[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the real world, there are no mask mandates.  No one is forcing anyone to do anything.  So I wonder, what is wrong with all the angry anti-mask, anti-test people on this thread.  why are you even on this thread?   No one who is more cautious than you is hurting you? WTF is wrong with you? [/quote]

Some are trolls

Many of us are people who genuinely want to do the right thing, but also find some of the amateur public health advice and moralizing ("I'm a good citizen and you are not!") shared on DCUM to this day pretty dumb and irresponsible. [/quote]

To be fair, you have to include the context that those comments are usually in reaction to those saying they DGAF and Covid is a lie/over/overblown, you name it.  I don't hear "I'm a good citizen and you're not", I hear "don't be an ahole".  I think there is a distinction.  [/quote]

I think you'll find the COVID deniers actually love being called murderers for not wearing masks because it truly makes you look unhinged. I recommend reserving that term for people who perpetuate anti vax myths because those people are truly responsible for a  lot of death and the data clearly show this. Not so much for anti-maskers, as annoying as those people were at the height of the pandemic.[/quote]

PP here.  I agree with you, and have not called anyone a murderer.  [/quote]

DP, and I wish the poster (it seems like only one) who keeps calling people selfish and making unreasonable demands would check out of the thread so that those of us who still, for whatever reason, want to avoid transmitting COVID to people in our lives can have a discussion. [/quote]
