Normal, functioning adults also abhor being persistently subjected to demands from strangers to obey their every command ... especially completely irrational commands made to healthy people to "put on a mask" or "stay two yards apart".

Being forced to act irrationally, particularly through demands from strangers, is something most people will not tolerate much longer. My response to such a command takes the form of a no-nonsense statement while maintaining no-nonsense eye contact: "You can no more force me to put on a mask than I can force you to stop acting like a bully."

If the bully persists and demands I obey them or leave, as I turn to go I say: "You need to know that I have as much contempt for you wearing a mask as you do for me for not wearing one, you bully (or punk; whatever)."

At any hint of nearby Karen behavior, I start coughing immediately.

It works wonders!
