Businesses like In-N-Out Burger are banning staff from wearing masks (unless they provide a medical note)

@luckytran

Considering the huge amount of harm masks has done to the deaf community, who rely on lip reading, and the excessive nature of mask wearing in general, I have to say I support this.

inb4: Obviously masks serve a purpose, particularly in a medical setting. But improper mask use (particularly all day use of the same mask and reuse) has the potential to spread disease as well. So even from the perspective of reducing the spread of germs its not a particularly good choice given the down sides IMO.

@barney LOL typical... I am literally a research scientist who spent the last 2 years researching COVID... god your a fucking moron with this shit

I never said masks dont prevent disease transmission, in fact, I made it quite clear that when handled properly they absolutely do.

I see you totally ignored the immense harm to the deaf masks cause, which was the main point... good job at being a talking head and not even addressing the points raised, excellent job indeed.
