Give us your best covid story.

I don't really have any good ones but I went grocery shopping without a mask tonight as I usually do. For some reason I was acutely aware of the vibe being given off by the NPCs. It was palpable.

People staring, people steering clear and one guy I swear was about to say something to me but I moved on before he had a chance.

It's weird to me that EVERYONE except me (and the place was busy) was wearing a mask. The front door says "please wear a mask" so I politely declined.

I don't have much hope for the future. I'd like to succumb to covid or some other horrible disease than to live on this planet anymore.

Actually that's incorrect, if it is a business entity that is for profit it has to adhere to a wide range of Standards established by the Department of Justice the Ada and also local governing agencies. The exception to what you are describing is actually only capable of existing within the Realms of law in one place and one place only and that is a religious establishment. A religious establishment does not have to even build a wheelchair ramp if they decide not to. But if it is a grocery store a gas station the pharmacy or anything where you basically go in and spend your money that's open to the public and doesn't have any kind of notice whatsoever that it is private property and then yeah fuck them you don't have to wear one. I have yet to

I think the distinction is "necessary services" or some such verbiage. Going to Starbucks would not be considered a necessary service. A grocery store on the other hand is.

Admittedly I haven't done a lot of research on this topic. I was talking to a lawyer and that was his take on the law. Your mileage may vary.

That is absolutely not the case. A business can refuse service and ask a person to leave at any time for any reason as long as it's not a protected class reason. The business can't, for example, refuse service because the person is a Baptist, or because the person is from Ireland. But in general, a business can refuse service.

Not according to the Civil Rights Act of 1964

Business could kick you out for any reason before this like being Black

After this they could not its that easy

Being black is an example of a protected class. You can't kick the person out because they are black. Choosing not to wear a mask is not a protected class. A business can refuse service and ask a person to leave at any time for any reason as long as it's not a protected class reason.
