of some influence of Koch please? I find it bizarre and ironic as a supporter of public school policies traditionally held by the left that there is a constant desire by posters to give the GOP the issues of higher teacher pay and smaller class sizes, closing opportunity gaps etc that I am seeing on Arlington Parents’ website and twitter. These don’t seem like scary and conspiratorial concepts. You are giving away the platform of public schools to the right.[/quote]

:roll:

[b]They were aggressively anti-mask way back when. And they were anti-teacher, anti-school,[/b] etc. Someone who helped a lot with her first campaign behaved very poorly at a SB meeting.

Just an odd group of miscreants for a potential school board member to side with. [/quote]

So I now can guess pretty accurately who you are based on your rabid AEM postings. :)

I was a member of the APE FB group. I was never anti-mask and there wasn't a push for that in the FB group or by the members. Was there a handful of people who might of been - probably - but overall that just wasn't the issue at hand. It was school reopening. And if masks were a part of that, it was ok.  And no one needs to believe me because if you really want to know, request to join the group and read through the posts.

I think people like you who continue to push the whole masking thing are behind the curve.
 
People have moved on and don't really care or have anymore need to use a mask to display there particular political party.  The year started off with AEM and even posts on this board about how terrible no masks was going to be and the covid explosion sure to come.  It never happened and largely people have accepted it's not going to AND in hindsight, yes, many have probably come to realize they did have some overblown ideas about school spread, etc. Especially as more and more studies and data from legit sources seem to indicate. Now we know better so in the future, they can draw from the lessons learned.
