Roger Scruton, the great British defender of traditionalism and classical beauty, died just as our great new era of ‘health’ was commencing, at the beginning of 2020.
Wow! This is so insightful and another validation for my abhorrence of the mask from the very beginning... I am in California and seeing pictures of our governor and “elites” at dinner parties unmasked, while the servers are all masked made me think the purpose was to create a slave class of people.
Quite disheartening that the shops are still fully masked still in the UK. It’s not like they were ever full of smiles and laughter but I had hoped..
Unmasked toddlers seem much livelier and mesmerising than before. If only there were more of them, the gloominess of the masked might be clearer to see.
Thanks so much for pointing us to the book The Face of God - I've got a copy on order! Our congregation has been relaxed about masks - until now. Now we have to obey the mask mandate - which will make Sunday interesting for me. Will they kick me out? Tolerate my face? Who knows. I think God will be OK with my uncovered face - not sure about his children though.
Nice philosophical analysis, but it seems sufficient to say they don't work. But philosophers don't worry about efficiency. The same arguments, practical and philosophical, can be made about motorcycle helmets. People involved in motorcycle mishaps usually emerge with internal injuries and helmets relatively unscathed. They don't work, but nanny governments impose them anyway, because they can, and probably gives them false hopes they're doing something useful. Helmets and masks are superstitious nonsense imposed to demonstrate blind obedience, and to accept punishment for being in a lesser class.
Another fantastically written and insightful article exploring the psychology behind this agenda. What I would describe as a 'proper' journalist, rare indeed in these strange times. Thanks Chris and keep up the good work.

that is brilliant - just what I have been struggling to articulate. Thank you
The amount of friends and family who think its okay to mask and vaccinate children is just disheartening and depressing.
This is sad news indeed but I think he is lucky to have passed on without witnessing the full extent of what is happening worldwide.
The following is my poem about the brutalisation of world civilisation:
EUTHANISATION:
written by Jocelyn Scott
January 2022
I’ve made an evaluation
After much consideration
And a lot of deliberation
That this is not a vaccination
It’s simply euthanisation
Under the guise of inoculation.
So use your imagination
And you’ll come to the realisation
It’s about depopulation.
It’s a shocking situation
With no logical explanation
And a total abomination
With the use of illegal mandation
Which is loaded with discrimination
And a dreadful aggravation
To the general population
Causing heaps of confrontation.
Now we’re facing bastardisation
In camps of concentration
With the threat of domination
Without any justification.
And there’s been no consultation
And no logical explanation
About the terrible determination
To force any future generation
Into possible sterilisation
And robotic dehumanisation
Causing DNA transformation
With absolutely no rationalisation.
And I’ve come to the realisation
That we’ll receive no compensation
No conciliation or justification
And no satisfactory explanation
For this complete vilification
As they go about the annihilation
Of the world wide population.
So I have no hesitation
Because of this horrible situation
In wishing these murdering bastards to hell and damnation
Without any consideration
And no chance of graduation
To a higher elevation.

Masks are there to shut us up and keep us compliant. We know that, and THEY know that. Great essay, agree with every word.
This is an excellent commentary: profound and enlightening. I was struck to my core. Thank you.

Ha ha I am accused of being obsessed with masks too!
