Apparently, wearing a mask to protect yourself is now "politically correct."

[Bleacher Creature]

I've always hated that term (and would say the same thing about the vile cretin who used it).

1. Whether you are wearing or not wearing can be politically correct, depends on your politics.

2. Being respectful is now politically correct? Fuck that.

[paleotn]

7. Always has been.

I've always equated "political correctness"...hate that term, with simply acting like a decent human being. Jackasses seem to have a problem with that. I don't know why.

14. Yeah, politically correct is code for "I deserve the right to say any stupid shit I want, no matter

how racist, sexist, homophobic, nativist or offensively dickish it may be."

[Squinch]

5. But, really, who gives a damn what they think? We need to stop wasting our brain space

on those people's reactions.

Perhaps we should just answer, "Yeah, fine asshole. It's politically correct. Now go away."

21. I would just look at a person that says that, roll my eyes and laugh.

Let them deal with being treated like a fool.

8. If being responsible is politically correct then yeah...

I'll be "politically correct" for once and give a shit about those around me.

9. not wearing a mask is called "being dead"

maybe they think if they stop believing in the virus it will magically disappear? Maybe they think being a republican gives them powers to avoid sickness and death?

10. No, asshole, the reporter didn't want your vile, evil, covid19 infected breath on them.

[roamer65]

11. Amazing how this creature weaponizes everything.

[Thekaspervote]

12. When wearing a mask is socially and politically correct the "antimaskers" will be pushed out

It’s a start

[bdamomma]

I wear one to protect others in case I am asymptomatic.

[cayugafalls]

18. Wish he would have said, "No sir, I refuse to be stupid...like some people."

Just saying...push back at that cretin.

tweet and make fun of people who treated this as a national emergency"
