Black Woman Shuts Down White Guy's TikTok Rant Comparing Face Masks To Slave Muzzles

Black Woman Shuts Down White Guy's TikTok Rant Comparing Face Masks To Slave Muzzles

Anti-maskers continue to dramatize masks to the point you would think the act of wearing a mask was, itself, too difficult to complete. On the way, they're involving some absurd narratives in their quest to have a valid point.

For example, a White man @pharaoh_nefertiti addressed on TikTok decided to compare masks to the muzzles slaves would be fitted with as punishment.


But what he wasn't ready for was for her to absolutely shut down his comparison.

"Did you know that in the 1800s when slaves would misbehave, slave owners would put cloths over their face and make them go work in the hot fields til they passed out?" the man said.

"So don't forget to put on your mask before you go to work like a good little slave of the government."

The first thing our TikToker did was correct the White man's historical inaccuracies, as they made the slaves' muzzles sound much less obtrusive and harmful than they were.

She asked:

"You mean the metal muzzles that they would use?"
"You mean the ones that would cover their entire face where they could barely talk much less eat?"
"They most certainly could not remove them."

She then went in on him for making the comparison in the first place.

"So slave masters would put that on them as a form of punishment that they couldn't take off, and you have all of the PWC nerve and gall to compare that to a mask that you can remove during the middle of a goddamn pandemic?"
"Keep Black people out of your f**ked up narrative."

Mask mandates continue to go in and out of enforcement around the country as the highly contagious Delta variant tears through unvaccinated numbers.

The use of masks and people desperate to find an excuse not to use them became a major bone of contention since the beginning of the pandemic.

Anti-maskers should probably stop trying to compare their minor inconveniences with slavery or the Holocaust.

As our original poster pointed out, the two things have almost nothing in common.

Man Goes Viral For Pretending To Be Woman's Friend In Walmart After She Realized She Was Being Followed

Nobody likes feeling unsafe while alone in public—and women in particular experience this far too often. It's not wonder that most women would choose encountering a random bear in the wild rather than a random man.

It's becoming an increasingly common practice for women to approach other women and pretend to have "lost their friend" in the crowd, so as to deter creeps from bothering them. On rare occasions, a woman might approach a man, as well, if he seems like a safer option.

Tuberville, who spoke alongside a poster displaying a transphobic message, offered no evidence to substantiate the claim that a large portion of commercial aviation workers identify as furries, nor did he provide evidence that involvement in the furry community presents a safety concern.

The Instagram carousel, which the platform labeled as “sensitive content,” shows Noem and the other hunters smiling for the camera and posing with the elk’s carcass as if displaying a trophy from their “super fun hunt.” In several of the photos, Noem’s weapon is positioned beside the animal’s wound, with blood visibly seeping from the injury.
