I have strongly held religious beliefs that compel me to wear a mask whenever the fuck I want.
Yeah… but their religion says that yours doesn’t count and only their beliefs matter.
This is even more concerning when you look at some of the motivations: “The bill was largely spurred by recent protests on university and college campuses across the country, including North Carolina-based schools, against the war in Gaza.”
this is about control, fascism. historically student protests are the canary in the coal mine on a number of issues. powers that be are looking to stamp out any dissent going forward.
It’s about all of that, but they absolutely could have put in an exemption for medical needs and chose not to. The anti-mask virtue signaling to their plague-ridden base is a bonus.
There is def throwing out meat for the rabid base. Feel like North Carolina is looking to hook up with TX and FL. University of North Carolina to divert $2.3m DEI budget to safety and policing “Some members of the board of trustees, which voted for the divestment, cited students’ recent anti-war demonstrations as a reason for the redesignation of funds to the campus police.”
What a stupid fucking rule, guess immunocompromised people are just supposed to die?
In the article it says that immunocompromised people spoke during the public comments on the bill and Republican senators said that the bill would criminalize their wearing masks but they just won’t be prosecuted for it.
So the law would demand it, but the “trust me bro, I got yo back” defense says to ignore what the law actually says?
Okay, I think I will.:-P
So instead of just having cancer, you’ll have cancer and be a criminal.
What about as a political statement? Isn’t that still protected speech? You republicans made masking/not masking a political act, don’t blame me.
Someone should try wearing a “Trump 2024” mask and see what happens
