When I wrote that people are blindly ranting at others over a meaningless virtue signal I wasn't asking you for a demonstration. But hey, you certainly proved my point.
Sure I guess there is a risk. There is a risk walking down the street. I think the risk it pretty trivial. I mean maybe if you are running a marathon in one or it's old and clogged. I think people blow it out of proportion. I understand way. It's wrong to mandate that people wear them. Cloth masks are useless and It's not good for very young kids not to see peoples facial expressions. Crazy liberals are begging to surrender our freedom for a little pretend safety. The problem is whole mask thing is just banner waving. People start making up facts to show the other team is bad. I've known people that called me a liberal sell out or wearing an N-95 when working at a doctors office. People think that just because I wore a mask that I believed in lockdowns vax mandates and all kinds of other craziness. I guess I just really have virtue signalling that that's all this really is. Both 'sides' of the issue do it.
I don't get all the mask hype either way. no a cloth mask doesn't do shit but it doesn't hurt anything either. anyone claiming that masks are terrible obviously never had to drywall a house or sand bondo on a car any other damn thing that kicks up a lot of dust. At the same time trying to stop a virus with a cloth mask is like trying to stop mosquitos with a chainlink fence.
It made the normies feel like they are saving the children. So they voted for the politicians that made those laws and rejected the leaders that objected on the grounds of personal freedom. The logic is on the part of those in charge who seek to expand government control. If expansion is your ultimate goal this was a logical law.
