The worst part about it is that we HAVE disproved mask mandates. After years of them enacted across entire populations, like state wide mandates, we have more than enough examples to show that long term the effect on spread was absolute zero.
Just look at the CDC study this very article links to in order to see how bad the “proof” is on a population level. They cherry pick a specific period of time in a specific place, and compare places with mask mandates to those without. With the timing lined up just right where the places with mandates had just gotten out of a HUGE surge, while the places without were just getting hit with the traveling wave. Pathetic

The systemic racist institutions in this nation are actively killing folks of color
Nonsense.
When will you people realize that the reason people oppose this crap isn’t because they support “systemic racism” or something. It’s because they roll their eyes at such ridiculous claim. Especially when such claims are used to justify outright racism against other races
