Seems a little lopsided "Trumpism, Libertarianism, religion," I would guess all the college kids on spring break getting ready to take the virus home with them fall right into 1 or more of those categories.... you told others to leave politics mostly out of this but you can't ....

That's not politics.  That's an observation of reasons I've been given for why they don't heed caution. You did notice I said, "people I know" right?  Or did you assume I was talking about those college kids at the beach because...that where your mind when based on those categories?  If someone tells me they aren't going to abide by X because of Y, saying Y isn't being political.  Being political is utilizing a given issue for the persuasion of an agenda typically at the detriment of an opposing agenda.

I did catch the part where you said "people I know" so you are now telling me that the people you know are saying "I'm _____ so I'm not worried about who i come into contact with" insert: egotistical, indifferent , a trump supporter, libertarian, or religious into the blank.  Did I get that right?  Sorry it seemed to me to you were taking a jab at broader groups.
