2 years into COVID-19, some remain in complete isolation

Bro, this is a bad faith discussion that is sensationalizing words I said.
Everyone is still experiencing great trauma and the fact is that trauma makes us all act in ways that maybe don't correspond with our internalized view of ourselves. For some people this means unmasking in public places in an attempt to feel in control again, and unfortunately this is done at the expense of the immune-compromised and children.
I never said anything about empathy and never called someone a sociopath. I said if you don't want to wear a mask you should be forthcoming about the reason and consequences. If this is how you choose to interpret my words as meaning anti-maskers lack empathy or other buzzwords, then maybe do some self-exploration about why. My words clearly hit a nerve with you, but like, that's not my problem. It's yours.
