      This is appalling, of course, and I feel conflicted drawing attention to it. No one should have to see this while innocently scrolling along. But it reveals so much about the people who would use an image like this to promote their agenda, we can't ignore it.https://twitter.com/thereal_truther/status/1262443327372156932 …

      This image and others like it have been going around for a while. I included a similar meme (but censored the images) in a recent debunking thread.https://twitter.com/DocMCohen/status/1259951505257324545?s=19 …

      First, let’s quickly visit some other opposition to masks coming from anti-vax/conspiracy circles: 1) Emasculation – aka: real men don’t wear masks, aka: does PPE make you gay? 2) Slavery – aka: face covering is a sign of submission, aka: didn’t slaves cover their faces? 2/ pic.twitter.com/BggAkZkeNu

      It reveals nothing less than the intellectual rot at the core of your movement when you have to rely on the shock value of someone else's horrific oppression to try to make your "struggle" seem real.pic.twitter.com/wU6JbIS33l

      Many of the people holding signs proclaiming a philosophical link to the anti-racism and pro-choice movements are the same ones who dismiss and vote against the priorities of those very movements.pic.twitter.com/Ka0QeVFoI5

      This is peak White Privilege 2020: a sense of entitlement to use the images and slogans of anti-oppression movements you routinely align AGAINST to role-play your own pretend struggle. We could mock it as oppression cosplay if it weren't so fucking disgusting to witness.pic.twitter.com/nDQ2rx4gOp

          That's right. The photo of the idiot with the yellow star is actually pre-pandemic. I realized after tweeting I should have clarified. This movement has hit a new peak (really a new low) in 2020, but the groundwork was laid by anti-vaxxers yrs ago.
