[QUOTE="Dove, post: 213760, member: 535"] Your whole last paragraph is showing what I meant when I said that people have developed an unhealthy focus on the masks. They are not nearly helpful enough to say we need them made mandatory and to say it's a "threat to society" or "harms a lot of people" if someone isnt wearing it. Q......that's political histrionics. And a false sense of security. The masks are not at all comparable to seatbelts. Think about what a seat belt protects you from. Seabelts dont mitigate injuries.....they stop you from flying through the windshield of your car and becoming pulp on the side of the road. It's a false equivalence to compare the seatbelt protecting you in an accident with how a mask works to mitigate infection. Like on both levels.....regarding protection and state laws. It's not at all the same, Q. Yanno.....its gotta be fear making people so passionate about these masks. I've watched people claim that nurses should check patients social media and if the patient was opposing masks or questioning the narrative that they should be denied medical attention.....which is insanely fucked up. I would argue it's our attitude that's doing a lot of harm to people. [/QUOTE]
