My answer to that is “then stay the hell out of their face”.
“good luck finding a doctor who not only doesn’t wear a mask, but doesn’t require you do the same...”
There are plenty out there. If a ‘doctor’ claims they need a mask, then they are not a doctor but an Affirmative Action graduate who never should have a medical license.
“If I saw your wife out and about and didn’t know her, I’d assume health issues.”
I’d assume stupidity since a mask does nothing yet there they are claiming medical concerns while using a useless mask.
‘If your nose and mouth aren’t covered then the mask is useless unless.’
unless what...?
Masks make everyone’s face stupid looking.
“Open range” is also one of my favorite movies.
“I brung ya breakfast”. LOL
‘On the other hand, if you end up hassling someone who is ill, that would kind of make you, I don’t know, a jerk?’
wouldn’t someone who assumed I was carrying and transmitting a deadly virus, absent of any visible evidence to support that assumption, and as a result belittled me for not wearing a mask be, oh, I don’t know, a blithering idiot...?
Didn’t do a good job of cleaning up my changes before posting.
Good question.
I asked a young bank teller at Wells Fargo the other day if she’s required to wear a mask. She said no. She wears it so she doesn’t have to make up the lower part of her face. We both laughed.
‘Is that ok with you ??’
I couldn’t care less what you wear on your body parts, but if you weren’t wearing a mask out of respect for your wife’s condition until ‘covid’ was sprung on us, then yeah, you’re a moron, because any number of virulent pathogens have, and always will be, among us...
Opinion: Mandates may be on way out, but millions will still use masks. Respect their decisions.

Funny; I don’t remember any “respect” being shown toward those who preferred not to take the vaxx. In fact they were forced from their jobs, called selfish and grandma killers.
My infectious disease specialist disagrees with you. He is a professional you are just some chump on Free Republic who read an article or two and thinks he knows what he is talking about. Cheap paper masks do not work. Good quality medical grade masks do provide decent protection, there is a reason physicians wear them.
The use of masks has been politicized by both sides. It’s too late to expect either side to respect the other side.
As well, I do not abide the irrationally frightened and irretrievably ignorant ... nor do I “respect” their resulting behavior. However, I neither demand they behave rationally nor nor to I berate them for doing so. I simply ignore them and their miserable existence ... unless they dare approach me with their zealotry.
In other words don’t be like the militant maskers and get in the face of anyone not wearing one to their satisfaction. Be the better person.
Got it but I think this statement is unnecessary. Most normal people don’t care what other do with their dirty face diapers. I assume they want to hide their face for some reason. That is concerning but still their business. Wearing the dirty face diapers full of highly harmful bacteria and other harmful germs will kill them eventually anyway so the gene pool is cleaned in the end.
“My infectious disease specialist disagrees with you”
You’re just an anonymous poster who claims things that are retarded and against all medical science. Physicians DO NOT wear masks they way you claim nor do they wear them hours on end.
If your wife is that fragile, then a masks is not what she needs.
Do lie to someone else.
“The use of masks has been politicized by both sides. “
Please do tell how those not wanting masks have politicized the issue, and, remember, we’re not the morons you are, so try to say something intelligent.
It might prevent transmission of the physician's spittle, but it's not stopping viruses. No one is stepping into a level-4 bio lab wearing a medical grade paper mask.
Your post was excellent.
