My take is because people are largely selfish and ignorant beyond their day to day life. Their favorite politicians/personalities told them masks infringe upon their freedoms and they bought it hook, line, and sinker.

Once someone is convinced they're right, no amount of evidence or information will sway them. Especially now since they have ready access to any echo chamber of their choice and it's super easy to filter out dissenting information.

When you realize the sun can fucking kill you and, if you're of light complexion, very well may.

If I feel under the weather and I must go out, I'll wear a mask. Otherwise, no. Society at large has accepted the less dangerous variants as a fact of life.

During the pandemic I wore them everywhere. A large section of society showed they couldn't be fucking bothered so here we are.

What is even the point of bringing up mastodon in the title? This meme is old as dirt.

The only point of saying weed is not addictive is to say you can quit with no negative repurcussions.

Now, if you become dependant on it for one reason or another, that's addiction.

If Hillary were president instead of Trump we wouldn't see this stacked court.

That has nothing to do with Obama's promise or whatever.

I fail to see why you're turning this around on her. She simply stated a fact that became reality.

If you need any reason not to believe in god, it's that Trump got to appoint THREE FUCKING SUPREME COURT JUSTICES
