A new mandate at Disney World<\/strong> demands even more intrusive mask obedience, threatening visitors to leave the park if they walk around eating or drinking without a mask on. Disney World has closed a mask loophole, banning park visitors from eating and drinking while they walk as a means to force attendees to wear masks. \u201cFace coverings are required for all Guests (ages 2 and up) and Cast Members,\u201d reads Disney World\u2019s official policy<\/a>. \u201cPlease bring your own face coverings and wear them at all times, except when dining or swimming.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new policy instructs visitors exactly when and where they can eat. Visitors are only allowed to eat or drink if they stop and stand still, while consciously keeping 6 feet away from other people at all times. If they get caught, they are told to leave the park. If the visitor needs to catch his\/her breath, they are sanctioned off to a \u201crelaxation station\u201d where they can take off their mask for a while. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMask rule update. Disney has updated face-covering guidelines to say that guests may only remove masks when ACTIVELY eating and drinking, and must be stationary and physically distanced when doing so,\u201d said writer Brooke McDonald in an Instagram post. \u201cThis means no more munching Mickey pretzels or sipping drinks as you stroll.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Disney is also specifying that guests cannot wear costume masks and that \u201cuse of face coverings is not a substitute for physical distancing.\u201d It won\u2019t be long before wearable sensors are required for entry, alerting individuals when they are too close to one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People who do not believe in living under a mask will be excluded from society and threatened with trespassing, even though forcing something over someone\u2019s face and that of their children\u2019s face is trampling on an individual\u2019s private medical decisions, personal beliefs, and civil liberties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note: There is now a mask enforcement squad<\/strong>. While we\u2019ve only seen designated mask enforcement Cast Members at EPCOT so far, we expect similar protocols to follow at the Magic Kingdom, Disney\u2019s Hollywood Studios, Disney\u2019s Animal Kingdom, and Disney Springs as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In general, these rules will be modified across the board to close any loopholes that people have found. Also, forcing mask compliance at events and grocery stores adopting these same measures. You already see places using guards at the door or \u201chealth ambassadors\u201d as Wal-Mart is doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, who is being conditioned and controlled? Disney is looking like the most unhappy place to be where dreams are squashed with authoritarian values.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
