I don't know about that. I received some negative comments recently for asking for evidence that wearing a mask, while outdoors, while socially distanced was ever effective.

People still have their egos and identities attached to this, seeing disagreement as a personal or political attack.

I know the phrase gets overused but that would be a prime example of virtue signaling.

I had people on here saying some pretty nasty things to me for suggesting that while social distancing is good, having a mask on when outside and more than 6 ft apart is unnecessary.

I wonder if they realize how they're proving all the "virtue signaling" critics right.

An unfortunately popular sentiment nonetheless.

Many people see BLM as a conduit for the redistribution of power and wealth towards minorities and thus communist.

Regulatory capture prevents competition. Money influencing politics prevents regulation.

As stated elsewhere, by asking the question you’re assuming the point is to have a rational argument on consistent beliefs - but it isn’t. It’s to gaslight and misdirect for political gain.

There is a difference between having unpopular opinions and advocating for violently overthrowing our government.

The word you are looking for is "oligarchy".

If you believe that supremacy is a good thing, this is absolutely wonderful news.
