Wear a covid mask. Sounds simple, but the issue was everywhere. You could say it was history’s most destructive example of toxic masculinity, especially when the protests kicked off and people were (and still do) denying any damage had been occurring due to that.
I made a big deal when it happened because I for one hate dress codes, yet dress codes were and still are somehow fine and something you’re not allowed to argue against, all the while something that was actually practical as well as small was like peoples’ kryptonite, so I remain in a lowkey boycott over dress codes if the business was apathetic to antiviral measures.
Safety glasses actually work, the face rags were security blankets. And I’m not claiming N95s did nothing, i know they helped. literal cloth rags don’t stop fuck all, they can’t even stop dust, ask anyone ever tried that method for shoveling grain.
For a lot of people it seemed that way. Seeing a protest of Canadian truck drivers who didn’t want to wear the “face diapers” made it seem like they were acting on an outright masculine honor culture. It’s something that softened my previous view that Canada was living under an unlucky streak of bad authority. Now I look at them and think “well no wonder”.

Is that really an example of toxic masculinity? A LOT of Karens shrieked about having to wear them.
It was the reason for some guys, for sure. The same crowd who refuse to wear safety glasses under any circumstances were pretty anti-mask.
Seatbelts
One of my idiot uncles cut the seatbelt out of his car.
Helmets as well
oh god, and the same people end up almost deaf by 40. i wear hearing protection to almost every public event.

They seem to help surgeons, what was the difference?
Surgeons change them every 20 minutes, and it’s not to help them.
Then why wear something, if it’s actually the opposite of help, especially during something crucial like surgery?
Read that again, captain strawman
Sure, just did. Is having read it again supposed to be a game changer?
