masks sometimes. Which was dumb, and moved the discussion from the murder of citizens in the street to when masks might be necessary. Thankfully, Murphy and DeLauro were able to walk that back and reiterate that masks have to go.

But this published list of negotiation points is a completely different subject, and I've seen nothing on DU resembling what you are saying. I've seen no one on DU saying this is bad. Apparently you have. So again please do provide links.

Otherwise, we'll have to assume this is YET AGAIN outrage at DUers about something that never happened on DU.
