Corporations Fill Leadership Void On Mask Policy | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC
“The government shouldn’t be telling me to wear a mask. My body my choice!
Also, the government should make abortions illegal!”
What happened to my body my choice?
Wearing a mask can help stop the spread of covid19. Even if one person died from covid19 because someone didn’t wear a mask, if that one person was someone close to you, family etc. and a mask could’ve helped stop that transmission would you still not wear a mask?
Have some empathy for your fellow Americans.
You may be fine, but let’s look after our neighbors.
These are corporations telling you to wear a mask. Or get out
The hypocrisy of conservatives.
You can do whatever you want with your body. If someone wants to be killed by Covid, their choice but nobody has the god given right to harm other people. Wearing a mask is protecting not you its protecting the people around you. By the way. The goverment is also telling us to wear a seatbelt, there are smoking bans in several states, drinking alcohol in public is illegal almost everywhere. And some people getting crazy wearing a mask.
The child should get a choice if he/she wants to be aborted.
You have a choice. Wear a mask or shop somewhere else.
We know how to mend our wounds. The sociopath n his merry men have us caught n a cycle of abuse
@Some Person Nope,fact,Democrats are Neo Marxist,.if you can’t see that,you are even more stupid than I am.Forest ,you spelled stupid wrong,which proves my point.
@Andrew Potter troll 💀🖕🐑🤡
@Tom T Yes,You do not like it when you are given the facts,next you will call me a “shill”.. You cry baby.Wake up!and think for yourself.
@Andrew Potter when you give me real facts not something that you made up in your head and not propaganda 🦊 then maybe i will
“Mending wounds” Here’s a simple refresher course on first aid, apply pressure to the wound.
Thank you, big stores, for caring enough to require masks!!!
I feel bad for the employees of these stores… It’s going to be raining Karens for a while.
@Just Say’n or smoking indoors, especially an office.
@array s STFU
These stores need to hire all the unemployed bouncers and have them enforce the rules.
@array s Well we know who to blame when everything gets shut down again.
@array s I think a requirement to wear a mask is covered in the constitution by “provide for the common defense”.
You can only ‘plead’ with idiots for a short time. Then you ‘fine’ them. In Kazakhstan, the Mayor of Almaty is forcing unmasked citizens to pay a $200 fine.
200 is what lifes cost. Neat
That would be racist in the united states because it would disproportionally affect black people.
People should just start smoking inside again no evidence second hand smoke kills no evidence second hand coronavirus kills
@Dario Yet is it the white Karens and Chads who are throwing tantrums in public places with ‘wear mask’ policies
Lilly Patrick Of course its just white karens and chads, since everyone knows that if you protest and support BLM you are inmune to the virus.
Again y’all, mask on stay at home. Wash spray sanitize everything. Vitamins and eat healthy. Next month comets with aliens will hit and try take over. The comets wholes will release the underground giants I think 🤷🏾♂️😷🤣🤣
Twenty five states with PRO DEATH governors who are encouraging their citizens to joint the Trump murder/suicide cult.
In an interesting side note, in Russia it is the oligarchs who have taken measures to curb the pandemic. The Putin government like the Trump Regime is completely indifferent to the slaughter of their people.
The problem is in places where there is no security guard, people walk in with no masks. When they are ask to leave by the owner then the drama starts.
The problem is that it is the poor employees that have to enforce the rules. Target, Walmart etc should be hiring all the unemployed bouncers to stand at the door and enforce the rules.
@Ali B That is a great solution.
OK to all the idiots out there saying “my body, my choice” – what if a surgeon doesn’t want to wear a mask while operating on you? Are you going to tell the police it is your choice to wear a seat belt? Wear clothes in public? What if the girl says “if the condom is not on then you are not in”? This is an issue of public responsibility and caring for your neighbour and being a good citizen.
It’s once again conservatives denying verifiable facts and arguing their “freedumb” matters more…
Bizarre that Dump wouldn’t salvage his reelection chances when 1-2 months of mask wearing could make such an impact.
Perhaps he really doesn’t want a Second Term…he just wants to become richer and leave behind an epic mess for the ‘Libs’ to clean up.
What a lunatic.
Thank you for all this corporqtions : Best Buy, K Mart, Sam.s Club,. Klorager. It is good business . We are in this Pandemic all together. If one is hurt , all of us is hurt.
Ikr? I am a vendor that works at Walmart, really I’m so thankful.
Maybe show him everything as Stockmarket information maybe then he could comprehend the information we the world are scared for America’s
I’m from Germany and we’ve been wearing masks for months and almost nobody is against it. But then again there’s always some lunatic element of every country who are against everything. But luckily by us it’s only a very small percentage. And they’ll probably be getting very hungry by now cause without a mask you can’t go shopping..
A lot of Americans have been wearing masks for months too. But, it’s not newsworthy apparently.
Montana passed a statewide MASK yesterday for counties with over 5 Covid-19 cases. The Ad is a Cowboy wearing a mask. I like it <3
How about Costco who has had mandate in place FOR MONTHS.
Private companies just need to follow the law. They can do whatever they want as long as it isn’t illegal.
Ill believe it when I see it from Walmart…I live in Illinois and I personally know at least two stores that refused to enforce the governors orders to mask up. Paris Ill, and Marshall Ill both refused to make their customers wear masks and they are the principle grocery stores in their counties. In both counties their rate of infection is going up.
So when Walmart says they are going to make them do this all over….I will believe it ONLY when I can see it! Great PR line, but hey who looks at those little rural republican areas that do not want to believe that Covid is real.
Same story every time, the idiots act when is too late.
And yet, there are still Idiots not wearing a mask because “This is America”
Until their college age daughter decides not to want to wear clothes in public. Pretty sure they will use the “it’s against the law not to wear a shirt” excuse. Unless they like seeing their daughter topless, which kinda goes with being a tRump supporter.
This is why Asia is beating us. They wear masks out of courtesy for others
👍👍👍👍👍👍
