"" I'm not trying to say masks are the holocaust, I'm simply pointing out why it's bad to force people to wear something like that against their will and try and excuse it by saying things like "it's not that bad" or "it's just a piece of cloth". ""

I will forgive forgive you for not having a brain. /s

Masks protect against the spreading of a potentially deadly virus, people are "forced" to wear these to reduce infecting other people "against their will"! Remember you are violating other peoples right to not be infected by refusing to wear one.

The second picture is something Jews were forced to wear to identify themselves because they were seen as bad or evil, not wearing one could mean they were shot in plain sight.

"I'm simply pointing out why it's bad to force people to wear something like that against their will",

I guess you also appose to handcuffing criminals? Or Nudist that are "forced" to wear clothing when going to a restaurant.

Who says everyone is contagious? Who's making the people who are afraid to get infected go out in public? No-one's "making" them get infected.

Well surely you not ALL raw meat will give you food poisoning, right?

And okay, everyone afraid of getting infected will be fine without food and everyday items that they don’t have

Yes, because Amazon has enough supplies for everyone to stay safe and healthy. It’s not like there’s this thing called supply and demand.

Ya mean where those lovely people hand you your food? Well gee, if the people handing it to them(which is once again, just having everyone wear a mask) isn’t wearing a mask, don’t you think that defeats the purpose a bit?

If I walk around on the street swinging knives at people, is it 100% their fault if they get hit?
I’m aware of how juvenile that argument is, but it’s the same principle. Just don’t wave knives around cuz it’s a hazard.

Not being able to swing knives around isn't an encroachment on everyday life. It's not like I'm saying we should never wash our hands or disinfect things.

For your information, I DO wear multiple masks in public, I don’t see why you can’t wear ONE

It’s not as effective when there’s people like you who won’t wear them.

Please read the title.

I'm not trying to say masks are the holocaust, I'm simply pointing out why it's bad to force people to wear something like that against their will and try and excuse it by saying things like "it's not that bad" or "it's just a piece of cloth".

Then why are you arguing with me?
2 ups, 4y,
4 replies
because your implication that masks and jude stars are comparable in any way past their material is stupid and wrong. it's holocaust remembrance day and youre taking this time to moan about how people want you to do the bare minimum to prevent the spread of a dangerous virus.
1 up, 4y,

I said don't hurt yourself reading too far into it.

So if something can't be "just a piece of cloth", why act like masks are just "pieces of cloth"?
1 up, 4y
imo it's the same thing, but feel free to disagree

yellow stars were used to mark out jews, so people and the state could persecute them, set them as the other. masks are used to prevent the spreading of disease, covid most relevantly. this is analogous to comparing apples and oranges, if you asked me
2 ups, 4y,
1 reply
Who said I was comparing them past their material? Isn't this just about "a piece of cloth"?
2 ups, 4y
so youre making this comparison of masks and jude stars, but youre DEFINITELY NOT trying to imply theres something more to masks than meets the eye, like there is for jude stars, with this 'just a piece of cloth' line, making your comparison completely worthless and vacant? that makes no sense, and is disrespectful regardless of whether youre trivializing the holocaust or not

sorry for saying the same thing twice, my replies werent showing up for some reason and i thought they got purged by big tech
2 ups, 4y
according to you, no, but to everyone with baseline critical thinking skills and the 'tyranny' tag under your meme, yeah. also, i hope you dont mean to imply here that you think the yellow star is only a piece of cloth.
2 ups, 4y
according to you, no, but according to everyone with basic critical thinking skills and the tag of 'tyranny in the description, yeah. actually, your title almost explicitly says theres more to masks than just a piece of cloth, theres just a disclaimer saying you shouldnt think when you read the meme

Wouldn't recommend putting the star there then. You could've put something like the meme I'll put here, It's all good with me, but I don't recommend putting the star next to that, as it can trigger some people I guess.

But that's not the point I'm trying to make.

And people get triggered all the time anyway, it's nothing new.

by 'pushing political correctness', they mean making the lightest criticism possible of someone for putting holocaust symbolism next to a mask and then saying they didn't mean anything when they did that, actually.
