Where do you live where this is government mandated?

If the anti-maskers respected the rights of others around them as much as they insist on others respecting their rights, this would be nearly a non-issue.

I still insist you wear chaps on top of pants or your short trousers. Pants are fashion, chaps protect.

I really don't think people have changed in 100 years, they will always complain. We just need to do it anyways.

Generally, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. In the case of masks, I want to see very strong evidence that masks are very necessary, and other approaches wouldn't have similar or better results with lower change to human tradition. So far, I haven't seen that at all. The scientific evidence that masks are effective or necessary is weak. Alternate approaches (eg. wearing a mask if you're symptomatic, staying at home if you're symptomatic) may be just as effective.

The examples you cite have roots in human tradition, and have been established for many years, mostly with strong evidence.

At least in those cases, that “freedom” usually kills only them when things go wrong.

But even so, we can consider seatbelts as a necessary wearable/accessory for car use, which is also a recent development (cars and driving). Masks are different in that they affect people going on about doing things people did for millenia without requiring a mask.

It contrasts with professed love of freedom, but humans are always creatures of paradox.

Killing someone is not a scientifically substantiated harm either. Of course we harm the other person's health (that's objective), but that in itself is only bad in the sense that "life is good" and "we should respect life / not kill". And that is not a scientific argument but a moral one. The universe doesn't care either way.

That there's a scientific proof that harm is being done by an action.

But harm is a moral term, and science is not about moral judgements. It can help inform them, but the guidelines for what is "harm" or "good" come from morality ultimately.

E.g. what is "good for society" is based on a value judgement / decision by said society based on its goals, what it wants to conserve or change, etc.

Science can tell you that X technique is more productive for example. But whether "more productivity" is desired is a matter of social values/priorities, not a scientific matter.

There is however a long history and tradition of humans wearing clothing to cover their genitals. Even very primitive societies have this norm, and it has pretty obvious reasons behind it.

Instead of projecting arrogant puffery, why don’t you think about the potential consequences of prioritizing your comfort and self aggrandizement to people whose lives are put in danger.

I have a neighbor who unknowingly was infected early on and likely infected several of her elderly clients, most of whom are now dead. She is devastated... think about how you will feel if you did the same thing, without the innocence of being ignorant.
