Whether it’s for work or when your going out or whatever? It seems most people don’t now, but I’ve seen some places still have them. Kinda weird cuz it’s not like COVID’s gone. I still wear a mask but I’m the only person that does at my workplace and it’s kinda awkward tbh.

    Yeah, like I said, I get why people cave and just do what everyone else around them is doing. But I could have sworn it was only like a month ago that this same question was asked (I mean the question op is asking) and it was near unanimous here that the answer was somewhere along the lines of "fuck yes we're still wearing masks and if you're not you're an asshole and a bad communist for putting others at risk and also foolish for putting yourself needlessly at risk." Lots of comments about telling off libs or chuds who sneer at mask use, lots of discussion about how each reinvention increases odds of long covid and more severe health problems, etc.

    What I was wondering about was why there seemed to be such a shift away from that in such a short time specifically here. I mean, it could be a number of reasons, I'm sure, but I find it odd and disconcerting.

        :fry: ...not sure if you read my comment.

        I know why the general populous shifted their stance and when. I don't know why it shifted here at hexbear in like the last month.

          More users here are American radlibs than would like to admit it.
