The entire mask situation was so entirely fucked from the get go. It should never have been politicized and it should have never been made criminal.
If from the beginning the message was “hey, here is a dead simple thing you can do that might help out” this would be an entirely different situation. Instead the laws, shaming, and experts talking down to everyone while also reversing course daily and undermining themselves as experts has created this clusterfuck.
“Masks might help, give them a try” was all anybody had to say.
Plus not lying about masks early on.
What does being wrong 3 months ago matter about today?
Not wrong.
They lied to the country.
If you want to the dial-down moral culpability a notch, they propagandized you for one end in March , then in service of a different goal in May. You may choose to accept that graciously and earnestly if you wish.

This. These asshole experts said not to wear one unless it was an n95 for months. Then they have the balls to start wearing them in press conferences and instruct everyone else to. Fuck that.
Even further back from that. Fauci (I think) told people not to wear any masks, that it wouldn't help. The underlying reason was rationing masks for healthcare workers, but that's not what they said. Bullshit.
People like Fauci are why I don’t take any of this seriously. Nobody has known what they are talking about and they still say to trust science.
They have said all sorts of different shit and they had no problem with the protests.
I'd like to point out that this isn't a far right position. Roadie is in the middle of the roadie. But he has a brain and isn't afraid to use it
no. it's not.
Y'all are in the minority and this is why Trump's numbers, specifically with older voters, have completely tanked since February. There are other reasons, but being proudly against public safety is a big one.
Oh please. Your interpretation of what"public safety", polling numbers and Trump is ridiculous. Trump was the only one doing anything. The dem party wanted to leave the borders open and continue with flights to and from China. Then their governors brilliantly stuck the sick back in assisted living homes so the most vulnerable could die. I would play that idiot biden's press conference over and over during the election. The one where he called Trump racist for shutting down flight to and from China. Classic rat leadership.
Masks are a joke. I owned a chemical manufacturing company for years. The masks I see people wearing are worthless and would never fly in a plant with airborne solids or VOC's. The gaps around the chin, cheeks and nose are visible from 10 feet. Anything can get in or out. The "designer" masks made of simple woven cotton that you see so many wearing are worthless as a filter. Any mask that is worth its weight can only safely be worn in short stints and costs about 10 times as much as the shit you see people donning. Fauci has vacillated on the wearing of masks. He is right to because he knows the shit people are wearing out there, especially the designer masks with logo's and pictures on them, are a false sense of security.
I always laugh when I see a driver alone in their car wearing a mask. Jeezus some people are unreal.
