I hear this all the time: "Masks aren't meant to protect you from the virus. They are to protect others, which is why it is so important that everyone not be selfish and wear one. Don't kill grandmas."
THIS IS A LIE. It is my firm belief that most of these people don't truly believe their protective gear is keeping YOU safe. It's about THEM.
I'm visiting SC and only about 30 percent of the people here at our hotel are masked up, which is a nice change from VA, where it's 100 percent in my area. When someone wearing a mask sees me coming, they give me a wide berth. Why? To protect me??? NO. They're scared of me and/or hate me.
I'm tired of fake virtuous people claiming that they're only wearing these face diapers to "keep everyone else safe." No, they are not. It's about THEM.
Therefore, masks are selfish.
If you can pretend that your mask works, you can also pretend that I'm wearing one.
