They got there by arresting people who weren't wearing masks.

Good. Well, obviously arrests in China are not very good, and arresting is overkill for not wearing a mask, anyway, but it’s a lot better than the utter indifference we have here. You should be fined for not wearing a mask.

Any leftist would be shocked, surprised and then absolutely applaud trump if he enacted a federally mandated fine for not wearing a mask what the fuck u talking about lmao. His defence bill veto was already popular for a lot of leftists, they're not just gonna cry fascism at anything he does if it's a good idea in their eyes.

Like... I support fines for not wearing masks indoors or on public transportation (they actually exist in my country too, and I feel safer, not less "free") and I'm pretty sure most progressives in the States would also support it. Trump would never do it though because its his own base that's convinced masks are somehow an attack on freedom...You got it twisted man.
