Or perhaps they don't want to be treated as a pariah by friends/families/neighbors. So they've contrived this hilarious stupid idea that masks reduce oxygen intake.

I'm sure that Three Wolves in Snow here will vehemently object to their dentist or surgeon wearing a mask the next time they go under the knife. I mean, who in their mind wants to be operated upon by an oxygen deprived sheep-person. (What's the singular for of sheeple?)

What I wouldn't give to be a fly on the wall of TWiS's life to see other ways in which he/she justifies other selfish and antisocial behavior.
Moon Landing?
Obviously, a hoax. I knew a guy who.......
Flat Earth?
Everyone knows the Earth is hollow, and that is where the aliens park their spaceships.

When pseudo-science gets in the way of Truth, we get bilge like "moon landings," and flat or round Earths.

That's ridiculous. That's a ridiculous reason to wear a mask. And it's an even more ridiculous reason to "mandate" that people wear masks. But rest assured, that home made mask, the dust mask, the visor, the scarf, the t-shirt - none of that is actually protecting you. It may actually be hurting you as it cuts down on the amount of oxygen you would normally be getting into your system.

And they are even more pointless when people don't actually wear them over their face - hung down below the chin does what?

They are even more pointless when people are adjusting them and touching them all day - and then touching everything else out there.

The only mask that would protect you from anything is the n95 mask - and most people do not have that type of mask.
I agree! Especially the breathing and oxygen part.
At this point I’m convinced that those that worship the MSM and take what they say as gospel will follow any ridiculous suggestions because “experts” said so. Where are the experts that are contracting the ongoing narratives? That’s right, they are not on MSM because MSM shows us what they want us to see.

At this point I’m convinced that if today, the first official day of summer the MSM begins repeating the following, that most people will adhere to this....
”Research now shows that if you bark like a dog

“Research now shows that if you bark like a dog or like a sheep every hour while wearing a mask, your chances of getting the virus substantially decreases. Furthermore, if you do this, you have a much better chance of fighting off the virus at the early stages.”

I’m now convinced that if the news were to repeat this every hour, every day, that by the start of Fall, we will be seeing lots of barking mask wearing people.

For data down to the zip code level, which is what I'm using to track in my area:

https://covid19.ncdhhs.gov/dashboard#zip-code-map

Scroll down 3/4 of the way to the bottom

You can search for any zip code in NC or just look at a particular county.

And you're (attempting to) shame and bash people who are simply trying to be decent, considerate citizens. Which is, you know, sad and pathetic.
