> When Americans were “resisting authority” by not wearing masks and keeping their businesses opened despite lockdown orders did you feel the same pride in anti-authority behavior then?
As someone who was wearing a mask, getting the vaccine, but living in a community full of those people, I thought they were dumb and harmful.
And I still admired the "don't tell me what to do" spirit because I have actual objective principles that go beyond what benefits me. And I made people angry arguing that the government was overreaching the law in what they could force people to do.
Because I'm not an authoritarian. Words mean things.
