    Fauci would probably get a better response if he said “Don’t wear masks so the lib cameras can track you”.

    All of a sudden masks sell out everywhere.

    Seriously use reverse psychology.

      I’m leaning towards having the CDC recommend these people don’t jump off a bridge so we can just get rid of this nonsense.

      Yeah, they really marketed masks wrong in the beginning. Hell, think of how much more traction Trump could’ve had by marketing masks this way. AND he could have sold a shitton of branded MAGA masks.

        The old ‘give the public the best available information in the best way you can’ ploy. It’ll never catch on.

      Homer: “Reverse Psychology? Oh that sounds too complicated.”
      Homer’s Brain: “Fine. DON’T use reverse psychology.”
      Homer: “OK I WILL!!”

      Or simply just say “no need to wear masks” and conservatives will suddenly be all for masking up.
