"There are many reasons why someone who is vaccinated would choose to wear a mask. It helps prevent all kinds of airborne diseases and should become standard for anyone feeling under the weather.

"But this would mean caring for other people, and that's something the self-appointed culture warriors just can't stand for. A lack of care permeates every so-called culture war issue, from trans rights, to abortion access, to the panic over cancel culture.

"'Fuck your feelings,' rings the now-too-familiar refrain. The mask debate takes it a step further. 'Fuck your health' is the newly in-vogue attitude permeating anti-woke media circles."

Too damnably true. This is indeed a culture war against both empathy and public hygiene.
