A Montreal restaurant worker says she was forced to quit after her boss told her she can’t wear a mask at work. The restaurant says it doesn't require worker...
You’d be amazed at the stupid shit people complain about.
Not even amazed, but third-party embarrassed for these people.
What’s the complaint even about? I feel like it’s a younger sibling of racists who “complain” about people wearing turbans for no reason other than that they are racist.
I think it’s people that have an emotional need that they can’t admit is emotional…
“I don’t like wearing masks, it makes me sad/uncomfortable”
And admitting that shows emotions and vulnerability. Can’t be vulnerable! I also don’t want to be the only person not wearing masks because then I’ll feel guilty and other feelings. Can’t be vulnerable!!!
So they have to try and make up bullshite to try and make it SEEM logical. So they invent logic to rationalize it.
But it’s stupid because it’s a valid emotion that needs to be dealt with emotionally, but they don’t want to be talked to as if they’re being emotional….
In this case, I’d bet the complainants bought into the nonsense US politicization of PPE, rather than whatever they claimed was the problem. (A Deaf person who was attempting to lip-read might have reasonable grounds for complaining about opaque facemasks, but not all facemasks.)
