The irony of the anti-mask crowd is, it’s YOU, you dumb fucks, who are stealing freedom from all the rest of us!!
This shit is contained in every other first world nation, because no other culture has you morons. You’ve been asked to make a handful of entirely manageable sacrifices for the common good, but you won’t do that, because you possess this uniquely American malfunction--- you have a spoiled rich kid’s idea of freedom. Donald Trump’s idea of freedom, which is “I do whatever I want. And if anybody gets hurt, fuck ‘em!”
“We can contain this outbreak if we all just wear masks when we go out? Oh thank god, that’s so easy!” say the rational Americans, whose brains still work.
“NO!” shriek the wingnuts, “I’ve decided ‘liberty’ means my every passing whim must be gratified because my emotional development stopped at age three!”
And so no matter how many millions of us do the right thing, make the sacrifices, y’know, CARE ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE, there have consistently been enough of you maniacs offering free rides to the fucking coronavirus that the whole country has to to stay trapped in the fun house.
I saw a meme that says WEARING A MASK GIVES YOU CARBON DIOXIDE POISONING. Awesome. I love that I won’t be able to leave my apartment in 2020 because you and your social media circle are so easy to manipulate. Shit, this crap is all probably coming from nerds at a Russian troll farm, cackling about how it’s easier to kill Americans with memes than with bombs.
YOU are the reason schools aren’t safe for children now, by the way. All that lost educational and social development? It’s your fault, and every fucking day you spend shrieking at entry-level service employees about your perceived “rights” is another day you take from them.
From all of us. And the rest of us just have to fucking live with it, I guess. As you take and take and take from millions of people you can’t be bothered to think, much less care about. You take their safety, their peace of mind, their future. And in 150,000 cases and counting, you’ve taken everything. And all this suffering and death doesn’t seem to move you in the slightest, and I have to say, that’s really fucked up.
YOU folks are broken. YOU are failed humans. And congratulations, YOU’ve ruined everything for everyone else. You got what you wanted. Nobody can tell you to eat your peas. There’ll be a quarter of a million corpses by the end, and it’ll take years to recover from the economic carnage, but you showed us! Nobody can make you do something if you don’t want to do it!
Nobody can make you wear a small piece of fabric over your mouth. For short periods of time. To end a crisis. To save lives. Yay, freedumb.
