Therefore the best answer is for YOU and others like YOU to exercise YOUR right to decide to stay at home and quit trying to impose and mandate YOUR desires on others.

Now if YOU would like to politely request the other pilot in the cockpit wear a mask, then do the responsible and mature thing of contacting the other pilot prior to the scheduled flight. This does two things, it allows YOU and the other to decide how to best make this work and it prevents all the other people (in the thousands BTW) who will be effected by any conflict YOU have caused by YOUR insistence of mask wearing from also being penalized by YOU.

YOUR decisions have a far greater reach than the simple spreading of the virus, but YOU are so myopic about it, YOU probably never noticed.

Best solution, stay home and stay away from the general population. That will spread one less potential virus.
