![Denise, you're a fucking idiot [595x247 - 23KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/zXn4q1.png){kind=link}
The only way to get through to these idiots is to use their own logic and "science" against them. -
Masks do not prevent people from catching Covid. The reason for the masks is to make it harder for contagious people to infect others.
If you think that you may be contagious, you shouldn't be out in public. Anyone wearing a mask is either anti-science for not understanding how masks work, or they are selfish murderers who are needlessly putting other people at risk.
If you think that you need to wear a mask - Stay home and self isolate.
What we may also be seeing is some sort of induced hypochondria (imagine the mental state of actual hypochondriacs). Or perhaps more likely, a psychological signalling between maniacs that they are "in the same team". They are signalling their belief in the group psychosis. By doing so, they feel a connection and sense of community and purpose. These people are dangerous, these are the sort of people who want anyone who doesn't believe as they do to be put in a camp.
That's why I suggest using what i said above.
They want to feel superior, holier than thou. Because they're heroes saving lives, stopping the spread; they're the smart people who are safe and clean, while everyone are evil selfish stupid dirty science-denying murderers.
I'm flipping it. By wearing a mask, they're the science-denying virus spreading selfish murderers. And I'm using their "facts", their "science", and their "logic" to make them into the bad guys.
This fucks up the dopamine rush of putting on a mask. Their own group might be seeing them as diseased science-denying virus spreading selfish murderers. Instead of seeing them as heroes. And they can't just brush off what is being said, because to do so would contradict their group's own logic, morals, and values.
Part of the problem with that logic is Covid is SO DEADLY, you might not even know you have it!
