So you probably aren't human, since you care more about other species than yours. Who cares of people with conditions, who cares about poor people, who cares about fragile ones, who cares about your grandma or your mother or the one friend who will have a bad case of COVID even with completely healthy immune system, right? You don't have any moral "spinal column", you are just a egoistic and egocentric person who doesn't care of anyone except yourself. You are not on any higher moral ground, you're just selfish. And even as a selfish person, you would make the worst decision about masks and vaccine, since your survival probability are higher if you vaccinate and put a mask on. So, it's not about control, it's not about your "freedom", it's not about health, it's about your whims
whiners. a generation of whiners. you are one reason i used to gravitate towards East Asian men - most of them don't whine. Whiny people are beyond irritating, but a whiney man needs to hand in his damned man-card. I am a healthnut who loves logic and objectivity. So, I know that most disorders are self-inflicted - often by decision after decision over many years. If you treat your body (or environment) like a cesspool, YOU dug your own grave and don't deserve my pity or help. If you lose your car or home, that is bad. But, you only get one body and mind, so if you mess that up....your had the wrong priorities. A 101 year old man got covid and lived/recovered. I don't care about YOU because I mind my own business. Your #1 duty in life is to care for youself and if you can't do that, you've failed. Just because you lack discipline, doesn't mean that I should suffer. Believe it or not, I have my own problems that I need to deal with. You handle your own problems, mr. whiner.
tldr: they are sexist, racist, ignorant of the fact that not anyone has the same privilege as you and you think it is ok to put others in danger just because you don't want to wear a mask.
