In this thread:
A number of comments were removed for “advocating against masking”. I don’t see that the comments removed advocate for anyone else to stop masking - they answered the question posed by the OP, and are (mostly) not substantially different from the answers that were allowed.
“Advocating for not masking”:
- Is (mostly) not what’s happening here. If the question is acceptable to ask, why isn’t it acceptable to answer?
- Hasn’t been previously communicated as a rule.
I’m mostly just salty because my comment got removed, and I don’t feel like I broke any rules. If that’s the rule going forward, I’ll abide by it.
I’d just like to say, being the OP of that thread - I didn’t know it was on the level of hardline position that asking a question would provoke such. If I’d known the stance was “masking should be done” and advocating to the contrary can get your post removed, I wouldn’t have asked it in the open-ended way I did, as it’s just baiting at that point; to be clear, I don’t know if that is “the stance”, but if it is, it would be odd for me to pose the question in the way I did.
If there is an “official” stance on masking, I’d be happy to know what it is. Main reason I was asking in the first place was to better understand where others with similar ideology are at on the issue, this far in, (and especially what their reasons are that I could consider for my own reasoning on it) as I hadn’t heard much on it in a while.
There was nothing wrong with your post, it just got locked because ppl had some heated gamer moments wishing covid on others, and it was turning toxic.
