REAL MEN DO NOT WEAR FACE MASKS

I suppose in this time of politicalization, even wearing masks to prevent getting and given the coronavirus disease to others is politics.

Not long ago, there were the red straws with the president's name on them.*  You got 10 of these for $15 or $1.5 ea when bendable compostable straws were about $0.9 ex:.
The straws as advertised are nine inches long and bright red — the same shade as Trump’s ubiquitous “Make America Great Again” baseball caps — and they’re branded with a laser-engraved “TRUMP” on one end. The description touts the straws as being reusable, recyclable, BPA-free and made in America.**

There were conservatives who wrote that they got the straws to stick it to liberals.  Actually, I have nothing against people buying packets of red straws at a highly inflated price as a souvenir, but, if they are bought to stick it to liberals, I do wonder who actually is getting stuck?

Now we have it with masks.  It turns out that many conservatives do not wear masks when they are supposed to as a statement against liberals.  Well, I actually have nothing against people not wearing masks when they are supposed to.  They are just playing probabilities that even if they do not wear a mask to a big event, they will not get coronavirus even if others do because the number who will get the disease is a fraction of the group.  But there is a small probability that they will become infected and then infect others that is pretty selfish, I think.  But hey say this is some sort of statement against those "commie" liberals who cares about others getting infected?

Incidentally, I'm surprised that you apparently cannot buy red masks with Trump printed on them to "stick it" to liberals to prevent coronavirus spread.  Perhaps it is felt that this would be too soft a "stick" and would actually want to do some good.  Can't have that.  Cowboy, take off the sissy face mask.
