Reupping this for consideration, I think it's too late- even if there were some physiological differences it's become so political there's no hope of addressing it now. But it's worth knowing about if you have a hard time masking- try a bunch, try a PAPR, might change things.

I continue to feel the "if you find masks uncomfortable you're a bad person and should feel bad" response directed at people who are ardently pro-mask and trying to find a solution to be extraordinarily unhelpful and counterproductive. There are options- and we need even more.
@SexyCyborg you’re probably right, my only counterpoint is that i’m really mad about the sick kids
@SexyCyborg although i’m hopefully not directing any abuse at pro mask people
