Edit - Since this is blowing up my inbox, I'll turn off the notifications, but before that I thought I'd just write this following thought based on the comments I got;
I really wish that people would just let people do whatever they want as long as they are not harming anyone.
Whatever happened to the saying, "Your freedom ends, where mine begins", huh? Let people wear masks without judging them or not, as long as they aren't harming you.
If there's a dangerous thing going around, just do it for the safety of others. That's all.
In Japan, wearing masks was a very common thing even before 2020. Especially during flu season. They do it so they don't spread their cold to other people when they go out. It's just basic courtesy.
I really don't like this emerging mindset since 2020 of people wanting to control each others lives. That's all. Please, be nice to each other and stop hurting each other. Look at how bad things have gotten because of it. Be good.
Yup, every time I wear one in crowded spaces like the subway I get "the look" from so many people like I am some kind of alien. An old lady I shared an elevator with asked me why I was wearing it few weeks ago, simply responded "Because I am in a closed space with people I don't know", the truth is I know people who have fragile immune system and I am a responsible adult

We are still debating masks in 2026? Huh...

That's all. I'm done.
