    Now, who is fighting to conserve freedom and who is fighting to do away with it? That's right... conservatives wish to conserve freedom while liberals wish to be authoritarian.


    At any age, masks do not work. Their pores are far too large and viruses are far too small. People who religiously wear masks are still getting COVID and other diseases (yes, other diseases exist) all the same as people who don't wear masks.

    There is is again, “freedom,” always cracks one up, only the right can take an abstract concept and reduce it to a bumper sticker cliche, always loved the “patriot” who said closing the Golden Corral buffet violated his “freedom”

    And as far as masks, as I said above, it is comical how many of those who have been wrong, often continuously wrong, on nearly everything they said or predicted regarding Covid still offer authoritative appearing opinions regarding Covid.

    If the government says you no longer have to wear a mask, it is not the same thing as the government saying you cannot wear a mask.

    Please, wear your mask if you want to.
    I would note that the "Maskers" have changed their tune from "Follow the science!" to one of "The majority want the mask mandate." That is, they're now making an irrelevant appeal to popularity versus the irrelevant appeal to authority they were using. Their argument, however remains irrelevant.

    If someone wants to wear a mask, go for it. Don't shove that useless shit down my throat because you want to feel better about things however. Your particular brand of insanity doesn't mean I have to agree with it.

    Why do you never see the freedom crowd railing against seatbelt laws?

    IDK what you are talking about... I always rail against seatbelt laws. It is bullshit to force a person to wear a seatbelt.

    The Constitution doesn't allow a govt. organization to offer guidance?

    How Wearing a Mask Can Help Protect You Even If No One Else Wears One

    https://time.com/6168672/how-wearing-mask-protects-you/

    So... Just because I don't wear a mask it doesn't make it so you also don't have to, please... wear your mask if it makes you feel better. As we enter the endemic stage of this disease and mandates are no longer necessary, you can feel safer if you just mask yourself up.

    Science.
    So my point is completely valid. Thanks for the acknowledgment. Truth to tell, I don't give a fuck at this point. People want to die, let them.

    Let's state the premise in a different way:

    Hey, if they get rid of drunk driving laws, it doesn't mean you have to drive drunk. Feel free to drive sober.

    Cool. Let's do it.

    Yup.

    I stop at STOP signs...and Red Lights. I drive at about the posted speed limit. The government demands that I do so...and by extension of your "thoughts", the American Right thinks that is an invasion of their privacy.

    Like I said, ya cannot fix stupid with duct tape. And there are no vaccines to combat it.

    Ya know what...there are times I actually wish Trump had won rather than getting his ass kicked in 2020. With him leading the charge, we'd probably have half the population of right wing assholes now alive in our country.
    ON HIS WORST DAY, JOE BIDEN IS A BETTER PRESIDENT THAN TRUMP WAS ON HIS BEST DAY!

    Traffic regulation is not force to undergo invasive medical procedures.

    There was no valid election held in 2020.
