Jonathan Last: “We have a ‘don’t wear masks’ movement that overlaps almost entirely with the ‘reopen immediately’ movement.”
“There are only two possible explanations for why this might be. The first is that people are dumber than a bag of hammers.”
“The second is that when people tell you what they think about ‘reopening’ and ‘masks,’ they aren’t actually talking about the coronavirus. They’re telling a story about how they see themselves and their place in the world.”
“I realize that this is a false choice. And when you see people nodding along as Judy Mikovits claimsthat ‘wearing the mask literally activates your own virus’ it can be very difficult to tease out which way the causality runs. But on balance, I lean toward the latter explanation.”
