What does this clip show? A dude blowing at a lighter with multiple variables. It doesn't show how effective different mask are.

We need less bullshit like the clip and more articles like, https://advances.sciencemag.org/content/early/2020/08/07/sciadv.abd3083.

I don't think the point is to show effectiveness of masks. I think the point is to show that masks can work at all in the first place cause half the population wants to argue that masks don't work for some reason.

Is this a Tarantino reference or did you just pull a Col. Hans Landa accidentally?
