Most here (including me) are well past doing the mask thing. Pretty well confirmed that masks do not help against the virus. HOWEVER my wife is very sensitive to pollen and the allergies really mess with her sinuses and throat. As a singer, this is doubly bad. So she wears a mask outside and has far fewer symptoms. Please do not assume that she is a Karen - she needs the mask so she can avoid the allergens.

Wow how sad. So you hate your face, you don’t want people looking at you, and you don’t want to interact with other human beings. Got it. Sounds like you have autism or agoraphobia. You were made in the image of God, and you’re ashamed of it. This is what this pandemic has done to people. Actually led them to believe that they feel safer with their face covered like a slave with a cock muzzle. How sad is that !
It’s not shame. Introversion isn’t a mental disorder. :)
There’s a huge difference between being an introvert, and thinking you need to cover your face so others won’t see it.
Anyone who thinks that they’re safe wearing a mask, and that that gives them anonymity…
Your programming is complete!
Like I said, security is about layers. Absolutely nothing guarantees your security.
If I changed my license plate every month, I could still be tracked.
If I used multiple aliases for each part of my life, I could still be tracked.
If I dealt exclusively in cryptocurrency, I could still be tracked.
But a person who uses all three? They’re getting pretty hard to track.
A mask costs almost no money, is acceptable to wear in almost any location in the country, and effectively gives you more control over your own identity.
It is essentially a free layer of security. A decade ago, it would have been mystifying for personal autonomy advocates to be on the “anti” side of the mask-wearing debate.
Look, I’m not the one who turned masks into a political symbol, and I honestly couldn’t care less if you wear one or not.
But if you’re snickering at someone who is masked up in public, there’s a distinct possibility you’re mocking someone for taking their personal security more seriously than you do.
As I’ve insisted all along, the world is not so simple as to be easily divided into “with me” and “against me.”
It has nothing to do with with me or against me. It has everything to do with being made in the image of God, and actually being ashamed of your own face. Your programming is complete congratulations!
Who knows… Anybody that thinks that wearing a mask is them anonymity, is kind of behaving foolish at this point in time.
Since there are no more mask mandate anywhere for the most part, whenever I see somebody with a mask I actually look at them more. I stare them in the eye, as if to say to them, it’s OK you can take it off.
The argument that it gives you anonymity, is a false argument. It actually gives you more attention, because most people look at you like why are you wearing that stupid diaper.
Yes it’s sad that people actually have been convinced, that wearing a mask is actually to their benefit.
