What do you mean by "if America is gone?" Where did America go? What about wearing masks makes it not America? but If America is gone, where will you go? We are fortunate that we could come here…. WE were lucky, because we had a place to escape to. I often say, ask us!!! The immigrants… the Cubans, the Venezuelans, the North Koreans, anyone from the former Soviet block… Talk to us and we will tell you …. And, I would also say that is a fair game criticism, but I think we disagree on what the solution is. If Zoltan is trying to imply that scene is supposed to be a metaphor for the lockdown, while government officials still did things they told others not to do, then I will say they failed to get that metaphor across with the mask scene. But why use the mask metaphor? Taking that metaphor to it's extreme, who in current society feels exempt from wearing masks? Which portion of elitists do not wear masks? Of the two Presidential candidates, which one feels they are exempt from wearing a mask? Zoltan is trying to argue that we are putting too much focus on the "compliant" mask guy, and not enough on the elitist "exempt" woman. Pretty much the standard in all dictatorships and totalitarian regimes (I had the displeasure of growing up in one) hence the reference. When the rules are made for you but those who made them are exempt. The mask segments are about hypocrisy on the highest level.
