I want people (nonmaskers) to note the “just asking questions” to being provided with numerous studies to “actually I just don’t care about others” pipeline and tell me, how is this refusal to take in facts and adapt to them distinguishable from Republican rhetoric, and are you also doing it?

Screenshot of tweet: Michael @captain-corona.... • 1h But if you get the prick why mask? I just don't understand how masks are scientifically proven to stop spread of disease. I'm not talking with a mask on. I sneeze or cough and I cover my mouth. Call me old school. Let's just prick everyone and fuck those masks shall we. And fuck Ice. Michael @captain-corona.bsky.social Follow It's not my job to protect you. I social distance and cover my mouth. Why don't you target MAGA instead. I'm not your boogeyman. Don't tread on me.

He can't figure out how to talk with a mask on? Is he 5 years old? My 16 yo daughter voluntarily wears a mask everyday to school and has no issues talking (or being understood by teachers/classmates).

Right? We haven’t stopped wearing masks since 2020 (including the kid, who was 6 at the time) and we don’t have these problems Total skills issue

Also, it’s painfully clear that this dude has decided that the way to work through the trauma of living in a community that has abandoned care for others is to join them and try to convince himself that this is the only reasonable thing to do

a lot of people actually have the same values as republicans (one might call it violent individualism), but they happen to grow up and live in a liberal environment so they vote blue just bc of their social in-group

Dude doesn't understand how masks stop airborne viruses, yet the doctor emoji is literally masked. 😷 🤔 People know, they just don't care or want to be inconvenienced, and that's the part that's (intentionally) missing from the conversation that makes it so frustrating.
