Yeah, like NY, most of your dead were elderly in nursing homes...right?
You like your precious idiotic masks, please wear them, but the general public should no be forced to wear them!
Wearing masks all the time is extremely unhealthy! And yes, it is virtue signaling at its finest!
I wear a mask as little as is required by law; how is it “virtue signaling” when I can’t enter a business - or my job - without one?
IT IS THE LAW. I didn’t write it or advocate for it; I’m glad it wasn’t as extreme as NY state’s law (masks had to be worn IN PUBLIC).
"Virtue signaling" is never fine
It is the sin of PRIDE.
I agree. I, too, am in the people's republic of new jersey, and we are mandated to wear masks in grocery stores, so I simply go with the bandana over my nose & mouth and tied around the back of my neck.
I look like a guy who is about to rob a train on horseback in the 1880's.
It does nothing to prevent the transmission of anything, but it allows me to get into a store to buy food. I pull it down as soon as I am out of the store and in the vestibule on my way out. This has gotten me some dirty looks from some Karens, but I really don't care. It's all theater at this point. I have not and will not be wearing a mask outside.
If you are in a vulnerable population (elderly, obese, immune-compromised), then by all means; stay home, be diligent about your health and avoid the 'maskless demons' like me. Please don't demand that the other 99% of the population acquiesce to your fear and curtail our daily lives to this ridiculous degree.
