I was walking on one of those crowded shopping roads yesterday.
A child and mother were walking without masks on. They passed a family wearing masks.
The mother wearing the mask shouted “Aw, look they don’t have masks how dirty, run away!”
Her son said “Oh no! ” – covered his face and started wiping him self off. “Come-on dad!” The father sulked behind them unconcerned as they sprinted away, peeking back a few times, at the mother and son not wearing masks.
I know that the government is trying to persuade people not to wear masks outside anymore.. but it is going to be an uphill battle 😂 Will MOJ suggest no masks in schools?

They’ll keep using masks anyway forever because they do it to hide their ugly face, not because ot COVID.
I was walking to the station today with my mask pulled down because there’s almost nobody on the sidewalk I take to get there, (I put my mask on properly when I approach the station and it’s more crowded and obviously in the station and train)
Some guy walked past me and muttered something as he passed me. I had an earphone in and he muttered it so I honestly have no idea what he said but I turned around and looked at him and he walked a few more meters and then also turned around and stared at me so I know he was muttering something at me. Could have been about my not wearing my mask properly (he was wearing a mask) that’s like the third time in a week somebody has made some comment as they walked past me. Wish they had the balls to say it directly to me instead of muttering and turning around to check I’m not chasing after them or something as they briskly walk away.
I was walking in a straight line and not even using my phone so I don’t know what else he could have been pissed about
The short answer is…
No, they will not as some kids have a reduced immune system, and the masks have been an unfounded god-send for their parents to make everyone suffer under the pretense that their genetically weak offspring may catch a cold, and it’s everyone’s fault that they were born weak.
Collectively sharing the burden of the vulnerable is now the *modus operandi* of MEXT.
MEXT is essentially a useless piece of shit. (And has always been a useless piece of shit)
PTA meetings are also a useless piece of shit.
Masks are also a way for women to skimp on the makeup, so most women who don’t look good *au natural* will be in favor of wearing masks.
Before cobido, uglies could get away with wearing the mask 1-2 times a week, claim allergies, or colds. Now, they just wear it all the time without putting any effort into their looks, and claim cobido cooties.

Really? I was under the impression that they were saying that they were advising that it was no longer suggested to wear a mask outdoors to prevent COVID transmission, but, in no way were they trying to persuade people not to wear masks.
In fact I doubt they could. It is, after all, mask season pre-COVID. People wore masks all the time because of contagious respiratory illnesses before and they will continue to wear them after.
This is exactly the type of post that I expect to see on r/thathappened
Yeah, that didn’t happen
Can you write what they said in Japanese?
Because that English translation just makes that scene look unbelievable and ridiculous.
Mask is here to stay.
It will never go away.
It will be 2050 and most people will still be wearing masks.
The government isn’t trying to persuade people not to wear masks outside. They’re just saying it’s not “mandatory” (read, strongly suggested) anymore.
There’s still literally hundreds of people dying weekly of COVID. No one is fighting any battle to get rid of masks.
Good. Tired of these dirty children running around without them.
>I know that the government is trying to persuade people not to wear masks outside anymore..
They aren’t suggesting anything of that sort.
They did suggest that people should wear masks before, now they don’t suggest anything at all outside/not crowded places.
I’m seeing people start to drop the mask on the trains. These aren’t western foreigners. Some at least are certainly Japanese. We’re talking like 3 people in a single train car. Nobody said anything, but there were some stares I think.
I don’t know how the masking thing goes. I think it will probably take a clear government announcement or a series of public announcements whenever the time comes to advise the masses not to wear masks.
I don’t see what the problem with wearing masks is
Once the japanese government has assured the population that no one will ever get covid again, we can take them off.
So we’ll just keep them on, keep checking temperature, keep alcohol wiping our hands and surfaces, and keep putting plastic barriers everywhere two people might come face to face with each other.
I mean, how much longer could it be until there’s no covid anymore?
Hadn’t seen one of these this week.
“Will MOJ suggest no masks in schools?” I hope not. I have 3 students out this week with COVID; they were exposed in club, which is maskless.
2 students out last week who were exposed during afterschool program unmasked playtime.
And some people have severe allergies. The masks help them.
1. A small portion of you think “that did not happen”. Yes it 100% in reality did, and it is a form of bullying. I am against bullying if it about masks or whatever. It was shocking and that is why I posted it. If it was something we all saw everyday, wtf would anyone post it. IF I had a video you would probably say that was fake too.. it is how some people make self re-enforced reality reflection bubbles. “Does not agree with my world view, must be fake…”
2. The government is trying to make Japan = EU or = USA in openness. That is why they removed many border restrictions and have often suggested mask wearing is no longer needed outdoors. This is because it is good for the economy; travel, eat, visit Japan, get your 4th shot (we will give you travel vouchers if you do).
3. Should you wear a mask or not? Should kids?? Listen to the experts. They say “No need to wear masks outside”. Check out this 30 second government video [https://nettv.gov-online.go.jp/prg/prg24635.html](https://nettv.gov-online.go.jp/prg/prg24635.html) . This is a real video – it is not fake… it is trying to convince Japanese people to no longer wear masks outdoors — please use this data and evaluate your worldview.

Poor effort, this post. At least make the dialogue or situation vaguely believable.

I stopped wearing a mask outside when not in crowds earlier in the year. Not once has anyone said anything or reacted in a way I noticed.
/r/thathappened
WTF at some of the comments here. I wear a mask outside sometimes because it’s annoying taking it off and on again when entering and exiting buildings. Not because I’m a brainless sheep or I’m hiding my ugly face. What projection
