Honestly I don't know why masks are political. I don't think it is right to force anyone to do anything, but it is just a common courtesy to wear a mask especially if you feel sick. It is not difficult and I personally I do it entirely for my own safety and the safety of my family.
No one had to tell me to wear a mask, I got N95s before the whole thing hit, and I wear it regardless of what the recommendation is, same for social distancing.

The masks are political because the left insists everyone wear them even though they add no protection for society. Indeed, if they actually worked it would be even worse because it would simply prolong the pandemic which is counterproductive for society. Wear one if you want but understand you look like a little faggot who enjoys being bossed around by authoritarian lefties.

you definitely looked like a cucked faggot for wearing one. There are so many pussies even on here sweet jeebus grow a set and practice civil disobedience. I don't get why these are such difficult concepts.
