This is what I don't get: why are you so aggressive and insulting? If we wear masks we're "afraid", we're cucks. Nobody here is insulting you for not wearing one...the MSM and lefties maybe, but not the guy above. Not me.
I support you not wearing a mask 100%. Why can't you support those of us who think that we may help prevent the spread to someone immune-compromised, even if it's a small chance? Why (like this graphic) are we ridiculed as pussies? Why is it so binary?
Stop listening to everything you're TOLD to do, and do the things you know you should be doing. This doesn't just apply to masks, it applies to life.
I'm not calling 'you' a cuck, and much like a woman can be acting like a bitch and not BE a bitch, some here are acting like cucks. Maybe they aren't cucks.. I'll gladly apologize if you think I was referring to you.
My full force and the hill I'm willing to die on is that I cannot be forced to wear something. I'm 100% okay with you wearing a mask. I have never once told people they can't/shouldn't wear a mask if it benefits them...
My point is and always has been, this has nothing to do with Covid and public safety and has everything to do with politics and conditioning.
If you're not willing to stand up for yourself on masks, when will do? when it's mandated you castrate yourself? Might seem 'ridiculous' they'd never ask you to do that.. but when people like Me who see it coming are gone and taken out back and shot... you'll be peer pressured to cut off your own dick and balls.
"First they came ..." is the poetic form of a prose post-war confession first made in German in 1946 by the German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984). It is about the cowardice of German intellectuals and certain clergy (including, by his own admission, Niemöller himself) following the Nazis' rise to power and subsequent incremental purging of their chosen targets, group after group. Many variations and adaptations in the spirit of the original have been published in the English language. It deals with themes of persecution, guilt, repentance, and responsibility.
I'm not listening to what I'm being told to do. I have an advanced degree and have weighed the facts as I see them and decided that although small, wearing a mask is something I'm willing to do. It may or may NOT help, but in this case I'm willing to make the small effort on the off-chance I may help someone. I'd never even know if I did, but that's ok with me.
I'm willing to stand up for myself for quite a bit. Saying yes to the mask doesn't mean that my hands go up in surrender and I give in everywhere else...that's silly. A mask is not even a molehill, let alone a hill to die on.
Don't wear a mask, I don't judge you in the least, but the overall attitude on TD towards those of us who do wear it is perplexing.
It's not so much that those like me who don't want to wear masks feel hatred/anger at you guys For wearing masks..
It's that those who are afraid, and wearing masks, (some) are insisting that those of us who don't just need to just be shamed a little harder into Understanding something that.. escapes us.. because we're lesser/horrible people who deny Science. (remind you of anyone named Greta?)
Its very patronizing for someone to claim 'Science!' and "Experts!" and "Gov Mandate!" etc.. but those same people never want to talk about the Stats or actual testing efforts, or issues, or failed predictions or the source of the virus or the root of government authority.. They want you to Shut up and wear a mask.
That sort of attitude is how you get punched in the face - and that's the misdirected anger you're getting from others. The people who are insisting we shut up and wear a mask are causing division worse than the fucking race bullshit.
They pretend to care about human rights and wellness but in reality would be happy if I starve so long as I don't buy my groceries without a mask.

That's what the left does.
You know how to not be a cuck?

Thanks for your balanced response.

Thanks to you, too. I understand your perspective, Pede :)
