Today is the 3rd anniversary of mass school closures in most United States as a response to the Wuhan Flu Panic.
This has caused unprecedented and irreparable damage to children and youth in the country that is happening today.

The anime convention industry is still struggling to recover as a whole and the lockdowns have driven people...

Nan Desu Kan in Colorado not dropping their mask mandate when the CDC is recommending a back to normal approach and ignoring medical exceptions is another example of the rot that is happening at anime conventions.
It's has nothing to do with health but about hygiene theater.
"Inclusive" unless you have a legitimate health reason you can't wear a face mask, or if you have athsma or have a developmental disability.
