During Covid they were talking about letting people back on planes if everyone wore a mask. I told a friend that's ridiculous, the total volume of air will be filled with corona virus, the mask doesn't stop the virus it just projects the virus upwards.

Friend lost his shit. Called me a science denier and legitimately thought I was a right wing lunatic. The guy is a Staff software engineer at Meta. We rarely talk anymore which is too bad but also maybe for the best.
