I can't stand the morons who ask this question:

[Mortos]

"If masks and vaccines work, why do we still need masks and vaccines?"

Because of you, you fucking idiot.

Covidiots are like pantsless people crapping all over the floor and asking, "If pants and toilets work, why are we sliding around in all of this shit?"

[rickyhall]

1. I tell them, "I ain't afraid of dying, I hate being sick more than stupid people."

[Polybius]

2. I hate "If masks work, how come I can still smell things while wearing one?"

Idiiots.

[amywalk]

16. Tell them, because you're supposed to wipe your ass with toilet paper and not your mask.

[Beartracks]

17. Like the inane "Underwear doesn't stop farts, why would masks stop Covid?"

I pity some people.

[TheFarseer]

20. I was aghast the other day

When someone tried to explain how fart molecules are even larger that virus molecules. I asked if I should cover my mouth when I cough or just cough all over them cause apparently covering a cough wouldn’t work.

[LiberalFighter]

3. Two rebuttal questions to that.

Did you wear your mask when you were supposed to and did you get fully vaccinated?

Did you see everyone wear their mask when they were supposed to and did everyone get fully vaccinated?

[IronLionZion]

4. If vaccines are so good how come we have lots more cases now?

and they feel so smug about it thinking they've owned the libs even though they are actually owning themselves. They love providing all sorts of proof as to why it "doesn't work" but only if you use their definition of "work". Masks let in the virus but keep out oxygen. So if you can breathe, your mask doesn't work.

8. My better half has worked in ORs for ages.....

It's her thing. Even though she teaches now, she can never fully escape it. She has dreams where she's working in surgery and loved "the big belly cases". She and her colleagues were masked for hours on end. Hours. And yet the "lack of O2" doesn't seem to be a problem for countless surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses and scrub techs. I've used that to refute the "I can't breath!" argument more than once. Invariably it's followed by crickets or the occasional "FREEDUM!!!"

Dear god, people are dumb. Just f'ing dumb. Ugh.

[paleotn]

10. A corollary argument is....

OK, so masks don't work. Tell you what, the next time you have surgery, your surgical team should just go mask free? How do you feel about that? Crickets..........

[halfulglas]

13. Ha, ha. I had dental work this year.

Two weeks and 6 weeks after my second vax shot. Staring up at the dentist and tech and hygienist (for the cleaning) and thinking to myself, Please don't let that mask slip. Even though they were vaxed, I wanted that backup. I might have fainted if one of them coughed, even an ordinary cough.

11. Fact Checks on the unlicensed dude in the vaping video

his videos were blocked on facebook but apparently not on Youtube

[Demobrat]

5. If you are vaccinated why do you care if I'm not?

Because when the next earthquake hits I may need the hospital bed your stupid ass is lying in.

See, I can’t prevent the earthquake.

Goddess I hate these people.

6. if seat belts work

what do you car if I drive drunk?

[twodogsbarking]

7. Don't let the morons get you down.

[Bleacher Creature]

9. That pisses me off too, but nowhere near as much as when I hear "it's a personal issue."

Your vaccination status ceases to be personal when you step one foot into society. If you want to quarantine until the end of the pandemic, and have everything delivered to your front porch on a contactless basis, feel free to keep calling it a personal. Otherwise, they all need to STFU and get the shot.

[NNadir]

12. Nice analogy. n/t,

[AllaN01Bear]

14. my rant . if i have it , i dont want to give it to u and then you give it to your 90 yo relative

that kills them. i also worry about myself. end run.

[tanyev]

15. Or idiot Gov. Abbott, who keeps doubling down on "personal responsibility".

Personal responsibility is NOT WORKING, and that’s why we need mandates.

[forgotmylogin]

18. That's like "If seatbelts work, why do I have to wear it every time?"

They only work if you USE them!
