How come nobody in NYC had an issue wearing face-masks after 9/11 yet we have people who can't handle them 19 years later?

Question

The shot below is taken from the film 'And Then There Was Quiet: New York After 9/11' which was shot shortly after September 11, 2001. Many of the film shows people in NYC wearing face-masks due to the heavy dust and debris that covered the city after the towers fell. 19 years later however Americans can't handle wearing face-masks. Shows how far America has fallen, due to the right.

Update:

I can see exactly how far America has fallen.

Probably  because Covid-19 is not a Muslim matter.

Although 9/11 was a shock to the American psyche in reality it was a small problem, easily remedied.
Covid19 is still to be defined.
A pandemic, a worldwide conspiracy or a once a century anomaly that'll be over soon, nobody knows.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion"

Forcing people to embrace Covidism and wear masks is the same as forcing people to embrace Christianity and wear crucifixes. The government's mask mandates are unconstitutional, as they promote the establishment of the religion of Covidism.

People chose to wear face masks back then because it was better than inhaling heavy dust and debris.

Today there is no heavy dust and debris.  Just a respiratory virus with a 99.9% survival rate, and much higher for the young and healthy.  The ability to breathe fresh air and have normal human interactions outweighs that overhyped "risk."

The difference is night and day. You don't understand that, because you are stupid.
