Genuinely, I think it's probably because they feel a little guilty when they see you wearing one, and that's uncomfortable for people, so they respond by taking it out on you.

Yeah, you're probably right. They see someone wearing a mask, they feel bad, they decide the person wearing the mask made them feel bad.
