If masks worked, the Bolshevik Democrat Party would have banned them.

the ones way up where you can't reach do the dirty work, per se. It's sort of how bagless vacuums work. Make air go around a sharp corner and particles will separate from the airflow.

The lefties would probably argue that "we just haven't had enough time to evolve that yet because we're only one year into COVID" but it's an interesting point.

Well, actually we kinda did and that's a big reason for why masks are useless, they're redundant. Our mucus membrane is very useful in clearing out living and dead invaders, dust, gunk, junk, etc.

Natural selection only removes traits that stop you from reproducing. COVID won't kill you before you have a chance to procreate, so it will have very little to no effect on the future of our species, at least not genetically.

The Black Death wiped out a ton of Europeans, leaving only the population with certain genes that helped them survive it. It's not like the infectious disease caused the changes, but rather the people without those changes died off.

That's not how evolution works.

I thought that was how evolution works.

Perhaps I was mistaken.

Feel free to tell us the error of our ways.

Why don't we have thick hair all over our bodies or the physical strength of other mammals our size? Because our brain allows us to make advanced tools. It's like saying "if armor worked we would have evolved with some sort of plating covering our vitals".

Lol this is absurd. This is some weird appeal to naturalism. You evolved a brain because the landscape is to complicated to over commit to innate solutions. The mask would therefore be a by product of the process. You can just not wear a mask because it's dumb, instead of making weird claims.

There is a reason we exhale and a reason we don't breath back in what we just exhaled. It's science.
