Imo, it's about MUTING the very belief/thought from us, that the individual had any voice against RULERS.

Which if you know,
you knew already, WE DON'T.

Because if it was about health of the collective, for the long haul, then the logical thing to do is to make ASTRONAUTS out all of us on our home planet.

Which, might be the outcome.

Let's get a little nutty and think...

If Elites are pushing for Mars colonization. Then maybe this is all conditioning for our biology to adapt to a different type of oxygen level. A respiratory system, trained in a limited manner (like how athletes do altitude training) might be beneficial for when one needs to exist in such an environment where oxygen levels are limited.

Colonies on Mars after all, will always need to exist "masked" when out in the field.

In this planet, I actually like a society masked. With the ever rising surveillance system, I like stepping out looking like a ninja. Deception is also now not just the game of Elites, but now also the strange game of deception we're all playing. Distrust, also the norm when out in the apparent "TOXIC AIR" that became Earth in 2020.
