    Better that than to hurt the feelings of someone who cares a whole lot about people wearing masks.

      From reading the article, I get the impression that this bill is mostly about them wanting to be able to arrest protesters who wear masks to hide their identity.

      Which is still really shitty, to be clear.

      But here I thought Republicans only cared about facts, not feelings. . .

        The Republican claim on hard-nosed, reality-based reasoning is just so astoundingly mendacious. I find myself legitimately perplexed over the whole thing.

        I mean, the guys who believe the Earth is 6,000 years old, trickle-down economics work, ectopic pregnancies are a gift from God and mustn’t be stopped, vaccines are poisonous, life doesn’t evolve, and Donald Trump was a good president are the down-to-Earth realists? Is this performance art of some kind?

        How do people like that survive to adulthood?
