How about no? I’m keeping my mask on, and no number of anti-mask zealots is going to pressure me into taking it off. I don’t get in someone’s face if s/he isn’t wearing a mask. All I ask is that the anti-maskers extend me the same courtesy.

It's isn't the anti-mask crowd that's using the power of government to force conformity.

Exactly. I was in a checkout line recently, and apparently I got too close to the person in front of me. I had my mask hanging off of my left ear.

The woman told me to get back and then said, “You’re supposed to be wearing your mask!”

I was highly irritated and didn’t, at first, pull my mask up, though I did back away. Then I caved. She got her way.

I hate how life has changed since this cr*p changed the world. And I feel bad for the very young people, who will never know what life was like before Covid. They won’t know the freedom we had.

Unless you’re wearing an N19 mask (and even then...), all you’re doing with your mask is creating a thick cluster of bacteria and virus at the place on the mask where your mouth is.

Non-conforming masks are, in that way, worse than no mask: you’re actually collecting the very thing you’re trying to avoid. It’s the equivalent of trying to stop mosquitoes with a chain link fence. And having that fence in a swamp.

Proponents will tell you that your mask is saving others (by ‘confining your spittle’ etc). The analogy given was that “if everyone is wearing blue jeans people who are prone to peeing in public won’t get theirs on you”. Thanks, Facebook.

Of course that analogy is flawed, when you consider where masks and blue jeans are actually placed on the human body, and that pee goes one direction out, and breathing goes in and out.

Applying logic and observation to information that is available should raise your antenna as to (at the very least) the possibility that public figures may be lying to you**. Because you’re here on this site, you must at least be open to that possibility.

If the masks work, why do we need the lockdown? And if the lockdown worked, why do we need the mask?

This face diaper is the biggest part of this whole hoax?

Live and let live and leave others alone, I wonder whatever happened to that.

That’s the beauty of it

IF you want TO WEAR a mask, you can.

GET IT???? FREEDOM OF CHOICE.

I love this and I may start a “refuse the mask” of my own.

Yep - those that mandate masks under penalty of law really have our best interests in mind...if you ain’t gonna bitch at them, then why bitch about those who don’t wish to be subjugated with daily doses of propaganda?
