I will forever remember which side of the fence many people have chosen.

I don't think it's true that the one side (the mask advocates/stay at home people) are more caring than the people saying that it's time to return to normal and limit the economic devastation, massive job losses, despair and loneliness brought on by extended self isolation. Businesses are not going to stay afloat unless they can operate at capacity again. Young people need to be in the physical schools around their friends. We need fun things like concerts, football games, 4th of July parades, family gatherings, church services, weddings, parties, etc for our quality of life.
We ALL have done our part to slow the spread while the medical community figured out how to treat this virus and got a better understanding of it. We now know that this virus is not nearly as deadly as once feared which is wonderful news. People have grown frustrated with the "mask nazis" or "the maskholes" as I've heard them referred to.
Were you aware that Antifa wore masks over their faces BEFORE this whole pandemic even started? Those are the folks who were setting cop cars on fire, throwing bricks at police officers, looting businesses, making the streets unsafe in many of our cities across the country. Do you think that they wear those masks because they care about you?
