Cycle 2, day 1 Off:
First time I go to the grocery since the mask is mandatory. That is against my principles to wear a mask. IMHO, there is no convincing evidence that wearing a mask is helpful to anything beside what is pushed on MSMs. I don't see using a mask as healthy as it makes you breath back your CO2 and more likely than not, the mask will get contaminated by bacterias and mushrooms and all sort of nasty things.
I stand for the freedom of choice. If you want to wear mask, wear one. I don't to wear one and I would like to be left alone with my decision. It appears like half of the society agrees with this and the other half don't.
Bottomline, there is a loophole in the law. Because we have laws protecting against discrimination and protecting the private life, all you need to do to derogate the obligation is to declare that you have a medical condition stopping you from wearing a mask.
Evoking the medical condition is extremely subjective and I'm in peace using it due to my beliefs on the topic. Worse case scenario, my medical condition is as real the public health threat justifying those extreme measures. That being said, going to the grocery and actually defending my right was to say the least thrilling because:
1. MSMs keep hammering on the population fears and depict people not wearing mask as criminals.
2. You need to argue your case with uninformed staff
3. You are facing the social pressure
and so on....
but I did it nonetheless and I didn't bring any mask with me because I was determined to succeed. Failure wasn't an option. I have found that the key was to communicate with respect. I see myself as playing a role to educate people that I meet. You need to stay friendly with people or else, they will resist to what you want to tell them.
I had to go to a second grocery because my request has been declined at the first one. Not because the staff wasn't open to my plea but simply because they didn't have the authority to make the decision but they promised me that they would read the text of the law and discuss the issue with the direction and that possibly it would be easier for them to comply with my request at my next visit.
At the end of the day, I can say mission accomplished and by having stood for my rights and insisted to have it my way has been a success against my fears on many levels. and it feels good for my self-esteem for having done so. To have the courage to do what I was feeling the right thing to do.
When I decided to go with OF as my next program 2 weeks ago... I kinda forecasted that the civil rights and liberty status would become worst before improving and the source of the government power over the population with this is fear. Fear is induced in the head of all the good people listening to the MSMs.
I have the belief that I always make excellent decisions for important matters. Choosing doing OF now was one of those decisions. There is no better time in human history for vanquishing the collective fears...
