"It's just a piece of cloth" and "I am saving lives". What is supposed to mean "I am very brave, smart and heroic"

A thread about a "piece of cloth" as a sign of a massive brainwash. It's aimed at those who know "a piece of cloth" don't stop infection, but wear it to conform.
It's me and you can see I am very happy. This is because I was admitted to the Young Pioneers.

The piece of cloth is a Pioneer's Red Necktie and it's a status symbol (brave, smart, heroic). It probably also stops viruses (well, to the same extent as the cloth masks do). Image
I was admitted in the first batch, among the best pupils. Less dedicated would have their ceremony a few weeks later, weak and naughty -- a year later.

There were weirdos who would refuse The Red Tie. They refused to follow Communist Party teaching!
They were shamed and ostracised and called names. I took part in this, I bullied Sveta, that religious girl in my class who tried to explain to us what was done to the church in the name of the Red Tie teaching.
Few years later cracks started to appear in Soviet propaganda. A literary magazine published "The Bison: A Novel about the Scientist who Defied Stalin", newspapers published Vavilov's life story

I took off my Red Tie and decided I will be a geneticist.
Soon I realised the magnitude of lie we were living and the murderous nature of the regime.
Did it bother me to realise I was willingly a cog in the Murderous Red Machine? Not at all, I'd say it did not because I was unaware.

It's very different when you are aware of what's happening. That experience of awakening gave me immunity to state propaganda and a spine to resist "Red Tie for smart and heroic ones or else".
If you know masks are BS, but think "it's just a Red Tie" then read the next tweet.
It's not just a piece of cloth. It's part of state-sponsored propaganda. If you know as much, resist. You and your children are entitled to an exemption. If you don't do it we might end up in a society where Sveta was when she refused the Red Tie.

Fauci's emails stating the obvious (masks in the community are useless) energised mask zealots. They go around and post this paper in comments, claiming "science evolved and masks now work".

This paper is dodgy, here is why:
1/
pnas.org/content/118/4/…
People who wrote it knew that CDC and its European equivalent found no solid evidence to support the usefulness of cloth masks.
CDC: "We found no significant reduction in influenza transmission with the use of face masks"
wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26…
ECDC:
ecdc.europa.eu/sites/default/…
2/ Image
yet PNAS paper: "we recommend the adoption of public cloth mask wearing, ... in conjunction with existing hygiene, distancing, and contact tracing strategies".

That's problem #1: claim masks work while not able to show they do a thing as a measure in its own right
