(15,601 posts)A clearer headline might read woman arrested on camera after assaulting store employee who asked her to wear a mask.

(7,281 posts)exactly how I read it too.
Also, I didn't see any physical assault. I wonder if that was cut out of the video?

Although her whiny rant was probably just too much for them to have to listen to anymore

(31,997 posts)It will get the store sued. Employees are not trained for that. Employees are advised not to get into confrontations with customers. They need to call security or the police.

She seems not at all nuts, however. Not at all. Quite sane, actually.

(24,284 posts)a while ago. Couldn't remember exactly when. I wonder what happened to her after being arrested. Guilty plea? Charges dropped? Awaiting trial?

Maybe she is upset because Mr Bell does?
There is so much going on there that it would take weeks for a psychiatrist to analyze what is really happening here.

(31,997 posts)Not wearing a mask is not a law. It was a store policy. She was arrested for assaulting an employee.

(2,496 posts)Examples of mass psychogenic illness:
A possible outbreak of mass psychogenic illness occurred at Le Roy Junior-Senior High School in upstate New York, US, in which multiple students began suffering symptoms similar to Tourette syndrome. Various health professionals ruled out such factors as Gardasil, drinking water contamination, illegal drugs, carbon monoxide poisoning and various other potential environmental or infectious causes, before diagnosing the students with a conversion disorder and mass psychogenic illness.
After the rise of a popular break through YouTube channel in 2019 where the presenter exhibits extensive Tourettes like behaviour, there was a sharp rise in young people referred to clinics specialising in Tics, thought to be related to social contagion spread via the internet, and also to stress from Eco-anxiety and the Covid pandemic. The authors of a August 2021 report found evidence that social media was primary vector for transmission, saying this is the first recorded instance of "mass social media-induced illness" (MSMI).
I think we have abundant evidence of "mass social media-induced illness well before 2019, ie the MAGA rallies and rise in hate crimes before and following the election of FTG.

Might I add - this woman is NUTS
