Two Panel Comic

1: [Blue background. A slightly overweight white man wears a camo bullet proof vest over a black t-shirt. He has a black baseball cap on his head and wears a red bandana over his nose and mouth. He wears a menacing expression on his face.]

Guy: I’m a Proud Boy and I will never stop fighting for true manliness!

2: [Pink background. The Proud Boy now twiddles his fingers, with an abashed expression on his face. His eyes are drawn in an anime style with an anime blush across his nose and cheeks.]

Guy: But I also gotta hide my face because I’m a widdle soft-as-baby-shit chicken.

    Nothing more manly and heterosexual than belonging to a group named after a song in a Disney musical stage play

    I’m so manly I can’t wear a medical mask to save lives. But I sure am willing to wear one to be an absolute shitbag in cowardice.

    In the age of mass surveillance, it might be good to take a page from their behaviors.

    Kinda crazy we’re not all hiding our faces all the time.

      The pandemic sucked but I’m just glad that it’s socially acceptable to wear a mask anywhere in the world now.

        Where I am the pandemic changed nothing about the acceptance of masking. Even during the pandemic I had people asking me to remove my mask.

        Uhh in much of shithole countries (America) you can get shot for wearing a covid mask. Or at least disrespected.

        I’d be publicly shamed if I wore one everywhere.

          Why would you wear one now? Risk of infection is basically zero these days, or at least no one is tracking or worrying about it anymore.

        It’s not pointless you just have to be creative. IR LEDs are cheap and their light is invisible to us but enough light can flood out a camera feed. You can get/build a cheap device that detects these devices’ BLE signatures and further automate from there. (E.g. : use that data to populate a map, then use the map to inform other strategies/hide yourself within a certain range.)

        There’s gotta be other turnkey stuff that walks the line of being offensive while not being conspicuous or doing permanent (physical) damage, I just haven’t come across it yet or it is coming.

        This fight is far from over

    Well it’s either that or they’re hardened criminals who know exactly how not to get caught.

    This is as funny as the Facebook memes conservatives use where a blue hair person says “everything I don’t like is Hitler!”

    Low tier content that is degrading society

      Its not funny?

      What I find funny is your example cluelessly agrees with the comic.

      Reee blue hair (on a person who isnt hiding their choices.)

      Meanwhile we have people cosplaying as surrender flags and wanna be storm troopers… hiding their faces.

      Gotta come armed to the protest and hide my face otherwise the truth might hurt me.

      Its okay snowflake. You’re just as brave and manly as the props and compensation make you think you are.

    They aren’t proud if they are wearing masks. Are even really boys either? Is it all a facade? …

      they want to be approachable to the politicians in DC, so they call themselves “boys”.

      they cover their face to keep the facade up that they are just “big boys”.
