7. The Maskless Asshole Who Threw a Fit at Lee’s Sandwiches
A couple of months ago, some maskless asshole was filmed screaming obscenities and nonsense at the fine folk at Lee’s Sandwiches. As the hate-fueled rant prompted employees to ask him to leave, the man was prompted to accuse the staff of being “a traitor to the country” and of harassment when they asked him to stop harassing the cashier. Because when a white guy refuses to do something in the best interest of his fellow men and screams in people’s faces for no goddam reason, he’s exercising his rights or free speech or some shit.

6. This Tulsa Anti-Masker Business Brigade
Last summer, a group of Tulsa business owners, including the profiteering hosts of something called a ThriveTime radio show Robert Zoellner and Clay Clark, filed a lawsuit against the city for implementing a mask mandate claiming that masks restrict oxygen and are thus unsafe to wear. Now I don’t know much of biology. But I’m fairly certain that the researchers from the Mayo Clinic who did science stuff and came to the conclusion that masks are safe to wear probably know better than two business dudes who look like villains on the set of a Tim Burton-directed Batman film.
