Well, WW II went on for 6 years and society seemed to recover from that. One could argue that the “wars of the 20th century” lasted in hot or cold form for 75 years and things seem functional. I think people have lost perspective along with willingness to help others. Most people have drivers licenses and health cards and face all sorts of restrictions which were deemed reasonable in 2019. And cell phone users constantly broadcast their location, interests and often their intentions without concern. Why masks?

> Why masks? a lot of anti-masking is due to the influence or propaganda via the right-wing media (such as fox news, or other murdoch media https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assets_owned_by_News_Corp https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assets_owned_by_News_C...). I want to believe that this may be a form of infiltration and covert activity from foreign powers attempting to influence the west - after all democracy's weakest link are the people. But i can't be sure it is foreign, and not self-inflicted.
