    The 2022 one is honestly so ironic, because most governments who dictate head coverings for women are led by far-right religious nationalists. Not unlike the far-right christian nationalists we see in the US today.

      Also ironic because it looks like a gaiter mask, which I only ever saw being worn by right-wing dingbats.

        C’mon, have a little respect for other cultures. The preferred vernacular is cosplatriots.

        I used one until I found out how useless they were. I thought a lot of the “fun” mask ideas worked better with a gaiter.

        But after those first couple months - yeah, only worn by “look I’m wearing a mask, leave me alone” types or “I don’t want people to see my face while I stroke my AR15 at the minimum legal distance from this polling location” types.

        It’s not a symbol of oppressive upbringing unless the person wearing it feels that way. You don’t get to dictate someone else’s interpretation of meaning of their own clothes. -the left

            Yes, always question what you were taught. But it’s up to the individual to do that at their own pace.

            It’s the same with religion. I expect everyone to question the one they were indoctrinated into, and I personally think everyone should leave, but everyone goes at their own pace.

          The religious justification for those kinds of head coverings is literally sexist. Women shouldn’t show their hair because it sexually excites men when they see it, and it’s women’s job to be modest to prevent that. That’s oppressive. Can somebody associate other, non-oppressive ideas with the garment? I guess, but it’s sort of like trying to reappropriate a hate symbol. There’s not a lot of point in it, and people will reasonably assume you’re a conservative bigot.

    I personally can’t wait until the cyberpunk style takes over and we all have to wear techno full head masks and helmets with long coats and layers.

    It’s true - right-wing genetic cul-de-sacs are well known for showing their faces as they disjointedly goose-step around the place.

    That’s nothing - at least they can see. You should have seen 2018. Simone Smash It has my vote for 2024 regardless.
