IMHO, we are arguing about wearing masks for a few real reasons -

* facts have become relics of the past & truth feels like she's on her deathbed

* no one has trust in authority anymore

* maybe there are some underlying points about why maybe masks and vaccines aren't going to be the best protection for us all long term?

* some people feel invincible and don't understand others' boundaries. domination mindset you know...

I certainly wear a mask when I'm asked to, when I'm around other people indoors, or if I'm feeling low for any reason. I don't wear one on the hiking trail because (a) space, (b) wind, and (c) not enough time for exposures.

Do I think the masks help slow the spread of COVID? A little bit.

Do I think they're a good plan long term? No. Our immune systems won't keep up with a changing environment if we keep them too coddled. We need to get healthier if we want to survive.

It's easy to see how people ignore the experts. We've been doing it for a while now when it comes to the climate. Integrity went the way of the dodo over the past 4 years, after a long slope downwards.

I pray that we can find integrity again. We're going to need her.
