I wear masks in the airplane and in airports still, and in places like Utah or Texas, people get extremely passive aggressive towards me when I do. I have had flight attendants pretend not to hear me and get angry that I have my mask up, random elderly strangers tisk at me when they pass by, just so much general hassle and passive seething for something that has nothing to do with them. It’s terrifying how much people seem to hate me just for not wanting to get sick.

I lived in conservative California and we know my spouse’s veteran identifiers were the only reason we didn’t get hassled. Then we went back in a rental car and we were harassed by a small dick truck. This was in 2021.

Thank god we live in the Bay Area now, masking is still common and I see it all the time.

I don’t understand what the fucking big deal is.

Oh right, your freedumbs
