"Key points you should know:
* Mainstream media coverage of mask bans has given space for politicians’ false
claims that masks are associated with wrong-doing, like crime and antisemitism,
while overlooking that bans are, in many ways, an effort to suppress the
reality of COVID-19.
* There are 21 states and numerous municipalities with laws against masks or
disguises on the books. People who wear masks would benefit from knowing
exactly how they are worded and any legal precedents, as police are often
under-informed.
* Both Republicans and Democrats are pushing more severe mask bans than ever
before in history. Democrats are more likely to give lip service to health
needs without offering meaningful protections.
* Masks can and will be criminalized by police regardless of the language of
the law, as arrest trends follow social trends. Police are also permitted by
the Supreme Court to make mistakes in enforcing laws."
