I would never mock anyone for wearing a mask. In fact, I encourage them to wear them forever. It's been great to have them self-identify as Branch Covidians.

Now, if we could only convince them that a tattoo on their forehead would protect them...

"No one should roll their eyes at — much less taunt or belittle — people who still wear masks"

It's been my experience it is usually the other way around, I refused to wear a mask until the day it became mandatory and then stopped the very minute it became optional again. I got tons of dirty looks, "Hrummphing" and the like.

Personally, the libertarian in me could not care less if someone wants to wear a mask in public for the rest of their life. More power to them in fact, just don't try to enforce your choices on me.

-- Where were the articles stating "some choose not to wear masks, respect their decisions"?? --

It's a one way street with control freaks.

First off I wear a mask indoors in public and I am not a moron. I wear high quality masks out of respect for my wife who has a serious medical condition which would likely result in death or permanent disability if she contracted COVID. Is that ok with you ??

Respect their decisions as much as they respected yours whe most people were wearing masks.

There is a reason why they are called “maskholes”!

Will they still wear their masks while swimming this summer?

Yep met their requirement. I’ve never tried it but would be
interesting to see what people would say if you wore it on
your chin with both mouth/nose uncovered.

DO NOT respect the morons! If they wear a mask, harass them, shame them, drive them out of your communities! Their stupidity has caused countless deaths, economic destruction, and harassment! F’em!

Masks DO NOT stop covid, so, yes, you are a moron since you claim the need is a critical medical situation. If she is that frail then she needs something much more than a mask, like isolation.

‘If I intend to hire a lawyer or doctor and they ae wearing a mask, I will look elsewhere.’

good luck finding a doctor who not only doesn’t wear a mask, but doesn’t require you do the same...

“Respect their decisions.”

Depends, (pun not intended, but I laughed after I typed it), on how you define “respect”.

1. A feeling of appreciative, often deferential regard; esteem: I have great respect for your work.
2. The state of being regarded with honor or esteem: a leader held in the greatest respect.
3.
a. Consideration or appreciation: Can’t you at least give me some respect?
b. Due regard for something considered important or authoritative: respect for the law.”

Definitely NOT those 3.

I DON’T respect them. I think they are fools and cowards. But hey, if you want to be a foolish cowardly MASKHOLE, y’all go on ahead.

I have little respect for brain dead idiots that think they need a mask to protect them from a non-deadly cold.

What they should really fear is the vaccine and endless boosters.

Whoever stated that ‘masks are MAGA hats for the left’ was SPOT ON...I like being able to identify them when out in public.
