Not since the glove in the O.J. Simpson murder case has a piece of fabric received more notoriety and discussion than the modern mask. Even after Joe Biden shuffled up to the mic to take what was supposed to be a verbal victory lap for COVID decline, a surprising number of Americans were still reluctant to believe in the safety of "facing" the world without it.
In a contentious America whose resentments are played out publicly in the name of race, sex, social status, and political affiliation, it is perhaps not surprising that one's choice to wear or discard a mask has also given rise to controversy.
Yet even now, there are far fewer objections to wearing a mask than to getting inoculated with the COVID-19 vaccines, despite the fact that the latter has been determined virtually fool-proof and the former just about useless.
For the first time since his presidency, Biden was conspicuously mask-less as he delivered the CDC verdict to the effect that vaccinated Americans — or those who gained immunity from having had the disease — were now free, with some exceptions, to remove their masks. As he droned on, Chameleon Joe tried to transform himself from the long-dark-winter, doom-and-gloom candidate into the triumphant victor over the virus. In fact, he had the chutzpah to taunt so-called "naysayers" over whom he himself had pessimistically presided.
One would think this long anticipated good news might send compliant Americans pouring into the streets to make bonfires of their well worn masks. But perhaps due to Biden's general flip-flopping on issues, a surprising number of skeptical people — ironically, most of them Democrats — did not take him at his word.

The only people still wearing masks, are the vaccinated. Think about that.
Obama didn’t do bleep. He was just carrying out his Overlords directives for the Plandemic.
>>> As long as you tolerate it.
Thank you for hitting the nail on the head!
What do you do in the tye shoos? I'm not sure I've been in one.
Many where I live have dumped the mask. Just stop wearing them.
I totally agree. Time for people to go after these criminals. Quit giving them cover.
Well you cannot intentionally scare the crap out of people then flick a magic switch and turn off that fear. I suspect that there are many who will NEVER feel safe without a mask again. I actually have no problem with those who want to wear it, or with businesses that require it. I understand that it’s tough to overcome fear, even if it was manufactured fear. I will patronize businesses where I don’t have to wear it, and I won’t tolerate criticism from those who want to keep wearing it, though.
we were just in Northern Ohio- hardly any masks indoors or out.
A couple of usual suspects tho.
At this point, I love masks because they are great tools to identify people I don’t want to have anything to do with.
I now go most days running around without even seeing anyone with a mask. I go to elementary to high school baseball games with 50 to 200 people at them. It looks no different than 2019.

Don’t have to be a moron, as sometimes you just forget to take it off.
I don't know.
How long are you?
I did not wear one except in medical situations. If you are still wearing one, the issue is with you.
Locate backbone.
Say no.
Remove mask.
The only people still wearing masks, are the vaccinated...
Yes, we noticed that in the Western NY Area as well. You literally can tell who’s gotten the jab and who hasn’t.
