I said that we shouldn't accept masks because they'd force us to wear them, and that this plus the lockdown would be used as leverage to get us to accept other things with the promise to return back to normal. I said that we'd have our privacy invaded, and our bodily autonomy. I said that it would probably lead to some kind of mandatory vaccination. Those people said "it's just a mask, what's all the fuss about? There won't be any mandatory vaccinations, don't be stupid".
