You do see people refusing to wear masks, I'm at a cafe (need internet) and people don't have masks on extremely rudely right now. Even thought there are sign asking them too.

In my opinion, the issue with this collectivist society attitude is, very few people think for themselves unless they're explicitly told what to do. This has been the issue in Tokyo and Japan in general, it's wear masks, social distance, but get on a packed commuter train. People just do it, although it makes no practical sense and everyone knows it's stupid, it's just done.

Look at the case numbers in Tokyo though, not going well.
