They like the anonymity when burning and looting businesses

Masks are the virtue signaler's China virus awareness ribbons.

It’s the easiest form of virtue signaling.

Bingo, it’s the easiest way to virtue signal these days and show why the Orange Man is bad.

I think the media portrayal of it is misleading.

None of my liberal af friends give half a shite about masks.

Because Trump is president and he doesn't like them.

Have you seen the Left? I fully support them wearing masks. Burkas would be appropriate in many cases.

Because they are a fearful people. Masks have allowed them to outwardly show their fear. They have turned fear into a virtue, and the more fearful they are the more virtuous they are.

Masks are a physical manifestation of virtue. They're a tangible object that they can use to label a person's entire existence. Those wearing masks are beautiful souls, those not wearing should die.

And note the conspicuous lack of similar sky screaming about hand washing and disinfecting. See, you can't immediately look upon a person physically and judge them and doxx them based on hand washing habits....you simply can't tell. Hence their up and declaring that surface spread suddenly isn't an issue any longer. Oh but that mask stuff, still in business with that.

THIS. And it goes way back. I read a piece about why the USSR economy failed. Think of the DMV or any other govt workers. They have no incentive to be efficient. If they lose money they get more funding. If they save money they lose funding.
It's the exact opposite of private business. So, the USSR ran every single business like the DMV.

That's what happens when govt has total control. And historically, govt always tries to grow it's control over individuals. To make things equal.

Because the left loves symbolic gestures that have no basis in reality. They live in a different world than you or me.

They want you to feel uncomfortable by dehumanizing you into believing the virus is Trump's fault

It signals Covid is a much more serious issue than it is. Oh My God we have to wear masks or we will die! Orange man bad! I bet if Trump starting wearing masks and preaching it, they would call it "junk science". His answer is..."Just wear a cloth mask!"

Control. In the name of righteousness.

Dims will justify horrible acts for the name of virtue and righteousness.

This is why it was pushed. If people aren’t wearing mask then most places around LA look normal.

Some pushed it because they had no other recommendations.

Masks help impede the spread. The better question is why does the right oppose public health measures?
