[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure the anti maskers in here are really going to be able to provide reasonable responses to this question that aren't full of propaganda that folks like me who believe in mask safety reject.  Which is too bad, because I'm trying to help you here, really, and prevent my kid from seeing your kids as callous and unconcerned about people who are immunocompromised.

I've also thought about saying that you shouldn't necessarily fault a kid this age for following what their parents believe.

So The Atlantic and WHO are propaganda now?

People are not anti-maskers if they now are considering not masking in certain settings based on the guidance of health professionals.   I am not an anti masker.  Never have been.  Never will be.  Haven't even decided what my own kids will do next week.  But the point is this is nuanced and complex topic and people thinking it through and considering not masking children at school are not "callous and unconcerned".   You feeling your child's head with this crap is just wrong.

I'm the PP who posted this about propaganda, and if you look at the time stamps you can see that this post was only written a minute or two after the WHO and Atlantic article was posted, and I wasn't responding to it, but to earlier commenters who were saying that masks didn't work at all etc.

Actually I posted again above and specifically highlighted this post as one which WAS helpful to me in putting together a response to my kid.  Maybe you didn't see that.[/quote]

Genuine question though.  Were you not aware that the mask in schools issue is debated by serious people and the WHO has a position that does not support it?  How were you able to arrive at your position as a person who believes in mask safety without looking into things further?  Because you're throwing around some pretty big words.  Anti-masker, propaganda, callous, unconcerned, etc.   Sincerely, if you were completely unaware that reasonable people have and have had a different position than you on this topic, you need to commit to better educating yourself going forward prior to coming out with such strong opinions and statements.
