Do you see how many people have died? That's right. over 195,000 people.

It's not convenient for anyone that this is happening. There are a lot of people barely holding on right now. And you're in here complaining about some perceived loss of freedom?

Freedom comes with responsibility.

So, wearing a mask takes away your freedom, but wearing pants and underwear does not remove your freedom?

How about all the other laws? Wearing seat belt? Why can't we drink/use drugs and drive?

If anything masks should be welcome by conspiracy theorists, as those hide your face from cameras and AI in public.

I'm not really talking about masks, wear whatever you want, as long as it's your choice.

How about forcing mom and pops to close while huge multinationals are allowed to stay open and eat up their market share? It's borderline fascist.

Is that really your definition of freedom? Having it a bit easier to infect other people during a pandemic?

Honestly, how can this make sense to you?

How can you have freedom if the pandemic continues?
