I live in Chicago and everyone just wears a mask and it’s not a big deal at all.


Well, Chicago isn't really open yet, is it?

This is spiking in most states, including many liberal states.  IMO, it's not a "muh rights" thing but a self-centered millenial thing.

Why is everyone in Ohio so anti-mask?

It is mostly open. 

You think it’s Millennials who are anti masks? What?

The spike in cases appears to be coming from bars, colleges and mostly 20-30 something people. 

So, yeah, there's a bunch of fucking millennials that aren't practicing social distancing or wearing masks.  LA is a huge hotspot and it doesn't get much less "muh rights" than there.

The idea that it's only a bunch of rednecks not wearing masks because of Trump is just your run of the mill libtardism being pushed by CNN.

Trump country. 


Most voted for and worships a guy who refuses to wear a mask and says they’re worthless. Essentially we live amongst a bunch of Quakers and Spocks.

Nah... I see it everyday with family and co workers and Facebook feed and so on and so forth  it’s not a CNN push.

Right, but the point is a lot of Democrats aren't wearing masks, either.  It's not political, it's selfish people who aren't wearing a mask because they aren't concerned about contracting it.

You’re not wrong. But in my experience, be it at work or kids school or even in my family, it’s overwhelming Trump supporters who are anti mask.

I don’t agree with that at all.

I’m not even saying it’s rednecks or trump supporters. I actually asked the question “why are people in Ohio having such a problem wearing a mask?” Not insinuating it’s political. 

I don’t think people are testing positive for covid with a little thing that says “you got this at the bar you entitled millennial”

Unfortunately, it is political. The majority of the anti-mask people I know are indeed Trump supporters who are crying about their rights. I mean they cover their dick, balls and/or breasts to go into a store because they have to, but a small piece of fabric over their face is "unconstitutional."

That may be true, idk. Fucked up, if so. Just wear the damn masks, who cares

You realize that your small Ohio town isn’t a representation of the US, right?

I do. I thinks he's one of the many, if not most, who pick and choose facts and pseudo-facts to support his preconceived opinion.

You can be anti-mask yet still wear one when mandated and still social distance. All the protesters seem to be pro mask but they sure as hell weren't social distancing. Yelling with a mask on doesn't do a whole lot.  Also, how many "muh freedom" people would even get tested unless their symptoms were very bad?

The 7 counties with mask mandates in Ohio:

  • Cuyahoga County - 65.8% for Hillary, Obama in 2012
  • Trumbull County - 51.2% Trump, Obama in 2012
  • Huron County - 65.5% Trump, Obama in 2012
  • Franklin County - 60.6% Hillary, Obama in 2012
  • Montgomery County - 48.4% Trump, Obama in 2012
  • Butler County - 62% Trump, Romney in 2012
  • Hamilton County - 52.6% Hillary, Obama in 2012


The spread doesn't seem that political unless you are literally saying that it's only the republicans in these counties spreading it, which would be ridiculous. Must be all the republicans in LA too.

As for the younger crowd spreading it, the cases are spiking younger. BUT, what does that mean related to testing 2 months ago? When tests weren't open to just anyone, how many younger people were getting tested. With the increase of testing, I'm not convinced it is all bc of younger people. Cases going up still does not matter unless hospitalizations are going up. Arizona and FL seem to still have issues, but I haven't seen much reported elsewhere that people are dying or hospitalized at an increased rate.
