This is a motivated reading/projection. I think the ease of habit formation when the rules are simpler (“wear masks in public” as opposed to complex if-then-else rules about outdoor/indoor/crowded/not crowded) explain thus better than “obedience” for most people https://twitter.com/ConnerHabib/status/1295335690717278211 …

It is revealing that he’s turned off replies Demanding obedience to the viewpoint in the replies while accusing everybody who masks broadly instead of learning a finicky algorithm of unthinking “obedience” Some sort of authoritarian projection/overcompensation?

I stop at stop signs when driving even when streets are empty. I signal when I turn even if nobody is behind me. Lazy-efficient low-cognitive-effort habit formation, not sheep-like obedience. Thinking/decision-making costs more than adopting a worst-case defensive habit.
