If you cant wear a mask for your own selfish reasons.

Douglass only believes in 1 thing:

Wearing masks is a vote to shut down the economy permanently.

No I believe that wearing masks is fine but is effectively functioning as a placebo in our society because the vast majority of masks being worn don't provide much protection against transmission. Which isn't the end of the world, because covid does not appear to be very dangerous at all for the vast majority of people.

Lockdowns on the other hand I think are *extremely* bad because the health risks associated with contracting this particular disease are miniscule compared to the societal risks of shutting down entire local and state economies for an entire year.

I'll give you masks, I'll even pretend that covid is airborne ebola; all you have to do is explain in specific detail why *lockdowns* are justified.
