How is this is a different point of view, if politics and psychological influence on groups of people making decisions for others run hand in hand?
I think we've had this same disagreement before, in which case, we're both being redundant. Is that reason to call me out specifically as being redundant, where you're rehashing the same point I am?
It's really not a different POV, but it's certainly a nuance--you see it still as a personal, individual psychological thing; I see it as bigger than that, which trips over into either group psychology or, as I see it, politics.
Where you don't have an issue with individual decisions to wear a helmet or not, more as an issue on a meta- level, I can't help but think this has way more to do with group psychology, i.e. politics, than it does with individuals.
