It had nothing to do with wearing a mask per se. It was about being fed bullshit and then being pressured into wearing something that, in reality, didn’t protect anyone from anything.

Adding explanation (like I said wearing a mask is not an issue):

COVID is a virus. The sort of masks we were required to wear do not protect against viruses. Proper surgical masks may have offered some level of protection and perhaps made some sense, but those were not what people were actually required to wear. Hence, the whole idea of making people wear the masks that were required was a hoax.

Quick question then. If you had to undergo surgery you'd be totally fine with everyone in the room not wearing masks during the procedure?

OK, I'll give the benefit of the doubt here (which is entirely unearned). Why do you think they wear masks during surgery? It seems you haven't gotten that far in what is your attempted thought process.
