Fair enough. If a Pollie told me masks were needed, I'd ignore them and check health advice.

We have pollies telling us both things over here, and I assume you do too.
The whole issue is leaders who say one thing, intentionally photo op themselves up with all the trimmings prim and proper, and then when the media is not around and the camara shots are over, take it all down and start doing the exact same things along with the people they demean and decry.
Also this behavior can strongly suggest that the pandemic isn't as serious as they put out because they don't come across as bring worried or fearful in the least.
If things were really and honestly that dire and dangerous, wouldn't it be a givin they would have the motivation to do all they can in their power to protect themselves? Self preservation?
People are accusing the Democrats of overplaying their roles and are intentionally minuplating the public to keep this thing going on and on.
This only serves to support that assumption.
First it was Pelosi in the salon, Biden on the lawn, the Democrats fleeing Texas, and now it's AOC. None of them ever showing any concern or apprehension over their own personal safety much less others, and these are the people with access to inside information to boot.
What kind of message does this send to people?
If they dont regard it as being dangerous through their well documented behavior on record, why should others be persuaded then?
