Usually that TDS-afflicted clown is Trump himself. It's kinda nice that someone beat him to it.

I mean, this guy makes EVERYTHING about him, so why are you so bothered when others do the same?

Unless you have health problems catching covid is at worst like having a cold. Most people don't have any symptoms. Most people aren't scared of getting it. It's like wearing a seat belt in a golf cart.

I only wear masks when it's mandated and I'm an extreme introvert so you can guess how often I stay out when I'm not getting paid.

Social distancing is definitely not a choice. The big people choose if they want you to socially distance or not.

The opposite infringes on mine. Reopening everything puts me in danger of becoming a prisoner so I kinda want people to not wear masks (where I live) so they can close it down again.

You make us anti-maskers look bad. I personally just don't believe in doing anything that risks my health.

You just don't get that although a mask helps you a bit, it is even more important that you and the other person wear a mask to mitigate the spread.

Why can't conservatives understand that?

There are people who have difficulties breathing when wearing a mask. In some cases it is psychological, in others it is physiological.

Not wearing a seat belt might be stupid and reckless, but being mandated to wear one is a restriction on your freedom of choice. Just like masks.

That would be fine, except the "health experts" turn out to not be such experts, can't agree and flip-flop.

Why did you not understand that the NEW directive was referenced, when I stated "just made it mandatory"???
