People who smugly walk into businesses not wearing a mask are cringy because they think they’re being so brave, but in reality they look like selfish assholes.
I actually find it really interesting that there is a surprisingly high number of people that think masks don’t work.
Like, put the hundreds of scientists and scientific studies that have established that they‘re effective aside. From a conceptual standpoint, how wouldn’t masks work? It’s a physical obstacle that prevents particles from spreading.
It’s like putting your hand of your mouth and yell. The sound that comes out will obviously be much quieter.
Also: The funniest argument that anti maskers use in my opinion is the idea that it’s harder to breathe wearing a mask. Let’s just assume this is true: Coronavirus particles are 120 nanometers, oxygen is 0.120 nanometers. By saying you can’t breathe, you’re implying a 0.120 nanometer particle (oxygen) cannot go through the mask, you’re inadvertently admitting that a 120 nanometer particle (Sars-COV2) is not able to go through the mask

need a pithy ending to avoid discussion, like "No mask, no service, no debate"
