- JeremyNT 7y agoThe idiotic meme that "masks don't protect you from getting the virus" is incredibly frustrating. I know H/N loves binary thinking, but the either/or fallacy is harmful and dangerous, especially in this scenario. People fall into it with the age-based impact of the virus too: young people feel completely immune, so why care? The same with masks: they don't protect you 100%, so people just mentally consider them worthless, and then there are dozens of HN posts repeating the misinformation in short order.
