This weekend, I met remotely with three Americans I've stayed in touch with since they moved back to the US.

Our discussion turned, of course, to current events.

I mentioned how one "easy" way to resist/protest is through the wearing of masks (because the US is no longer involving itself in public health, because of surveillance, because of mask bans, because it's a way to help protect and support the vulnerable, because it's a show of solidarity).

I was met with a beat of silence and then a swift change in topic.

@Furthering

I mask all the time when I go into buildings (not outdoors unless it's really crowded) and have done so since the beginning of Covid. And I have to say that turning masking into a subcultural activity is understandable, but bad.

@richpuchalsky I would love it if it were a mainstream cultural activity and normalized.
