You’re implying that the impact only matters if it is direct.

‘Actual cause’ implies a singular input and output relationship which is both rarely accurate and the type of logic that enables things like anti mask lunacy, and vaccines, and other conspiracy theories.

Overall I don’t see the problem as anti mask protests...I see anti mask protests as a symptom of the selfish stupidity that seems to impede progress.

No, I acknowledge and want to account for indirect effects.

I just want to hold ourselves to empirical evidence, not just our political leanings.
