It's almost like masks haven't helped at all

This board fricking sucks at posting links.

Mask advocates are losing the great mask debate.

Correct. Someone posted a link on here the other day to a study of 300 people who had tested positive for covid. 85% said they had worn their masks religiously. 15% said occasionally. Bottom line, they all got it anyway..

So basically mask don't work, but we already knew that!

Mask requirements are preceding spikes in cases. Can't necessarily prove cause and effect, but it's alot of anecdotal evidence.

Look. Masks can help, and anyone with a lick of common sense and logic can deduce that. The reality is that people cannot assume a mask is 1) perfect and 2) that people are going to use them right (idiots only covering their mouth and not their nose).
In the end, it leads to people relaxing too much and so seems like it is ineffective. Reality is that it likely extended the lulls on those curves, albeit they eventually spike up.
People bitching about the mandates I get. I shouldn't be forced to wear one, but you SHOULD wear one out of respect when it is reasonable and possible to do so.

Who determines what is reasonable and shouldn't you also respect the wishes of those who think masks are not effective so in turn they don't wear one? If restaurant A has a no mask policy and you want to go eat there and wear a mask, expect for eating purposes, are you saying those unmasked people SHOULD wear one out of respect to you and Dr. Fauci?

How do you explain the success of countries like South Korea and Japan in dealing with COVID - where proper masking-wearing and hygiene was already embedded in the culture?

Can you link this? I'd love to share it.

"Respect"
"Reasonable"

You do. I can't stand Fauci, and believe him to be an utter idiot. I simply am stating that when you feel it is reasonable, you should wear one. It's better than nothing and may help others.
That said, mandates sadly only have the opposite effect.

"Hey guys! I got two examples to your 12!!!!1"
Because, like the OP states (not to mention you answered your own question), masks are not the end all be all of how the virus spreads.
