You know what doesn't work? A thin, barely up to standard mass produced placebo that nobody knows how to properly use.
So the question of "do masks work" is a complete distraction because its a useless question. The question that matters is "will the masks used by this populace be effective?" Even if they do work in theory, it doesn't matter in the slightest if the practice is garbage.
Especially if you force people to mask who don't want to, because they're unlikely to go past the bare minimum.
The issue is that I don't like how people who don't want masks or vaccines feel the need to justify themselves by saying that they "don't work". No, dude, even if they did work, there is no justification for forcing people.
That's just splitting hairs though. They don't work because in order for them to work you'd need both theory and practice to function.
Just the same, 95% of the masks worn during this pandemic literally do not work. They say on the box they don't, they have never been capable of doing so, and are just a placebo. Specific, quality masks can work, but those were never on the table for even those who took it dead serious.
