Read the error again.  It's saying that the unit "-.mount" is masked.


unicorn:~$ systemctl status -.mount
systemctl: invalid option -- '.'
Hint: to specify units starting with a dash, use "--":
      systemctl [OPTIONS...] {COMMAND} -- -.mount ...
unicorn:~$ systemctl status -- -.mount
● -.mount - /
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/fstab; generated)
   Active: active (mounted) since Sun 2020-07-19 22:05:16 EDT; 2 days ago
    Where: /
     What: /dev/sda7
     Docs: man:fstab(5)
           man:systemd-fstab-generator(8)


Apparently this unit refers to the root file system.  I have no idea
why it's masked for you, but that's where I'd start looking.
