Interesting observations. Your home state is coloring your perceptions, though. Let’s contrast your observations shopping with mine. Went into several stores. About 5-10% of people wearing masks. Some signs suggesting that you wear a mask if your not vaccinated. They’re almost universally ignored. That’s good, because I don’t even know where my masks are. You can get the vax if you want, but nobody asks or cares if you don’t.
That’s just a small example of the cultural differences between blue and red states. And it’s just going to get ever worse as the lunatics sink further into the cesspits of their own digging. Leftists never, ever, EVER take responsibility for their policy failures. It’s always the kulaks and counter-revolutionaries who are to blame. We’ve all watched this movie enough times to have a real good idea of what eventually happens to any kulaks the left can get its hands on.
If you’re a conservative living in a deep blue area, it is Time To Leave.
Had two people take off their masks today.
