Can you actually be forced to wear a mask in the building indefinitely?

[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4830069, member: 63706"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.npr.org/2021/04/05/984440891/justice-clarence-thomas-takes-aims-at-tech-and-its-power-to-cut-off-speech[/URL] This is what gets me, the government knows it can't do these things, so they are having businesses do it. To me, that is acting under the color of law. Justice Thomas just wrote a concurrence about government forcing big tech companies to violate first amendment rights, making the company act as part of government enforcement, meaning the first amendment violation is unconstitutional. Now, if this same logic were to apply to companies, particularly ones that act as public accomodations, being forced by the government to enforce unlawful lock downs and other mandates, it seems Thomas may have drawn out a road map by which we might start pushing back against unconstitutional executive action.
