My husband and I go everywhere maskless in Texas but we are vacationing in New Mexico. Everything was great until I wanted to go into one store that I always buy jewelry in. I visited that store at least twice a year for years. They recognize me. Pulled up. Saw sign. Decided to still go in maskless just to let them know of their lost business. Owner asked us to mask up. I told her we don't wear masks. We left as I said loudly that it was silly because her mask was under her nose. You would expect her to wear it properly if it was that important.
If it was that important? If it was that important, all mask-wearers would also be wearing goggles, because a virus-laden aerosol can infect a person by contact with the exposed cornea. This was explained at the beginning of things. But no one wears goggles. It would be so impractical, frustrating, and comical that it could never be "mandated." So...we mandate the useless wearing of masks, because the real threat of infection is too bothersome to pay attention to.

Masks are just check-boxes for "compliant".
