I don’t like wearing masks.
Do I wear masks, hell yes. Why? First because I do not want to get COVID. I am vaccinated, but I could still contract or carry COVID. Secondly, I want to protect other people, even those do not think they need protecting or want to be protected. Thirdly, I am trying to make a statement about what is the right thing to do.
In this week’s edition of the local free alternative newspaper, Riverfront Times, there is a quote about masks that I absolutely love:
Masks are a metaphor for selflessness. During a pandemic they should be a symbol of community and national sense of duty, much like rationing was at the outbreak of World War II. ~~ Editorial by Ray Hartman, Faisal Khan’s Well-Aimed Middle Finger
Absolutely, freaking YES!!!
Yes indeed. Wear the freakin’ masks, people.
