North Carolina legislators are considering legislation that critics say would ban wearing respirators or other masks in public for health reasons — but allow groups such as the Ku Klux Klan to wear face coverings.
“Thought the North Carolina mask ban couldn’t get any worse? Buckle up!” read a May 14 post on X, formerly Twitter, adding: The bill “has specific carve outs for entities like the KKK to continue wearing hoods in public.”
More than 172,000 people saw the post and nearly 400 accounts shared it, according to X’s metrics.
