    How about posting it from another site, a real news site? I know, I know...right-wingers have a distorted view of what that actually means, so I'm liking describing color to the colorblind.

    So, are you more concerned about my comment about info wars, or what doctor Wen said? 'Cause I don't really see what Dr Wen said as being all that offensive. What exactly about the mask thing bothers you so much?

    Well you know it's much easier to scream fake news than do a little bit of critical thinking on one's own

    Huh? So the news changes depending on who’s reporting it?

    ok,. so social distancing 'is back.' Why then would you suggest that the CNN analyst's remark was addressing people who are not social distancing? Does she not know social distancing 'is back'?

    you agree with my reply to someone else that I deleted with a "." and re-replied after they edited the comment I replied to?

    Because they aren't social distancing. That's why.

    Why aren't CNN viewers social distancing?

    Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know it's just CNN viewers that are the problem. Interesting. How do you come to that conclusion? Never mind, no one cares.
    As far as social distancing.......have you ever seen New Year's Eve at Time's Square. Of course you have. Why did you ask such an odd question?

    I havnt seen any other news outlet telling people that cloth masks are just decoration. It stands to reason that CNN thinks their viewers need to know that. And since its because (as you claim) 'people arent social distancing', CNN must think their viewers are not social distancing.

    I mean its either that or you're just trying to cover for their ridiculous shenanigans. But that would just be silly, so Im trying to work with the former option.

    Which is why Trump coined the term and then weaponized it with The Following.

    The left just love forcing the right to do whatever they want. That's it. That gives them pleasure. That is the endgame. Yes, no masks is 0% effective but mask wearing is only 10% effective. The left need to quit lying to people by implying that masks are much more effective than they really are. Masked people spread the virus, by a whole lot, just as vaccinated people spread the virus, by a whole lot.

    That nonsense....but IF it was true it would only be for your own good and the good of others.
    No, it's exhausting. To constantly have to drag your type to move society along rather than have you in a fantasy world in the past that never actually existed wastes time, money and energy. Civil rights, gay rights etc......you're wrong and have been proven wrong yet you still put up the losing battle.
    I'm betting you can't back any of that up.......or you would have.

    Yes. You haven't figured that out yet?

    It explains a lot about what is going on here.

    LOL. That's exactly what the left think. They are going to take people's rights away for the good of the country. But, not to worry, as soon as they determine that the good of society doesn't need their rights taken away anymore, those rights will be restored. Yeah, right.
