Typical jw doublespeak

nowwhat?

The org. Said to follow government guidelines but here in Ohio they are making everyone wear masks for the meetings, despite the fact mask wearing is only mandatory in health care facilities!

My wife follows all my Jehovah's Witness family on Instagram. They posted photos of everyone wearing masks for the Memorial. Even my nephew's small children under five were wearing masks. I would like to know how many decided to watch the Memorial on Zoom?

Strongly encouraged. Otherwise known as nagging. No microphone covers here nor wiping the stand between parts

I don't think there will be any government law forbidding the wearing of masks. So they are not actually going against the law of the land by wearing them at the meetings.

And what about the styles? I have an assortment of those useless masks in quite a few colors and styles. These range from plain, dull colors (or white) to floral, paisley (from the late 1960s, sure to give the hounders a stroke), space themes, and even a few sun worship masks (again, sure to give them a serious stroke). And that's just those styles not deemed "politically offensive" such as masks with protest slogans or swear words on them.

No, none of those masks need to be dry cleaned. None are in official "dress" styles. Sure, some come in plain dull colors or with simple tweed patterns. But they are just part of the assortment I got by going to Amazon. (I expect mask mandates to come back without warning, at any time.) But no, I will not get any mask made out of wool, or that has a silk inner lining, or that requires dry cleaning (they are too hard to take care of, for a useless mask). I want masks that only require putting them in warm or hot water, putting simple washing soda or Borax in the water, letting it sit a few minutes, and sloshing it around and wringing it out to clean them, not to waste time taking them to the cleaners.

And no, I am not wearing these useless masks where not required. They want me to go back to the jokehovians, I will not wear one at the boasting session--and I don't care if this wimpy "disease" comes back. I am more worried about the ultimate Pandemic (Christi-SCAM-ity) which cannot be throttled with a mask. My masks are waiting for the day when they once again become required to shop or work, and will see no wearing until then.
