Mask study Shows People Who Wear Mask Are More Violent, Less Moral, Meaner

At their core, masks are a tool to induce disinhibition. We use physical masks to counteract the psychological masks.

A mask might not really conceal your identity but it has a few powerful effects:

Makes it harder for you to be identified
Conceals your emotions and reduces the amount of eye contact you make
Lets you feel/think like a different person
Helps you avoid guilt, shame, and embarrassment
Brings to the surface parts of your personality you might otherwise hide
In groups, masks can be dehumanizing, leading to groupthink and extreme behavior
So, how will society change when everyone wears a mask all the time?

Expect tips to go down. And fewer people will stop to help a stranger. People will be more likely to verbally attack others who annoy them. Voices will be raised more easily. Jokes will become crueler. Trust will collapse as we assume others are wearing masks to hide something.

The psychological effects could be devastating for a country trying to get back to normal. Strangers will seem stranger than ever before. Considering that summer is approaching and people will also wear sunglasses, the anonymity of a completely covered face could lead to extreme decadence and depravity.

That people will behave differently in a masked society is almost a given. The question is, how long it will take to get back to normal after the masks come off?
