Mask Madness

Just think of the poets here, planning your death?

If you have no booster,

They want you dead as a rooster!

Tis no secret, read it in their comments....

So best keep your health to yourself!.

Lest the Nazi poets, see to it word spreads about you.

Your best friends, you thought so loving?

Want you dead, in a grave, like a Jew,smothering.

Well, I'm a real target for any 'Nazis' who might be part of Poetry Soup... So far, over four-plus years, I've seen one, but he's long gone... ~ Nazi-Hunter

Come on Pangie, you know well evidence is the only way to stop death threats, do as Mark says screen shot and post them, or put them in photos with your poems, I certainly don’t want to see you dead, your poems can be entertaining, but your Nazi and Manson family terms are used too liberally on the soup, and will be met with equally harsh responses, I’ve no doubt there are closet Nazis about, always have always will be, just not the way you want us to believe, cheers David

Hi David. He’s not the only one. There are several well loved poets who express jail or death to any poet with no mask or Pfizer. I don’t read them anymore. The rebirth of Nazis is here at the soup. You choose as you see fit. The threat was clear as a bell. There is evil under the sun. PS believes in freedom of expression,David. My life was not threatened. PAngie

Your poem reflects the anger and the angst many of us are experiencing through this weaponized pandemic. I agree, it has neighbor against neighbor, families against families~it is destroying our kinships and dividing people. And yes, I too feel like we are mirroring 1942. Blessings, Paulette

Mask wearing, especially outdoors, is just virtue signalling.

Boris Johnson today lifted all Covid mandates in Britain -- he followed the science, and came to the conclusion that most masks being used do not significantly stop virus spread, and Covid has now mutated to a virus of lesser severity, similar to that of a seasonal flu, telling everyone to try and get back to lifestyles enjoyed prior to pandemic. Period. USA wake up. The mandates and fear mongering in our Nation is about stuffing ballot boxes in next election, so results can be manipulated. There is no Voter Suppression in the USA...what there is is Truth Suppression. Don't be fools!

I'm not sure on Boris.. Maybe he got railroaded early 2020? 1st He wanted all to catch it and he would have been well breifed.' By someone on more than $10 an hour.) But then up pops the neil Ferguson clown 3 x wrong already quoting 500,000 deaths in Britian alone (PANIC ENSUES) or was Boris just bending in The wind to save his skin? Giving lip service to all but never Going to give it 'his all.'

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7680614/ Wearing facemasks has been demonstrated to have substantial adverse physiological and psychological effects. These include hypoxia, hypercapnia, shortness of breath, increased acidity and toxicity, activation of fear and stress response, rise in stress hormones, immunosuppression, fatigue, headaches, decline in cognitive performance, predisposition for viral and infectious illnesses, chronic stress, anxiety and depression. Long-term consequences of wearing facemask can cause health deterioration, developing and progression of chronic diseases and premature death. Governments, policy makers and health organizations should utilize and prosper a scientific evidence-based approach with respect to wearing facemasks, when considering as preventive intervention for public health.
