Dear Reader,
The wearing of a face mask to protect against a respiratory virus is an act of grand deceit. It is a behavior that defies research on the topic. Wearing a face mask, as this article (one of many) points to — is unsafe to do and is ineffective.
Until the narrative around mandatory masking has changed, each day by 6am Eastern, I will both post here and send out a science-based reason why no one should wear a face mask.
I ask that you help me circulate these pieces to those around you who you believe could most benefit from them. It is important not to remain silent on this topic. These are important discussions to be having with friends, family members, business owners, healthcare practitioners, public servants, and others in the community.

It is unclear why there is increased difficulty in society for face to face communication, but anti-social behavior, as traditionally defined, is on the rise. Discomfort in face to face communication among people of all ages is one of many telling signs of this increase in anti-social behavior.
What is clear, is that a face mask reduces social cohesion between those who are masked, doing harm to the masked and unmasked alike.
Masks create difficulty bonding, learning, empathizing, and communicating. These are the trends of society and key features that distinguish a sociopath from a healthy person.
As previously pointed out, Denis Rancourt of the Ontario Civil Liberties Association writes:1
“Covering the lower half of the face reduces the ability to communicate, interpret, and mimic the expressions of those with whom we interact. Positive emotions become less recognizable, and negative emotions are amplified. Emotional mimicry, contagion, and emotionality in general are reduced and (thereby) bonding between teachers and learners, group cohesion, and learning — of which emotions are a major driver.”2
Masking is the exact behavior and produces the exact outcome that should not be wanted by anyone seeking to raise a healthy child. A healthy child is one with both a healthy body and healthy mind.
Will every child who wears a mask become a sociopath? Of course not.
Do we really need to wait 20 years to find out how many do?
All one-size-fits-all health approaches, whether they be voluntary or mandatory must be stopped now — masking being one among many.

The bestselling book "Face Masks In One Lesson" by Allan Stevo describes how to never wear a face mask again. The follow-up to the book, "Face Masks Hurt Kids," describes why to never wear a face mask again. We must defeat the awful, narrative around the mandates.
Examples of how face masks hurt kids will be posted to the Lockdown Land Substack each morning by 6am Eastern until the narrative around this ineffective and harmful medical intervention has shifted. Face masks are, in fact, not just harmful to children. Face masks are harmful to everyone. Thank you so much for helping me circulate this research.
