the confusion is my fault, I was having multiple discussions at the same time. tik tok does not make it easy.
As far as masks are conceprned I don't have a problem with doing it as a courtesy but when people get too attached to them, too emotionally invested it becomes a problem.
that courtesy turns into a demand. It turns onto a virtue signal, an in group identifier, a political statement.
it is the demanding that others conform that is out of line.
and the science absolutely does not back up these tiny tyrants. At best there is such a tiny benefit in reducing spread that it is literally scientifically undetectable.
it is nothing more than security theater. A security blanket for overly fearful people.
there doesn't seem to be anything here
