Research out of the National Library of Medicine shows that people are more willing to open their minds to another perspective if they feel the other person understands where they’re coming from. And you probably can understand some of where anti-maskers are coming from. Masks are hot. They are itchy. They start to smell. They can get expensive to restock. They are annoying to remember to pack. The rules around them keep changing. If you can show an anti-masker that you, too, have thought about those things, then they might be willing to hear what you have to say. Show common ground before discussing difference of opinion.
