You created your account one day ago and it's name is even an anti-mask anti-government slogan.
This site had just been overwhelmed with people who don't want discourse or even to change minds. They want to make their fringe views seem more popular than they really.
The worst part is all the effort people have to do finding studies to disprove you while all you do is spout unverified conclusions.
I know it's against the rules to attack a poster but I'll risk it.
- thenewnormal 5y agoYou understand what ad hominem means, right? Don't worry, I've been around for many years. I just go through periods of not having an account, to control the time I waste online. I've seen most of those studies before. Many of them are not even peer-reviewed papers, they all contain big caveats like "these results were not very conclusive and more research is needed", and many use very simple methodologies (eg, like assuming that some reduction in aerosol particles of a certain size will certainly result in a useful reduction in emitted viral particles). Research labs have access to viral samples (it doesn't have to be Covid). I am sure that no-one has measured how many aerosol-bourne viral particles are stopped by cloth masks, because the results would be quite damning.
