So if someone has different views then you they have to have a mental illness?

Amtrak in Philly has a bunch of people walking up to you now while you are already wearing a mask and giving you an additional mask. I don't like that kind of harrassment and would probably snap out

You call not wearing a mask while riding the train a different view? You always like to spin what I say. Not wearing a mask on the train is not the same as that person thinking that the mask wearing is not ok with them. There are people that hate wearing a mask but they do it.

If you get on the subway March 18, 2021, and you're not wearing a mask, you're mentally ill. You're mentally not feeling well. That's your humble MoD's opinion.

Exactly THAT is your opinion. However you are not a Psychologist and you don't know these people.

People wear and don't wear masks for many reasons. It's their life and they can do what suits them.
I wear my mask out of respect for others personally.

Me too, but I laugh because I know that wearing a mask does not work. In fact, it says so on the box itself - that they do not protect against certain viruses yet there is no police to determine which masks are okay to wear inside a store.

The way to avoid getting very sick or death is by everyone taking up personal responsibility and feeding their bodies the foods that fight illness and to avoid those that do. Funny how Pepsi-Frito Lay stocks went up during the lockdown. People are getting sicker by consuming these foods, and yes Covid will kill a insulin resistant high carb body, yet people actually think that a mask will help them. This is a twilight Zone world we are living in!

So you don't think there's anything mentally wrong with for example, people who get on a plane resisting to wear a mask and end up getting arrested? Forget the train example.

I was just talking to my friend about this. We now have had this covid life for one year. Yet many many people have done nothing to get their health in check, to take care of themselves. A simple walk and eating foods with nutritional value is something almost everyone can do. People are so focused on what others are or aren't doing, when they need to worry about their health.

Masks can’t stop a virus ...BUT THERE IS NO QUESTION THEY CAN REDUCE THE VIRAL LOAD YOU RECEIVE AND SPEW . That viral load one gets is one of the biggest factors in how bad you get covid.

Covid is spread via the droplets we emit ...

Well when you book a ticket for a flight now a days they know the rules. So if they have an issue wearing a mask on a flight, they really have no business flying on a commercial plane at this time. So I think it's arrogance and entitlement, were someone thinks the rules don't apply to them.
