Why the Masked and the Unmasked Have Disdain for Each Other
 [Townhall] Among the many unbridgeable divides between Americans is a completely antithetical view of mask wearing. On one side are those who wear masks almost everywhere outside their homes and who demand that others do so, including young children in class and on outdoor playgrounds, and 2-year-olds on airplanes. On the other side are those who only wear a mask where they are punished for not doing so (most obviously, airplanes). They regard masks as essentially pacifiers for adults. Generally speaking, these two groups have disdain for each other. Why the pro-mask half of America holds the anti-mask half in contempt needs little explanation. They believe anti-mask Americans are putting others in grave danger. Pro-maskers believe that even children who do not wear masks put their own lives and the lives of other children and teachers at risk. If the only problem with the pro-mask position were that it negates science, it would only be harmless nonsense. But while it is nonsense, it is not harmless. Posted by: Bobby 2022-01-25 |
