Emma Green must be cursed to keep writing the same exact story where she sneers at people who wear masks

@parkermolloy Is her entire message just that vulnerable people should go die and decrease the surplus population?
@hydropsyche @parkermolloy Ironically, given the political tribalism around this issue, it might be predominantly Republican supporters who are falling victim to COVID. Liberals tend to heed the health advice and protect themselves.
@nickdixon Unfortunately, people who choose not to mask are still putting the lives of vulnerable people at risk. Two way masking is far safer than one way. There is no "you do you" in a pandemic if you live in society.

@hydropsyche The pandemic and the public response to it has been (or should have been) an example of altruism in society. We make little sacrifices to help others.

It's notable that the people most resistant to the idea of masking, social distancing and, for all I know, hand-washing, are those who are inclined to be selfish. It's the Sovereign Citizen, tax-avoiding non-contributors.
