If I’m wearing a mask it’s to protect me, not you. You can worry about yourself. If you’re that fragile, stay the frick inside.




I completely agree with your second sentence and I'm not pro mask at all. That said, you wearing a mask doesn't really protect you.

Why not just wear a patch or chew the gum?

These people are wearing a mask because they’re worried about breathing in a virus that may or may not cause health issues but still inhale cigarette smoke that will more than likely cause cardiovascular disease or cancer.


You could make the same argument about fat fricks wearing mask. How far do you want to extrapolate this idea? The answer boils down to two decision aren't mutually exclusive.

That's why I wear the masks that have the one way valve that allow me to exhale all my germs but not inhale yours.

I'm wearing a mask though so you can't criticize me for not following government guidelines.

It’s a bad habit. Why beat up the person. Let’s assist them with breaking the habit. You don’t have a single bad habit? You don’t ever go eat out anywhere or ever get fast food? You free of soft drinks? You walk daily? How’s your blood pressure?

I’ve seen many heavy smokers give it up
After years with the habit. All of them had something in common: family and friends encouraging and helping. The Karen’s out there beating them up don’t help. You’re a Karen.

Someone today admitted that the improperly worn cloth masks are 90% ineffective, but still clung to the “but isn’t 10% Effective better than none?”


I asked them if they would use a condom that was 10% effective.

Improperly worn cloth masks (which is about 90% of them) don’t stop diddly.

But they make Karen feel better, and that's all that matters.

It wouldn't be if it werent available.
I'm not beating up the person individually, I'm beating up the industry
Yes, I go get fast food...but I eat it! And food is essential to life. Smoking isnt!

The sooner you ban tobacco, the sooner your friends and family arent addicted.

Our country could use that land for crops. Just pass a law smoking is banned by 2025..gives industry time to wind down and farmers time to swap crops and equipment.
Just an example, but it needs to be done

Help me understand you wearing a mask while shoving cylindrical objects into your anus. Mysterious ways and such.

Nicotine may actually protect you from the corona.

By that rationale, smokers just shouldn’t even bother wearing seatbelts.

The tar from nicotine help create an anti-COVID barrier.

So in summation, smokers don't get COVID bro. Light 'er up!

bullshite....masks are worn because the government or businesses tell you to...and the government does it to propagate fear...businesses do it because they think they have to to be open or have been erroneously told as much.
