Or choose not to and take responsibility for the consequences. Choices are awesome!
So in the event you (hypothetically infected but not aware at the time) would infect others by not wearing a mask, you would take responsibility for it?
Have fun proving that one. But if they could prove it was me, I'd do today's version of taking responsibility by simply saying "my bad." Isn't that all you have to do these days?
So. You talk big about your freedoms and how you are not a sheep following whatever everyone else does, but then when you actually need to follow through on personal responsibility, you join the flock of sheep to avoid consequences of your actions?
Yep. All your posturing and arguments, but when push comes to shove, you run and hide in the crowd.
I never used the sheep analogy, you might be thinking of someone else.
For all the dense people out there, the "my bad" reference was making fun of the "my bad" culture - falsely claiming responsibility without really doing anything about it.
The hypothetical posed was a silly one. If you catch a cold or the flu or tb or chicken pox or some std from someone and you can prove it was them you caught it from (usually easier with the latter one but not always for some), what is their responsibility to you? Typically none. This is the same situation.
Masks no, distancing yes. Distancing solves it all. If I don't have a mask on and that concerns you, then don't come near me. Problem solved. Just b/c you want to walk or stand or sit near me doesn't mean I have to don a mask. Go near anyone, whether they are wearing a mask or not, then you are taking a chance.
