Asking people or even mandating people to wear a face mask the entire time they are out of their homes and with other people, regardless of distancing, in order to protect oneself - and anyone else - is not politicizing wearing masks.
It's taking science seriously and doing what is necessary. Mocking people because they wear a mask, mocking and insulting health officials simply trying to warn the public as the president and his enablers have done, THAT is politicizing mask-wearing. #JustSaying #WearAMaskSaveLives
@TonyStark It will be interesting how Joe BIden turns all this around, or even if he can, maybe the ruling against facebook will lead to a lawsuit by families of victims of covid. Sure following science is the best thing but not allowing all the anti mask / science lot to just spread nonsense would be even better, the platform has to take some responsibility here surely,
It's going to be a tough job. The amount of sheer disinformation is so high.
I do agree that social media hosts need to take responsibility for what goes out. We're in the post-truth we've been warned about.
It's one of the reasons I started hosting an instance, even though it's quite small.
@TonyStark I think the future is to decentralise.
The current central model has failed too much money in it for people to care about the consequences.
