Yesterday I started reading your post, and even though I agree with every word in it, I just could not finish it. My heart was pounding and my fists were clenched in rage, until I decided that it was not worth it. But the message you wanted to convey couldn't let me go, so I just had to come back to it. Good thing I did.
The most important part for me is in the beginning, where you talk about unity. Regardless how you interpret the virus and all the information surrounding it, I belive one thing to be more obvious than anything: the proponents and critics of masks are tearing each other up on social media! Granted, they might just as well tear each other up over other issues, but what I'm gathering is, this yet another attempt to create a ridiculous notion that further divides us in order to be ruled more easily.
The other thing is, all the human rights in the world won't be able to keep someone from stabbing me with a needle (or putting a bullet in my head) if push comes to shove. Well, I'll try not to be the one to do the pushing, but that may mean I'd have to run, hide, and all that. For now though, I'll try not to get too upset.
