Wearing masks isn’t the problem. It’s government agents acting with violence and completely hiding their identities in the process.
They know that what they’re doing leaves them at risk of consequences of legal and social varieties. Those fears are understandable and acceptable for protesters, even on the far right. But law enforcement bears the force of the law and as such has an ethical obligation to be above board about who they are
masks = vigilantes is so common in superhero stuff so its just kinda of funny to see masks being used by the police irl, like they are always so against hiding their face and that being an issue lol
