Why did it seem like everyone LOVED face masks?
Now that masks are off and we see unambiguously that most people hated them, why did it seem as if most people loved them?
Here are two Moment videos that get at this…
1/ Why face masks create the illusion that the average bloke supports them.
2/ How the psychology of face masks asymmetrically pushes people to wear them. (And why masks are not, strictly speaking, virtue signals.)
In Japan, 99.9% of people are still wearing them and not just Japanese but non-Japanese too. The propaganda to wear them is relentless. I find it oppressive. Looking forward to reading Ian Miller's book. Thanks for the tip.
According to a news report,, there has been 7,060 unruly passenger incidents on planes since Jan 2021 and %70 of those were over masking.
This notion of masking being popular is an illusion the Authoritarians are pushing.
