It is a strange sight: on the stage of the exhibition center, the speakers stand in the bright sunlight and make their fiery arguments: “Protect the Constitution”, “All lives matter” or “Namaske, no mask.” The participants in the front rows absorb his words. After almost every sentence, they tear down their banners and posters and cheer on the speakers like rock stars. However, behind the ecstatic followers, the looks are more reflective. People in these groups clap and shout too, but the atmosphere is less exuberant. Even further back, where people wear more and more masks, there is silence. A snapshot that symbolizes a lot.
