This evening in the lobby of my apartment building I was not wearing a mask, but had it around my wrist for going in the elevator, or in case I knew I would have to get close to anyone. This guy walking in screamed at me, "What's the point of the mask, dickhead?" (Perhaps I'm late to the conversation on this, but this kind of thing has not happened to me a whole lot this year).
What will it take for people not to treat each other like this, and just admit--as one other poster on here said--that it's dehumanizing to have to wear a mask everywhere you go? I am a graduate student in a large city, and living in a world where you pretty much aren't allowed to be anywhere without this overarching form of control imposed on you is just wrong.
