#1 Here we go. They have to define anyone who doesn't want to do as they're told as mentally ill.
The Soviets were big on that.

#4 Ah... the good old "If you don't believe the Revolution, you must be insane" tactic that the Soviets used for justification to put people in prison/gulags.

#5 People with psychopathic or narcissistic traits are less likely to follow face mask rules

And the rest of the anti-maskers are just regular a$$holes?

#6 A preliminary analysis of 194 countries found that places where masks weren't recommended saw a 55 percent weekly increase in coronavirus deaths per capita after their first case was reported, compared with 7 percent in countries with cultures or guidelines supporting mask-wearing.

#9 We asked 50 Karens what are the five worst traits of anti-maskers and the results are SHOCKING!

#10 The studies, which surveyed 1,000 people in Poland, also found psychopathic and narcissistic people were far more likely to hoard essentials during lockdown.

Sick people acting weird. Shocking.

This was because they are typically more greedy and competitive than others and have an inflated sense of entitlement, the researchers say.

Like politicians? Elitists?

Those with narcissistic personalities tend to be greedy and self-centred, and their lack of empathy means they are more likely to exploit other people.

Calling Governor Whitmer.

People with psychopathic tendencies, on the other hand, may be more cruel, deceitful and manipulative while coming across superficially charming.

Could apply to any number of well-known politicians, like Obama, Cuomo, Newsome. Hmmmm...wonder where Hillary fits in?

#11 A theory pulled out of Sir Francis Galton's rotting arse. All psychopaths are narcissists, and their instinct for self-preservation and prolonging their likelihood of survival is more effective than regular people's. Idiots.

#12 I'm sure masks reduce the amount of sputum people shed in the checkout line. And let me also say I don't know anyone who's come down with the Chinese plague so far. How 'bout you?
