    The Spin

    Left narrative

    Though many wish it to be, COVID is not over. Masks have become politicized and unpopular when, in reality, they are a tool to protect everyone. Too much time is wasted fighting each other rather than fighting the pandemic. We can't continue to put selfish interests before science.

    Right narrative

    While wearing a mask might provide the illusion of safety to some people, it doesn't actually do much other than provide a false sense of security and spread alarmism. Masks were an excellent weapon authorities could use to spread their message of constant fear, division, and dehumanization.
