For the last couple or more months, the mask, more than any other measure, have best symbolized the audacious tyranny as well gratuitous servility.

So much so the latter, it created and marked an elitist class of arrogant obedience, perversely empowered the masked conformist with contempt towards the unmasked individual, even covetously emboldened to report, arrest, judge, condemn and punish the dissenter as self-serving, all the while narcissistically sported the conformity and docility as some sort of trendy apparel and fashion statement.
