The DPRK guy I follow on Twitter just shits on NK News constantly, so be wary of that site.
Masks, just like the “litterbug” campaign, are a way to offload responsibility and blame onto the working class, responsibility that should fall to the government and companies.
“Well, what’s the alternative??!!”
-List ten things that aren’t masking
You honestly trying to tell me that you’re not making an argument that we don’t have to mask??? Do you mask, for real? You "lol"ed my comment that we have to face unmasked people in mass transit and shops.
Not compared to N95 and surgical masks, no. I’ve seen people wear one-layer cloth masks. Can anyone guarantee that every mask sold in a shop or at home is made according to WHO’s recommendation of three layers of certain fabrics/material?
And this is an argument to not mask to protect vulnerable comrades why?
Only place I could find from a quick search: https://www.reuters.com/article/world/fact-checkoutdated-video-of-fauci-saying-theres-no-reason-to-be-walking-arou-idUSKBN26T2T9/
At least you found a source. I hope that you see that something that happened at month 1 of the pandemic, shared solely on Facebook of all places, shouldn’t be affecting your decisions in any way.
What do you want me to do about it?
Remove insinuations that sick leave and hand sanitising are substitutes for masking. By themselves, they’re fine. But to uses them as an argument that we shouldn’t mask is hella misguided.
But why lie?
Honestly, post a source that the media lied about masks. I can’t believe you’re allowed to post this.
Surgical masks absolutely protect the wearer and more so the people around the wearer.
Where did I say they don’t?
“Those thin masks don’t offer much protection.” This is just misinformation.
We can’t avoid you in mass transit and in the shop
lol
Sociopath level response.
Also I told you about asymptomatic transmission yet your comment remains unedited.
Here’s the internet, I can be a bit aggressive to strangers, send you all PBB and hope you fall on your butt. What depresses me is how so few of my comrades IRL mask. Being the most white cis male person ever, I don’t feel super great being aggressive about masks with a lot of my comrades. Although one can definitely detect an inverse relationship with masking and privilege.
But it’s harddddddddd
There’s so much to unpack here. Most COVID infections are passed from an asymptomatic or pre-symptomatic carrier. Surgical masks absolutely protect the wearer and more so the people around the wearer. But you know what? You can wear an KN95 and above. Hand sanitiser is a pretty low effect remedy when touching is a lower risk danger for a respiratory virus.
restaurants
Careful people can avoid indoor dining. We can’t avoid you in mass transit and in the shop
The media lied to people. First they said masks don’t work, told people not to buy, but then couple of months later there was a mask mandate.
In the first few months of the pandemic, there was a short supply of masks for hospitals. I don’t want to be mean, but this sounds like stuff old white dudes post on Facebook.
I swear I say this out of concern for you, but I would delete your comment as it doesn’t put you in the best light.
I’ve never heard a leftist, much less an ML, use “critical support” to justify allying with fascists. Maybe you can enlighten me. Honestly, I swear to God I’m not being snarky now, I’d like to know. As for Hezbollah, they’re still a liberation anti-colonial movement. I don’t think many MLs actually support Assad, most seem to oppose Western fuckery with Syria. I guess if Berletic fighting in Gaza, I might “critically support” him.
The Hexbear news comm has a “no reactionary source” rule. I guess we can’t all be the same, but reactionary sources are problematic in that 1) they send clinks and views to a fascist, and 2) when the fascists says something on the boundary, there’s yet another pointless battle about the truth of said POV. I guess we shouldn’t care what liberals think, but I imagine that posting a reactionary that shares our views on Ukraine makes non MLs think we’ve lost the plot.
Please stop replying to me
>The New Atlas states that some reactionary military government is good actually
Then no one is going to post that.
I swear to go, it happens all the time.
if you’re just going to completely ignore everything I’m saying
“and go right to insults”. Finish the sentence. “Lib purity” is not being against a guy who’s hard right? Like I can get there’s a case for disagreement, but come on.
You know how streamers make money, right? You know why they produce content, right? Do I need to explain it to you?
I gotta have this exact same argument when The New Atlas states that some reactionary military government is good actually, and people on Hexbear and Lemmygrad are like “oh no the Myanmar junta is anti-American, that’s why we should support them in their bloody civil war”.
You ignored my comment on the global warming and vaccine thing. I honestly don’t find this to be a productive convo if you’re just going to completely ignore everything I’m saying and go to insults of “ultra-left purity shit”.
I honestly didn’t know about the transphobia stuff, but a quick Google search solved that. Would you be OK if requested that Finkelstein not be posted in Hexbear? Anyhow, there’s a blemish over there so let’s let a fascist over here seems a weird retort.
I guess that Lemmygrad has no disengage rule, so I’m blocking
Please don’t reply to me in this post again
You seriously have no qualms sending clicks and fans to a guy who used to write for Infowars? There no one else that we can post??
“Disagree on his politics”? Are you not disgusted by polemics that global warming isn’t real or that vaccines are dangerous?
I can’t believe that I need to have this struggle session every single time someone posts a hard right source.
As a posted before, Brian Berletic is a hard right source. Please don’t post him here. I have a hard enough time trying to decipher what he’s saying is true or not because he has no qualms for bs, including vaccine and global warming skepticism.
I don’t see why that gives you the right to tone police and concern troll a person who has a legitimate fear of death. I think a better answer would be compassion for her.
