The masks are virtue signaling adornments.
One other reason to wear a mask.....anonymity.
Hiding behind a mask is a underhanded way to hide one’s identity from law enforcement and security cameras.
Which is why I believe wearing a mask in public should be outlawed unless the mask wearer can produce a doctor’s note authorizing it.
After all, not that it’s fool proof but you need an authorization from an MD to park in handicapped parking, why not masks?
Also, its been my observation that 99% of people I see wearing masks are black.....just sayin’. 🤷♂️
I’ll wager they’d have no problem wearing burqas.
