[quote=Anonymous][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]

They were aggressively anti-mask way back when. And they were anti-teacher, anti-school, 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]

The thing is, we can see in hindsight that they were correct in many ways. After vaccines were available to all adults there really wasn't any reason to wear masks or not go 5 days/week in person. I realize that masks were a political signifier in many ways, but there really was no scientific reason to bother with them at all in the 21-22 school year. [/quote]

There was with questionable vaccination rates and winter surge.

They weren’t just opposed to masks. They were aggressively anti-maskers. Before it was time to let them go. [/quote]
