Is this in service of a “higher principles” or a “tribal adherence”?

I wonder if this same driver would have let a person enter the bus without a mask in the summer of 2020?

Are you actually comparing a physical equipment that's meant to block disease spread in public with existence of a human being who's born somewhere they can't control being born in???

Power consolidation=evil.

but you're implying that the driver should have the same moral qualms about someone's birth place vs someone's choice of risking others. What am I missing here? What's the tribalistic moral choice here? Is it the belief that "masks don't actually prevent spreading diseases"? I can accept that (even if I don't agree).

Not at all. Just pointing out that human behavior in America is far more animated by tribal adherence than some appeal to a higher principle.

My tribe says X is bad, thus X is bad.
My tribe says Y is good, thus Y is good.
