Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner daughter advocates to the UN that mask mandates need to continue

The teen daughter of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner advocated for mask use to continue to curb COVID more than five years after the pandemic began.

Violet Affleck addressed the United Nations to speak on her belief that it’s important to keep using masks in public to help prevent the spread of COVID.

Watch:

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.”

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes,” she said to the gathered audience while wearing an N95 mask.

“For adults, the relentless beat of ‘back to normal,’ ignoring, downplaying and concealing both the prevalence of airborne transmission and the threat of long COVID. manifested in a series of choices,” she continued. “Young people lacked both real choice in the matter and information about what was being chosen for us.”

“It is neglect of the highest order to look children in the eyes and say, ‘We knew how to protect you, and we didn’t do it,’” she added later.

The 19-year-old continues to wear a mask and even made headlines last year for demanding medical facilities reinstate mask mandates.

“We can recognize filtered air as a human right as intuitively as we do filtered water,” Affleck said. “We can create clean air infrastructure that is so ubiquitous and so obviously necessary, tomorrow’s children don’t even know why we need it.”

Not all X users were on the young woman’s side, however:

Good. The fucking crazies keep in the fore-front of our minds the rape of civilization that occured between 2020 and 2024, and precisely who was responsible.

The politicians, media personalities, and government-funded pencil-pushers who call themselves ‘scientists’ commited… https://t.co/T0gq6dSWlm

“Good. The f**king crazies keep in the forefront of our minds the rape of civilization that occurred between 2020 and 2024, and precisely who was responsible. The politicians, media personalities, and government-funded pencil-pushers who call themselves ‘scientists’ committed grievous crimes against billions of people and still need to be brought to justice,” one said, sharing video of Affleck’s speech.

This is absolutely as unscientific as anything RFK Jr. has done. Why the hell is Ben Affleck’s daughter speaking before the UN to begin with? https://t.co/4UsczdEY6N
