I am a white American. Just because I am white I am not a sheep. Also I do not look upon my neighbor as being a festering petri dish of pathogens but as a human being.

Hispanics are less likely to do so. Saw them flaunting it at a flea market, bro.

What percentage of black Americans are willing to beat an old woman to death with a 2x4 every time a criminal gets shot simply trying to knife a cop?

Well, the so-called "experts" like wishy washy Fauci and the Surgeon General guy were against masks, before they were for them, and where's the proof that they have made one bit of difference?

I'll tell you one thing - if China Joe Potato Head Biden mandates a mask, I'll NEVER don one again!

It seems like fake news to me. All over New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Maine, Connecticut, rural New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and other states I have seen nearly everyone in public, in an indoor situation, or outdoors near others, wearing masks.

And most of those people happened to be white.

Now it is true that rural Americans don't feel the need to wear masks when they are not near anybody else. I am sure the same is true for rural Americans of all races. We haven't lost our common sense yet, and when the neighbors are 1/2 mile away you really don't need a mask to go outside and start up the tractor.

100%. It’s some sort of weird cope that comes with a pagan worldview. A type of works-righteousness virtue signalling.

This survey doesn’t seem to differentiate between outside and inside. Wearing a mask while outside is very redundant. It’s almost impossible to catch the virus outside. One study of 7000 cases traced only 2 to outside transmission.

If I were surveyed about “when in contact with the public”, my answer would be completely dependent on outside v inside mask wearing. I’m outside in the public a lot, unmasked—in parks, outdoor wineries and restaurants, or walking in the neighborhood mostly—but inside (stores, doctors), always masked.

HEALTH NOTES: People of Color Suffer Disproportionate Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic
September 03, 2020
Apair of studies released recently show how Black, Hispanic, American Indian, and Alaskan Native people in the United States continue to suffer an outsized share of sickness and death in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This new research — including heightened impacts to workers of color — should draw additional attention to the many systemic issues influencing disparities in the disease’s effects.

https://medicine.yale.edu/news-article/27086/

People of color should follow the example set by white people and get rid of the masks. The science is in.

Is this just “white” white people or are non-white white people included?

Newspeak, get used to it.
