Maybe, but you know what else is a dick move? Ignoring the mental health side of post-COVID disability.

A lot of people had their lives turned upside down by the pandemic response. Or had legitimate medical reasons for mask exemptions, and spent months having to justify their masklessness and getting shouted at by people who thought they were doing it for contrarian reasons.

Some of us now carry huge burdens of trauma.
