Worse than anti-maskers? At least someone wearing a valved mask is reducing the risk that he/she will get COVID in the first place and, thus, become a spreader. Masks that don't filter exhalations can still contribute to reducing R0.

Anti-maskers mostly don't acknowledge COVID as a risk. Valve-wearers do acknowledge that COVID is a risk, but choose to disregard others' health anyway. One is dumb, but the other is malicious.

there's also people who wear valved masks and don't know about their ineffectiveness.

and then there's people who rage at others for wearing valved masks, even if the valves are properly capped. My wife's had to deal with a few dickheads like that.
