Some people bring their own masks [1] which work 24/7 in all conditions! For protests, the best form of flattery is to be imitated, so this website [2] and others, lets you pay your respects and flatter the police.

Depending on where you live, wearing a mask (as in: face covering, not the COVID masks) at a public protest or demonstration can be a punishable offense forbidden by law… and I'm not talking about autocratic states but many civilized and relatively liberal Western countries, cf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-mask_law https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-mask_law

  > For example, The Georgia Supreme Court found the law constitutional on the grounds that the wearing of the mask was an act of intimidation and a threat of violence So this is not that.

    Women wear masks ever day with their make up, and also documented with filters on social media. Bet the courts didnt think of masks in that context did they?

    > You’re putting the US (…) I don't see where you would get that from my comment, which didn't name any country. The point was that the wiki article I pointed to does list quite a number of countries, of which several do fall into the group of “liberal Western countries”. Nobody said that _all_ countries listed there do.

  I dont give a flying pig about it. I didnt get taught law, its not something that is a compulsory subject to teach and the adult population certainly doesnt get taught about the upgrades or changes to law, so I cant have a democratic debate over the laws that exist. Ergo we are living in a legal dictatorship that put Mussolini to shame, but as most people dont know who he is, thats a point thats wasted on people. Why is the state hell bent on removing everyone's privacy as well? These anti-mask laws are designed to harm the public, especially when considering the riot police will be balaclava'ed up and in full riot gear. If the scientific community especially at Uni, werent such pussy's there would be psychological paper's that exist demonstrating the provocative nature of the riot gear uniform, using military techniques, because the police and military share many training elements. Representative democracy is a trick to cede autonomy over one's actions, so if you needed a way to control a population en-masse, this would be a disarmingly charming way to achieve this objective, the sort of thing a self attracted sociopath would come up with, and something that continues to attract sociopaths with narcissistic attributes around the world to this day!
