To ignore the actual, practical purpose of masks in favor of a (literally) imaginary symbolism is so very bizarre.
I think it illustrates what I was saying, that some people's takes seem to be driven by agenda instead of or in addition to data. It's pretty clear there is a strong correlation in general between people's views on vaccines, masks, etc. and their political leanings. In both directions, that's not aimed at anyone in particular. In other words, before any of this started, you could have predicted where most people would be.
