This. Masks are a lot more acceptable in public than they were 5 years ago. Given the mass surveillance going around, I'm surprised more people aren't in favour of regular mask wearing in public.
At least in the US.
Also, if this counts as social media, this is the only one I use, because I don't want to give any information away about myself within my control. So given the option of mask/fedora/sunglasses or nothing, I'd take the former.
If you see someone passed out in a fedora/sunglasses/mask outside, it may be me or someone like me who just got really dizzy because of a lack of oxygen.
On the breathing thing, I am quite tall and have a large lung capacity, I've always wondered if that had anything to do with my mask struggles.
I guess my point is, masks aren't a political thing for everyone, just the loud ones.
