Never in a million years did I see pandemic safety becoming one of the most punk rock things you could do in this world, but here we are

It was true with mutual aid at the beginning (when we did our local network, it was mostly punk folks sewing masks and making hand sanitizer from distillery-donated rotgut, at least at first).

And now it's solarpunks masking up and hacking things into Corsi Rosenthal boxes

It completely makes sense-- punk and anarchism have a lot of overlap, and DIY and mutual aid culture is strong in both-- but what a sorry state of affairs that this stuff is starting to feel like a fuck you to the eugenic mainstream instead of basic soccer mom-level etiquette

I would hope pandemic safety would be a completely normal and acceptable behavior that everyone encourages it.

When did our citizens become so screwed up to say "it's a hoax."
