They're keeping their masks on. Their reasons extend beyond their health.

AS LONG AS YOU RIGHT-WING, RACIST, TREASONOUS, TRUMPNAZIS CONTINUE TO LIE ABOUT BEING VACCINATED THE REST OF US PATRIOTIC AMERICANS WHO GOT VACCINATED TO PROTECT OURSELVES FROM YOU WILL CONTINUE TO WEAR OUR MASKS UNTIL WHICH TIME YOU ARE FORCED TO VACCINATE, OR DIE FROM COVID-45!— Maynard G. Krebs (@SSilverbergh) May 25, 2021

Uh, if the vax works and protects you, why are you worried if someone else hasn't got it yet?

It's because that's what the TV told them and they are so invested in "the science" they refuse to even think about it.

This is the proper use of masks.

Mental illness is the reason.

Upset with the in-laws you have to visit? “Hey I hear there’s a Covid uprising on your block, got my mask on!”

Today a Karen gave me a mask with tongs. I started laughing.

But what about Japan?

2014 article:

Why do Japanese people wear surgical masks? It’s not always for health reasons

https://japantoday.com/category/features/lifestyle/why-do-japanese-people-wear-surgical-masks-its-not-always-for-health-reasons

Main reasons: social anxiety, don’t want to talk to people, don’t want to wear makeup, warmth, and fashion accessory.

I am in that same boat. I have to wear hearing aids and I still have to read lips. In the past I explain that to others and they drop the mask and we can communicate. For those that don’t, I walk away.

I have rarely had any communication with someone masked that I haven’t had them repeat what they say or actually ask them to pull the mask away from their mouth. At my age hearing and recognizing words can be a struggle which people talking to me masked making them sound like the teacher in a Charlie Brown cartoon.

Not true at all. I can easily detect people's emotions even when they are wearing a mask.

I agree. The eyes are the windows to the soul. The most common emotions I see on the masked are fear or anger. But not always. I’ve detected smiles from the masked on occasion.

I’m a warm-and-fuzzy kind of good person. I love smiles. I love relating to folks. I have no phobias that would keep me from relating to my fellow man. These folks are nuts, IMO.

“Couldn’t wait to get rid of mine!”

I have no masks any longer. I am not worried about someone’s cooties.

“Not true at all. I can easily detect people’s emotions even when they are wearing a mask.”

Good post. Yes, you can instantly tell a lot about folks who are still wearing masks, especially outside. Like: how smart they are? Are they independent thinkers? Are they hiding some phobia? Hair lipped, perhaps? Democrat? Dumb?

(my apologies if I offended anyone who is hair lipped.)
