It really doesn’t. You just simply don’t do the thing others are doing. Wear a shit eating grin as they cross the streets in fear as you walk down the sidewalk and laugh when they are too cowardly to let you shop in their stores.
If it makes you feel better, you're not the only one. I've refused the entire time. I've had people scream at me, I've had a greeter literally chase me through the store, I've been denied service. (I'd considered suing for that one, not really worth the time though.)
But, what I've noticed more than anything is when I casually wear no mask, have a pleasant demeanor, interact with everyone like there's nothing to be afraid of, they take theirs off. Seriously more times than I can count now I've watched men and women take their masks off when they see ONE person not wearing it.
Its a simple gesture, it's a small one, and it's important we keep making it.
You are a hero. This takes real courage!

This is why its so important for us to unmask
