This masking business is insanity. Just pull down your mask for 3 seconds.
But no, it is vitally important that every human on the planet mask for every second of the rest of eternity.

It wasn't until I started following Vicky on social media for the lols that I realized how unhinged this segment of the internet is about masks. For example, see their freakout about a photo of a recent New York City DSA meeting where hardly anyone was masked (also, like any of these keyboard warriors would ever actually get off the sofa to attend a meeting, even if masks were enforced). They truely believe it is the most important political and moral issue of our time and that you are committing genocide and eugenics if you don't mask.
I am not anti-mask - I sometimes wear them myself and have no problems if someone else chooses to - but to demand that the whole entire world (including small children) mask 100% of their waking life for the rest of their lives is insanity. Kids need maskless faces to learn language; humans evolved to use and read facial expressions to communicate and connect; sharing food and drink with people is good for one's mental health and is important in almost every culture for a reason.
What a stupid way to alienate people and divide your potential allies. Although, these are likely the same people retweeting "working class is an ableist term" tweets, so I shouldn't be surprised.
