I want to reiterate that polls have consistently shown 80-85% of Americans are on board with masks and social distancing
Those people are staying the fuck home, to whatever extent possible, which is why our public spaces seem to be full of anti-science jagoffs
There’s not actually that many of them, they’re just the ones spending the most time outside their houses
update: 89% of Americans say they wore a mask when leaving the home in the past week
now that doesn’t mean they did it consistently or correctly (you still see the occasional nose sticking out) but it’s only 11% of people who are actually saying no to masks
You can still fill up any given public space with only a fraction of that population, and I’m gonna be real curious to see how this weekend plays out, but I want to emphasize that the vast majority of Americans are listening to science and trying to do right by others
personally it helps me a lot because otherwise if I see too many Dipshits Hate Facts headlines I start feeling like the whole country’s a death cult and that’s no good for the old equilibrium
