its probably part of a pipeline to make a reliably isolated and scared voting base that will always vote to give big brother more power because they don’t know how to socialize so they are more susceptible to propaganda

No.
1. You're describing a deliberate conspiracy, but providing zero evidence for it. It's not enough to show that the policy will lead to the results you allege (which I do not grant you), but that the policy was deliberately chosen for that reason and not another.
2. From what I've read, the actual result of masking and COVID has been increased behavior problems and acting out in students, not increased compliance.
I still wear a mask today - specifically when I am going to encounter a lot of people at once (like ordering food at a cafeteria), interacting with someone who through their job has to come face to face with hundreds of people a day (like a barista), or just passing through a shared area (like walking from the cafeteria to my desk with my food). Other than that I take the mask off if I am sitting relatively by myself.
I am still waiting to feel this fear that the right wing media has hammered into people's heads as a legitimate talking point. I think there are at least two comments here already citing this fear. I don't feel afraid when I have the mask on or when my mask is off and wearing a mask does not change any of my other behavior.
What was scary was in 2020 when I went to the ER with COVID. That was actually scary.
