I cannot find any of those 3 studies.

And they didn't cite their sources (fucking gatewaypundit with their low quality journalism).

Anyone have those studies? I would love to use them at work on the pro-maskers.

Here's the New Republic article: https://newrepublic.com/article/117152/how-sunglasses-and-masks-affect-moral-behavior

Frankly, I posted this for the title. You are right - TGP is HORRIBLE about linking to sources - The worst is when they're discussing a bill and they can't even put the link to the legislation.

I doubt we'd find any studies on the characteristics of modern maskers - unless they were glowing reviews - bc, well, you know who funds all that.

Awesome.

Got one of the studies from that article:

https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0956797609360754

But it is only the sunglasses one. :(

Better than nothing.

You might also check out the Zimbardo Prison study mentioned in the article - lots of parallels

Here's something (and of course it portrays pro-maskers as "agreeable" and the rest of us not - lol https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/why-bad-looks-good/202007/personality-and-our-willingness-wear-masks

So you shill for the pfizer/ moderna m-RNA therapy 'vaccine' but you're not 'pro mask' at work ?/ Is that the job where you told me you '... i cant say too much, but i keep America safe from the bad guys' ??.

Actually, lets be clear here, you didn't clarify whether you yourself was personally pro mask or not - only that you will use the studies at work on the pro-maskers ??. Details matter, cause you engage in sophistry.

These stats are being skewed by bank robbers.

It used to be easy to spot bank robbers.

Not so much these days.

Now you have to show an actual gun to qualify for robber status. Otherwise the tellers won't give you a dime.

And only if you're asking for more than $950 ;-)

It wouldn't surprise me if it's true. The mask gives a false sense of security. Look at the shit people say from the safety of their keyboards in mom's basement. The majority of them wouldn't dare speak up let alone look you in the face in real life.

Yep. Maskers are selfish, pompous, ego maniacs. Every Single One. I give them just as many dirty looks as possible. I also let the door slam in their face.
