People in the United States with more authoritarian tendencies are less likely to wear a mask when going out in public, which might be explained by the ...
No wonder chacha exhibits so much vaccine skepticism. r/PCM is gonna have a field day with this.
I live in Japan rn and it's legitimately so insane seeing how Americans react to something just considered normal and being polite is. I totally understand being skeptical of power, I totally understand being furious with the failure of the response in the US and even am somewhat sympathetic to those who are skeptical of the vaccine. But even if you want to buy into the most out there conspiracy theories about covid, wearing a mask is just common courtesy. It wouldn't have anything to do with it. It's just revolting against living in a society where anyone should give a fuck about anyone else.
Even most Finns have learned to wear masks. Granted, it took like until October until I started seeing most people wearing them in public and you're still bound to see some maskless people (who I wish I could strangle) everywhere you go, but there's been a definite change from the start of the pandemic
Yeah it's inexcusable, they somehow thought our epidemiologists knew better than pretty much every other countries' or just wanted to be unique, it's not the time to be quirky y'know
Sweden has pretty much singlehandedly fucked up the Danish governmental efforts as well, since we compare ourselves to Sweden at litterally any opportunity.

In Sweden I think it's like 1/10 who wear masks if not less, idk what it is
Maybe your government downplaying and horribly fucking up everything during the whole pandemic has trickled down to the public.
Your deaths and infections are grim as fuck
