As I said to him and the few others that agreed with that, it is like dealing with anti-vaxxers when it comes to these people, probably more so akin to the climate change debate being more about what political beliefs you have rather than listening to science.
I mean go for it, attempt to reason with people who refuse to wear masks, spend your time and energy politely and reasonably trying to reach them, but in my long experience in the skeptic community online, you rarely are able to convince people to change their minds when it comes to something that in the US has become a badge of defience and "freedom" when it comes to those who refuse to wear masks in public.

Try debating with them nude...tell them no way society and the government should tell you what to wear!!!
Maybe their folly will sink in then
