One party deserves criticism for being insufficient. One party deserves nothing but scorn and opposition.

I mean, I want to give people the benefit of the doubt when I see them wear masks wrong, but instead I immediately get angry at them and think they are stupid, when that might not be the case. That's what I mean about getting irrationally angry. Most people who wear masks wrong don't do it out of malice, but out of ignorance, so me having an emotional reaction like that is irrational.
You always want to give people the benefit of the doubt. Some guy has a gun out in a bank, it would be nice and make you feel more safe to think he's just putting it in a deposit box.
I'm sorry for laughing, but that is such a crazy example to anyone outside of the US xD I think if I saw anyone in my country casually carrying a gun anywhere I would at first assume it is a toy gun and if it is confirmed to be real, I would be very confused and scared because that shit doesn't happen where I live and is extremely abnormal.
A mask off is equivalent to a real gun in this analogy.
Feeling safe is just ignoring reality sometimes.
