Your Mask Is Making You Meaner, Dumber, More Afraid & Less Safe

...Because you’re wearing one, you’re mad at anyone else who isn’t. You can’t say with any real certainty or evidence that you know you’re right to wear one, or that the other person is wrong not to. But that’s what you were told, and you believed it. So you decided to get a mask and wear it and yes it’s a pain but you believe it’s part of a noble, collective effort to work together and do something big. And so when you see someone who isn’t wearing a mask, you take it personally. You’ve been told that that person doesn’t care about your health and safety. And you believed it. And so you see the person who isn’t wearing a mask as a bad person; one who isn’t willing to chip in, as you are, for the collective greater good. And worse, you see someone who doesn’t care if he or she puts others in harm’s way. You’re wrong. And I’ll explain why shortly. But that hostility you feel for those not wearing masks is both unhealthy and unfounded. Your mask is making you meaner...

I’m not feeling or thinking any of this.

If everyone wears a mask, then all of the sick people will have a mask on.

I agree, but some people think their freedom to not wear a mask is more important than another person possibly dying from a disease. "I'll defend my freedom with your life."

There’s not just men on this forum by the way. I plan on making fun of all of the young adults wearing masks, not the old folks

I wonder how long we would be told to wear the mask if it had Trump 2020 written on it.

Danny has had his panties in a twist from the beginning. Pay him no never mind because you won’t get anywhere. Apparently, every person who gets the virus immediately dies, in Danny world

Yep, it may not help with this or not but I don’t see how people can be so offended or inconvenienced by such a little thing to maybe give some of those with more anxiety a little peace.

Funny. I live in Coronavirus infested New Jersey. As many know, we are the only state that does not allow people to pump their own gas. Most of the gas station attendants (if you can call them that) do not speak English and while some are courteous most just continue to blabber away on the phone through wireless ear pieces while “servicing” you. Today I needed to put $20 of gas in my car. Call me a Fearper or threaten to take away my man card for all I care but you best believe that during my brief encounter with the unknown gas station attendant I wore an N-95 mask, eye protection and gloves.

Well, really, if you believe you should wear a mask, you should also be wearing a head covering and long sleeves, long pants, socks and shoes. So you should always go out wearing your MAGA hat, MAGA mask, MAGA shirt, and maybe some patriotic looking shoes if you can find some made in the USA.

That sounds like a great plan now that I’ve typed it out. lol

Not every asymptomatic person gets sick! Life is always a risk. That’s how it has always worked and will always continue to work. You do not isolate healthy people. You isolate known sick people.

According to you, no symptoms means that you’re probably carrying the virus and you’re just gonna give it to somebody so you better isolate and cover up. Nope. Not happening, scairdy cat. YOU isolate yourself if that make you feel “safe”. I want no part of your dangerous little world

You can spread sniffles to a vulnerable person. So for the rest of our lives we have to wear masks because vulnerable people might get the sniffles?… No

Vulnerable people need to protect themselves. If that means wearing masks then so be it. Asking everyone on gods green earth to wear a mask on the off chance that they might have “something“ is really wrong

I haven’t either until. . . I just tried making a mask made out of some black material eye coverings I was going to use for a game in Kids’ Church . .didn’t plan to reuse. If I didn’t need the Epson salts for my garden and plants I would have cancelled the WalMart pickup order. It was a good deal. Anyway for my short time in WalMart my mask will definitely be one of a kind. The other day I had to go to our small local post office to pick up packages and the sign said no one without a mask would be allowed in the lobby. I put my sweatshirt over my nose and mouth. . .stuck my head in the door and asked about my packages. . .the postmaster told me to go to the back and the packages would be there for me.

I’ve seen enough studies to convince me there’s a risk reduction for a person wearing a mask. It’s no guarantee but if there’s a chance I can delay getting COVID-19 by wearing a mask until very effective treatments are developed, I’ll go for it. (I’m a believer in hydroxychloroquine + azithromycin/doxycycline + zinc, but who knows if i’d be able to get that when needed.)

Yeah, i’m taking vitamin D, C, extra zinc, quercetin and have some NAC and EGCG which i haven’t started taking yet. Those are no guarantee either, but they may shift the odds in my favor a bit with regard to actually getting COVID-19 or reducing the severity of it. That’s my attitude toward masks, too.

The blogger just sounds like someone who makes unwarranted assumptions to me.
