Why has there never been a push to make everyone wear shitty loose-fitting masks during flu season? Don't you want to save grandma? A good honest response to this question would sound something like: "You know what? Ciderpress, you're right. We SHOULD have been wearing masks all this time, prior to covid, simply to protect against the flu. We were foolish not to, but going forward I will now don both my covid mask and my flu mask.".

I never get that response though, weirdly.

people like to conveniently forget it was a butt of cultural jokes towards asian people for like 15-20 years prior in media also

i remember seeing it as a germaphobia joke in sitcoms prior also like "wtf, you howie mandel or something, why you're wearing a mask?"
