Is it that conservatives think that wearing a mask, and particularly requiring others to wear them, are clear signs of being an un-American liberal?

Democrats/liberals are for science, so the fascists are against it. They also think it's "weak". Trump said over and over that wearing a mask makes you look weak. And one of fascism's major features is an obsession with masculinity and toughness.

No, it's just another wedge issue. Then again, to the neo-liberal mind every issue is a wedge issue.

It is always a them and us situation. Both sides are claiming something which has never been fully investigated and are mostly baseless claims but have been politicised. "Wear your mask just in case".

Greene banned 1 week in Twitter
