I don't wear one in my day-to-day, but I'm certainly not going to begrudge somebody for wearing one, and you can be sure I'm gonna have em around for flu season, COVID or no.
The problem is masks got politicized by assholes that want to be contrarian for the sake of preserving their paradigm, their worldview.
These are people so mentally weak and reliant on the lifestyle they've grown accustomed to that when something like a plague comes around, it shifts their paradigm so fuckin' hard that they have to tell themselves the science is wrong and everybody is going to be fine. I suppose the other part of it is treating your national politics like a fuckin' football game, but that doesn't even warrant discussing because it's so goddamn obvious and pervasive.
Now imagine, as a hypothetical scenario, the government tells us aliens are real one day, and they're here. Watch these people really lose it. Wouldn't know whether to shit or go blind.
Edit: As for the people that are just genuinely tired of hearing about it, be it on here, Reddit, or else where... Pull the fucking plug and let everything go for a bit. Decompress. You don't have to be online and connected to everything every minute of your boredom or free time.
There's no lockdown anymore. Go touch grass.
