“I certainly condemned the anti-lockdown protests at the time, and I’m not condemning the protests now, and I struggle with that,” Dr. Troisi said. “I have a hard time articulating why that is OK.”

Lmao

Because they can shift the blame to parties and social gatherings now lol

Almost self aware. It isnt ok, thats why you cant articulate it, Trolsi.

Exactly. They just assume this flagrant hypocrisy is OK and they just haven't had the revelation yet justifying their position

Just listen to some heckin science for once, you dumb rightoid yokels!

Of course, there are differences: A distinct majority of George Floyd protesters wore masks in many cities, even if they often crowded too close together. By contrast, many anti-lockdown protesters refused to wear masks — and their rallying cry ran directly contrary to public health officials’ instructions.

 why are the protesters on one side always framed as always wearing masks? Countless videos and pictures say otherwise.

Lol everyone knows exactly why, its just getting so brazen that its harder to justify to even the most indoctrinated and retarded

I mean they're not all wearing masks but they're definitely wearing them more than the anti maskers

But lmao a mask only decreases spread by so much

is this rhetorical or...?

Rhetorical

Same reason why democrat governors (Cuomo) are always praised for "taking the virus seriously" but directly causing thousands of unnecessary deaths, and republicans (De Santis) are seen as evil because they don't "follow the science" even if they still have way lower death rates.

It's not about actual results, it's about dogma. If you kill thousands of grandmas but dunk on Trump and jerk the doomers while doing it, who cares. De Santis is worse because he didn't believe and didn't mindlessly give in. Same goes for protests

Like it's actually insane that Cuomo isn't totally done for by now considering how he did the only thing you weren't supposed to do, force covid patients into fucking nursery homes.

At the start almost none were wearing masks. Now it is more calm and organized so people are wearing more masks.

Remember the scene from Star Wars when Obi Wan told the stormtroopers "these aren't the droids you're looking for"?

Remember obscure scene from starshit?

No

something something Harry Potter something

HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR LIBERAL BULLSHIT AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT. HATE. HATE.

I believe we have entered the "full retard" stage

​

a young person marching for justice might come home and inadvertently infect a mother, aunt or grandparent.

Did they just say that these protesters have no adult men in their lives? Or are fathers and uncles immune? I want to know because I am an uncle, I wanna know if I should not worry about getting infected.
