How long do you plan on wearing a mask for? Will it be for the rest of your life? What will change your view?

This isn’t meant to be inflammatory. There’s someone at work who wears one everyday and I’m too afraid to ask them.

    Why does it matter if someone chooses to wear a mask or not? Maybe it’s a great excuse to avoid facial recognition software.

    Sunglasses are better for that. The idiots trying to ban masks aren’t trying to fight crime, they just want to normalize spreading illness.

    I wear a respirator whenever I’m in an indoor public space like a store, and I also don’t spend more time in those spaces than I have to. I go into the store and get what I need, but I generally don’t linger around browsing stuff. That means I probably buy less stuff, which is good for my wallet as well. But politicians hate that. They want us out there spending. That’s why they are trying to play down covid risks. So they hate mask and respirator usage since it reminds others that the virus is still out there.
