There seems to be this elitism surrounding masks and maybe not in the way you think. While average Americans bicker over whether to wear a mask or not, the rich and famous seem immune to the issue. I think people are sick of seeing celebs and politicians walk around maskless as they demand masks be worn by the lowly commoners that surround them.
Rep Dan Crenshaw from Texas noted that the celebrities spotted at the Superbowl were all maskless, proving that their calls for mask mandates are nothing more than cheap virtue signaling.
“I think this is just increasingly frustrating for Americans as this ‘rules for thee, but not for me’ nonsense occurs. Eric Garcetti said he was just holding his breath. I’m sure all these celebrities were holding their breath the entire time,” Crenshaw told “Fox & Friends.”
Crenshaw said that the only virtue they have is the kind they can signal.
“They really don’t believe the masks work or they are effective in these cases. They know that people can go out and live their lives. They will continue to do it and not note the hypocrisy that they are engaging in,” he said, adding the left sees itself as the elites who can tell Americans what to do.
Violating California’s indoor mask mandate which is in place until Feb. 15, celebrities such as Jay-Z, Charlize Theron, LeBron James, Jennifer Lopez, and Ben Affleck were spotted enjoying themselves at the Super Bowl without wearing masks.
The celebrities and Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti were blasted on social media for fraternizing with each other at the game without a mask while they were not eating or drinking.
There are 12 US states and territories that still have mask mandates, including California, Connecticut, and Illinois. Eleven of those are regardless of a person’s vaccine status.
