I mean, it helped teach me. It's not that I didn't actually understand it before, it's that I hadn't internalized it (and how selfish it is to go around getting other people sick). My dad is one of the "I never take a sick day!" people and when you hear that enough as a kid, the "merit" of that sticks in your bones. It took me several years as an adult to really believe that I wasn't selfish or lazy if I took a sick day.
Did it change your dad? Just out of curiosity.
I am interested, but ultimately it's irrelevant, because our subjective experiences don't really hold a candle to the entire "anti mask" movement, the culture you're describing here, and slightly different but akin to that cultural aspect, the idea of "hustling" to chase fortune.
And that's just the philosophy of it. There's also the millions that most certainly just don't understand shit about germs, mechanisms of how illness spreads, etc.
Nah, unfortunately, he went in the other direction. He's one of the ridiculous anti-mask kine people.
