Thanks to ☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆ @yogthos@lemmy.ml for this one, I saw posted here. Wasn’t expecting to see a comic so perfectly nail it.
Edit: Aaaand now I see that this was basically posted yesterday, but as a link to the xcancel thread about it. So I guess here’s the direct link to the comic at least.
I really appreciate the citations the author included at the bottom and they’re well worth skimming. One of which I’ll point out below, though it may be somewhat tangential to reasons for masking, I think most here would agree it’s worth highlighting:
- Like bombs and bullets, COVID is used as a tool of genocide. Israel denies Palestinians vaccines and medical treatments, destroys Palestinian COVID research and treatment centers, assassinates Palestinian COVID experts, and creates conditions ideal for COVID spread. Most Palestinians don’t have access to the $1-$2 N95’s that Westerners take for granted.
