‘Wait, they don’t? They’re fine after decades of mask wearing? Oh...’

love your mask, do you...? then by all means wear it all day long, wear it in the shower, wear it to bed...go for it, if you think it’s right for you...

myself, I hate the masks, I hate the maniacal authoritarianism that requires that I participate in someone else’s paranoia of catching what amounts to a highly survivable health event...I agree that the author’s characterization of the mask dangers are overstated, but I applaud him for overstepping the taboo against covid orthodoxy skepticism...

"love your mask, do you...?"

No, I'll be perfectly happy when no stores are asking me to wear a mask any longer. I've been fully vaccinated for months. But that's entirely different than buying into nonsense fear porn about masks being dangerous. That's absurd. We have decades of evidence from tens of millions of people showing that it's absurd.

"I agree that the author’s characterization of the mask dangers are overstated, but I applaud him for overstepping the taboo against covid orthodoxy skepticism..."

Skepticism about whether masks reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission is fine. There's a lot of evidence to say that it does reduce the risk, but there is always the possibility that it doesn't and if someone has actual evidence to suggest masks don't reduce risk while indoors in public places, then by all means it should be shared.

But spreading nonsense fear porn that directly contradicts observable reality vis-a-vis masks being dangerous doesn't help anyone. It just adds more fear to the mix. Plenty of that out there already.
