This one thought it was okay to destroy Target's mask display.

These guys thought it was okay to assault store clerks who asked that they wear masks. This one got a felony charge for getting physical.

And this one, an older man, wiped his nose on the female clerk's shirt. He got probation, fine and has to undergo "life counseling" Hell he's 68 years old!

No, Not all of it. Not in my state, where it has to do with a killer heat wave and people wearing masks are seriously suffering.

It’s the same here. Stifling humid temperatures of heat. People are getting more temperamental. Either that or the people who are mentally frail are coming undone due to the added stress of having to mask up. I don’t know.
 
I basically blame Facebook and other types of media like it. People have started looking, seeking, craving individual attention. People have started to think their ill-thought out views and opinions to be on par with those who have studied the issues. They are resentful of those who were once respected. Like Andy Warhol predicted, they want their 15 minutes of fame.
 
Personally from a standpoint of being one who has to wear them 8 hrs a day...it gets frustrating. By the end of the day there's been times I've ripped mine off in the van with a vengeance cuz I'm sick to death of them & not being able to breathe. So I get that part of it. It's the refusal to wear them that I think is literally idiotic.

Doctors here say that wearing one of those each and every day for long hours can cause , skin irritation. Do they offer a choice to wear a face shield ?

I haven't experienced any facial irritation. I think where your concerned the shield would be better than nothing but it's usually used in combination with the masks. For no than the amt of time you are likely spending in the mask it definitely wouldn't bother your skin. Also making sure it's clean helps. Along with the fact that I wash my face every night after having it on all day.
 
Yes, wearing a face mask is a major nuisance....especially for those of us who wear glasses, and they begin to fog up. However, considering the alternatives, wearing a mask, and staying away from close contact with others is a far better option than winding up in the hospital.

There are already hospitals that are bringing in refrigerated containers to store the dead....that should be telling people that this crisis is far from winding down. And...as bad as things are now, there are "experts" saying that things will get substantially worse this Fall/Winter.

If there is another lockdown, I hate to think of what the economic impact will be....the stock market wild ride in March/April may be just a precursor to what is coming.

They came up with another style of mask on Amazon that's got a little anti-fog flap. I think it fits over the nose & under the glasses. I don't have that much trouble with mine fogging up. Not sure why.

It’s happening here in Canada also

A man gets harassed for not wearing a mask , gets in his car and hits other cars while driving out in the parking lot.

I have a mask that I faithfully wear in every store and don’t hassle those who don’t. People are losing it. Truly.

Here also. I can't wear a face covering due to a medical condition so I'm supposed to be exempt from having to wear one but in my state it has become No Mask/No Service in stores etc. I haven't been in a store since April.

Last Sat. I drove my mom to the drugstore. I sat in the car getting a 3rd degree sunburn on my arm. In the store mom saw a male customer having a chat with the manager of the store and he was maskless. (The temps were in the nineties). Ma got so furious she cracked. She ripped off her mask and told the manager if the other customer didn't have to wear a mask then she wasn't going to wear one either. And that's what she did.

So, I do think this is motivated by temperature and frustration and is not representative of one's political persuasion. People up here are genuinely suffering from the heat which may be close to 100 today.

Saw that at a London anti-mask protest.
