The point of wearing masks is less about protecting the person wearing it and more about protecting those around them.
Do you have a problem with handwashing? Using sanitizer? They aren't 100% fool proof, but it reduces infection rate. Same with using a mask in the appropriate setting. Wearing a mask while in crowded indoor areas is just a good idea, during a pandemic, during flu season, any time there's reasonable concern for spreading an airborne pathogen.
Going forward, this is a good idea to do and not a whole lot to ask for. Grocery shopping during a severe flu season? Wear a mask for those 30 mins. Use the bathroom? wash your hands afterwords. There's an active epidemic in the globe? Be extra mindful of hand hygiene and wear a mask when in crowds. It's not a lot to ask, stop making it a political statemant.
Literally, the only thing being asked of you is a few minutes of being mildly uncomfortable for the small percentage of chance of preventing someone around you from falling seriously ill. That's not a lot to ask, don't be so selfish.
