I get that as there are several genuinely bad-faith types that regularly post comments here that deliberately (IMO) misconstrue what others say. M Varr is not one of them, he specifically and respectfully asked for scientific evidence to back your assertion.
You stated that you don't mind being required to wear a mask in some settings because they make other people feel better (go reread your comment, that's the gist of it). Like it or not, that's a controversial statement as most of us here do not like being forced to do pointless and dehumanizing things against our will, particularly with zero scientific evidence supporting it.
All opinions are welcome here and people are respectful provided people are posting in good faith. But you don't get to drop a turd with the a get out of jail free demand that people "don't jump on me". That's not how it works.
Between 2020 and 2022 I have been in hospitals more than I would like. I live in Florida. Land of the free. The medical settings still require it. In those settings I dont mind. I try to rationalize it to feel better. I try to find some logic in all situations, though throughout this so called pandemic, there has been practically no logic, I agree with you all!
If you do, that is fine.
Why all the emotionalism from some others? I like conversations with thoughtful and polite discourse. Sometimes that entails shades of gray.
That is why I said 'dont jump on me'. I know many can only think in black and white.
I did get some rather nice thought provoking responses though.
I also thank you for your post, though I could have done without your last comment. 😉😉
I read the previous comment and I read it as respectful. I understand your sense if being “jumped on” but I am a bit baffled.
Apparently adding "don't jump on me" to a comment means that no one else is allowed to challenge it.
No. It means read carefully, and dont misconstrue my comment's intention out of base emotionalism.
