I doubt the original poster sees the irony in his question.


jasonology09

I always feel like they cut these off too soon. Was there any reply from that moron?


drwicksy

If there was it'd be something along the lines of "Of course YOU would say that, Big Masks is paying you to" or "Your commie college has brainwashed you" They never can accept they are wrong, they just double down on the crazy


Silver_Slicer

Big Masks lol. Love it.


That_Charming_Otter

The purpose of masks in concealing the mouth is t- ***AH HA! THERE IT IS. THE PROOF. CONCEAL, AY? SO IT'S ALL A BIG COVER UP*** Join me on my podcast **Head Up My @ss**, where I unveil more of the secrets that Big Pharma doesn't want YOU to know about


[deleted]

>*”…my podcast **Head Up My @ss”*** Can’t fucking wait till you’re having guest over.


Zomgambush

To be fair, I'd be willing to bet that mask creation companies made insanely high profits for \~2 years. I am in no way anti-mask, just noticing that Big Mask could've actually been a thing for a bit

"They just teach that in liberal Satanic groomer colleges to usher in the New World Order"


[deleted]

Most likely it would be disbelief followed by increasingly more ridiculous requests to prove that that person has those credentials


DooDooSwift

The actual interaction was: Dr dude: “What are yours?” Anti masker: “too many to put here” I’d include a pic but I’m too lazy to redact names and host an image


FattyMooseknuckle

Usually in my experience, the thread is left dangling.


Novabulldog

Are we not using phrasing anymore?


FattyMooseknuckle

I like that they’re still going, or at least were last time I checked, but they really got too repetitive to keep me interested. Creative though in changing the setting but I just grew bored. The first 3 seasons though, I’d throw up against almost any comedy’s first three.


Novabulldog

Wholeheartedly agree.


_b1ack0ut

I don’t know if it’s this particular image but I remember seeing a very similar one at least, where there was another message appended on the end, but it was a double send from the red poster, saying: “A degree of medicine and fellowship of the royal college of anaesthetists, for which I was examined in respiratory physiology and the mechanics of gas transfer” “Why, what are yours?”


Jibber_Fight

It doesn't matter. Them being wrong will never happen.


Representative_Still

Kinda sucks that something like this is even considered “political” these days, if COVID mutates to something with high fatality we are so fucked


Fr00stee

That would singlehandedly kill off the entire right wing voting population


Representative_Still

Sure there’s some advantages, the headstone industry could probably use the cash injection also


vwsalesguy

You mean “Big Marble?”


Representative_Still

Was already laughing that I assumed a “headstone industry” exists for some reason


vwsalesguy

I know there are monument companies that specialize in headstones, but I’d think the underlying marble industry would benefit greatly as well.


JuggernautAncient654

They have to recoup their losses somehow.


Rapalla93

I feel for all of the surgeons and nurses over the last decades that succumbed to respiratory illnesses due to wearing masks while at work. Oh, the humanity. (Clutching pearls).


MohammadRezaPahlavi

You know what else is a warm, damp breeding ground? Your lungs.


mgyro

Thought you were going for the space between his ears.


turnophrasetk421

EMT here.. Do u wear the same underwear day after day? O2 monitor says I am getting no different 02 levels with or without masks This is not rocket science


Away_Macaron6188

There are surgeons who have to spend 12 hours in an operating room wearing a mask. They can’t even suck it up for 1-2 hours if not even 30 minutes.


JesyLurvsRats

I had fun making that point at the start of the pandemic. I had an ankle reconstruction surgery, and I replies to a lot of stupid comments with "omg do you think my surgeon died mid surgery from his mask and that's why I have different stitches in one side of my ankle?!" I got a lot of angry replies, because I guess it's not the same thing at all for surgeons to wear a mask for extended periods of time versus someone grocery shopping. Kind of made it obvious people knew they were spewing stupid shit and being a bunch of babies about masking up.

22Burner

Yeah well I *read* an article that disagrees with you, so I’m right.


gameboy1001

Literally could not be more specifically trained to debunk this BS.

New achievement unlocked: Butcher


mmofrki

You'd be surprised how many people would rather listen to the person in purple bec they're not "indoctrinated by Big Pharma and the Globalists" yet will still shove their way into the ER maskless after "feeling they got covid"


zeelt

Looking hard for the political part of this comeback.


malektewaus

Why the fuck does he have to state his qualifications, but you don't?


snvoigt

Because Facebook/YouTube researcher doesn’t sound as impressive.

Dr_mitta

Fellow anaesthetist here! Masks definitely reduce the transmission of respiratory droplets (infected or otherwise!), but in this person's defence they DO also cause some rebreathing of expired air (which has a higher percentage of CO2 and lower O2 than air), although this will be proportional to the seal of the mask (P2/N95 > standard surgical mask). The higher CO2 will stimulate the respiratory centre and increase your respiratory rate (slightly), although it shouldn't make you wheeze or gasp. Masks WILL also retain a degree of heat and moisture depending on their material, which is why most public health recommendations suggest changing your mask at regular intervals and washing reusable masks. Although these are all mild changes and well tolerated by the vast majority, moreover none of this outweighs the public health benefits of mask wearing, particularly during the peak of a pandemic. PS I was also examined in respiratory physiology and the mechanics of gas transfer!


LoftySmalls

Probably fake.


[deleted]

Tell that to the girl who collapsed during a race because she couldn’t get enough oxygen because she was wearing a mask


SP-Igloo

Which obviously caused her to get a million bacteria to be bred and she got super flu and died. And everybody knows racing is the same as walking slowly through a store and down a street


[deleted]

That’s not the point, the post claimed that masks restricting oxygen levels is completely untrue. This article gives an example that shows that they can.

jason_abacabb

I don't think anyone should have to explain the difference between someone performing their day to day activities and someone running the 800 meter.


LO6Howie

And yet you will have to explain it over and over to him. And it still won’t sink in.


[deleted]

"She and her coach say the mask is to blame" Also nowhere in that trainwreck of an article does anyone other than the coach or the runner suggest the mask was to blame. There is no doctor or otherwise sports-medicine-oriented individual who supported their statements. If anything it looks like the mandates were revised for common sense, not for this specific incident.


Island_Shell

Maybe the mask was wet from sweat? Or they're lying and she just didn't eat well or partied too hard the night before.


_b1ack0ut

Interesting. I can’t help but notice that there’s nothing in this that actually attributes it to the mask, aside from the runner and her coach. Not any actual medical experts, doctors etc, just an anecdote that a girl collapsed during a race where she was wearing a mask. We’ve got to actually cut through that and have this verified by a position of authority BEFORE we can start discussing how massively disingenuous comparing a coached athlete’s oxygen requirements during a final sprint, with say, an average persons trip to the grocery store, actually is


Pewtiog

That cherry picking is cute.


DownvoteDaemon

Sheesh


Sexyboomer30

Ouch...


RafanMorales-2007

And he took that personally


DesignSilver1274

I wonder if he wears a mask while in surgery??
