I don't get the anti mask stance.  It has substantially improved my quality of life.  I haven't had so much as a sniffle in over a year.

people are idiots

I'm no anti-masker but I'm not down with "facecoverings at the pool" the rest of my life.  Sniffles aren't scary.

I think most of cold and flu season would be a thing of a past simply by keeping school mask policies.

making masks available everywhere for when you have sniffles or a cough and stuff and shaming people who don't utilize them when they do would probably make everyone's lives better. this should be a common ground thing, right?

yeah I'd think it could/should be socially responsible thing to do going forward.  I'm sure the "you can't tell me what to do" personal freedom fighters will be against it because it's not benefiting them, just their fellow man.

I would also be fine with airlines continuing to enforce mask policy. Nothing worse than having a nasty cold during a vacation.

I'm happy to hear that, it wasn't clear what was meant by "anti mask" and that masks are preventing getting sick the past year.

Mask up when feeling bad if have to get out should be the norm and not shamed if someone wants to wear one in public but overall should be individuals choice once we finally get over this hump.

I take some pleasure when private businesses dunk on magas who think it's in the Constitution that they be allowed to shop at Lowes with no mask

If anyone can and does enforce their policies on their customers, it's the airlines.

it baffles my mind to even think about.  Much like the cancel culture cries.

Hoping that is one thing.  Thinking that if they do it, it is an infringement on your constitutional rights is another

We should definitely be more pro-masking /staying home if possible when sick. Places shouldn’t start requiring masks in general, that would suck. (I know it would not violate my rights if they did tho)

Agreed. It sucks. I'll do whatever I have to do to travel right now, but if everyone gets chipped and it still becomes a "thing", I'll be pissed/annoyed af.

They don’t even enforce it now.  An anti masker can just pretend they’re snacking on something and have their mask off for 80% of the flight.

I hope there are scientific studies in the works that measure the effectiveness of masks at preventing the flu/covid/other diseases on airplanes and airlines mandate mask usage (or don't) based on the results of those studies.

Just bring booze back onto the planes. Masking up isn't a big deal.
