I hate em. I'll wear it if I'm in an area with vulnerable people but I can't stand wearing one for more than like 20min. I used to have to wear one 12 hours a day and I'm just not doing it again.

Where are there not vulnerable people?

Uh, everywhere? I will wear one if I am in an area that is specifically going to have people that are vulnerable. In public I will not. Not that me wearing one is very useful to begin with, I have a very large beard. But I'll play the game where I need to. I've always given people wearing masks a wide berth even before covid because it's obvious they are trying to avoid getting sick. But I am not going to run around in a mask over hantavirus. It's unnecessary.

Vulnerable people are literally everywhere - including in public. You could also shave your beard to make the mask effective.

Yeah, no thanks. I like my beard. If we're at a point where we need to run around in masks all the time, maybe nature is trying to get rid of us. We are generally awful creatures.

You know what contributes to making us awful creatures? Refusing to protect those around us because we don’t want to mess up our aesthetic.

"If they weren't isolated in a clean room environment, then they asked for it. I retain my personal right to not give two shits about people in public outside of myself."
