They both say it’s unnecessary for vaccinated people, and the first one directly calls cloth masks a last resort when nothing better is available.
You can wear your security blanket if you want though, it’s a free country.
You linked to advice that says:
“Generally, if you are up to date on your COVID-19 vaccinations, you do not need to wear a mask in outdoor settings. Check your local COVID-19 hospital admission level for recommendations on when to wear a mask indoors and additional precautions you can take to protect yourself from COVID-19. If you are immunocompromised or more likely to get very sick from COVID-19, learn more about how to protect yourself.”
That just isn’t the same thing as saying it’s unnecessary for vaccinated people.
Those words don’t mean the thing you say they mean.
Can you at least come up with better insults than security blanket?
I think the worse part of the pandemic was realizing that anti-maskers and the like have 0 creativity or humor and just how tiresome hearing the same 4 insults over and over was. It was like having an item not scan at the register and the customer say “it must be free” for the 30th time that day… But on a national scale.
Like you could call masks face huggers and make fun of people about to get a chest burster. You could call them stale air enthusiasts. You can call them breath checkers, mint reminders, mobile napkins. Possibilities are endless!
But no, we gotta put up with the whole anti-mask crowd and the like not only spreading misinformation and germs. But also being so un-creative and such sheep that they can only parrot the same 4 insults on rotation. Like at least make me chuckle or smirk instead of just boring me.
Is it really too much to ask for the anti-mask crowd and similar movements to just bring their game up a little bit above facebook mom minion level humor? I really don’t think I’m asking for much here considering crazy conspiracy people in the early 2000’s had some pretty funny zingers they’d dish out, and nearly every insult I got was unique. I miss that
I’m not anti-mask. I wore one, a medical mask until I could get enough N95s to cycle mind you because I’m both literate and care about results over appearances, until I got the vaccine, and then I stopped, like a reasonable informed adult not engaging in security theater.
But the immuno-compromised are of course welcome to their needed N95s, since liberal nations don’t have the balls or desire to actually protect their most vulnerable citizens with a universal vaccination mandate.

Once again. Masks were not for your own protection, they were mostly for the protection of others from you.
So… If you took your mask off at the earliest convenience, once you were reasonably safe, it’s very hard to take your concern for the immuno-compromised particularly seriously.
The fact that you self-describe your actions as that of a “reasonable informed adult” makes me wonder if you even understood other people’s motivations at all.
