From what I remember this was just an excuse for dudes from my high school to take off their shirts
Thorpington
thats cause this was attached to some idea of being a celebrity. theres none of there with corona.
TheHouseOfRamZ
I remember when people got pissed at me when I just donated instead of dumping ice water on my head... that was the whole point
gamerlen
Uh, how do you know that everyone who participated in the Ice Bucket challenge is now saying 'masks violate muh freedoms?'
CocoaBeansLlamaMemes
Being uncomfortable for a few minutes is much different than being uncomfortable for months.
asoftstrawberry
I did this, I was pressured into it. I don't think me pouring a bucket of water on my head helped anybody.
asoftstrawberry
Not to say that it wasn't worth researching and being more knowledgeable about but this was just a trend and now nobody thinks about ALS.
Illithidbane
Unless someone dumped ice on them self every day, multiple times a day, for months, then it isn't the same.
JayOhAreDeeAyEn
I forgot that was for a cause
ThyDevilsAdvocate
Wearing a mask doesn’t get you any internet points
YouwontlikewhatIhavetosay
You're comparing something that happened in a moment and was finished, with something you're told to do every day. It's different. 1/
YouwontlikewhatIhavetosay
And before anyone starts raging on me, or downvote me into oblivion - I wear mine daily, I have no issues with wearing them.

"So Y'all fight Nazis and also are Nazis." You do realise humans aren't a hive mind, right?
MapleMooseMeat
ALS challenges were able to be posted for all to see and get pats on backs... masks don't carry the same quell for the 'atta boy' addiction
JSteady331
They absolutely do. Notice how people are wearing them in their profile pictures now?
Dankking
Trump politicized it already and made his followers think that it’s something the left if forcing on them to control them or something.
Aurumai
You can get people to do anything (no matter how stupid/dangerous/uncomfortable it is) if you just call it a fucking 'challenge'.
boredAgain2day
Exactly, because wearing a mask won’t get you likes on social media like a bucketful of ice will.
SecretAgentSuperBooger
CaptainRedHook
dramatic acts of charity are easy to socially inspire; people wanna be seen as heroes. Small acts of care, everyday empathy aren’t applauded
Wasnbo
Spontaneous generosity comes easily to Americans. Extended kindness is harder. Well it's NOT harder, but you know what I mean.
Galaxyfartz
I remember the ice bucket challenge I'll my friends ditched me and didn't nominate me so I did it on my own
Drix013
Wait!?! You're handing out Mexican beer?? O.o
DJThuglifeSupreme
Because the ice bucket challenge became a fad that people did for social media clout, and you can’t get that same amount of hype from masks
saintdave1985
Wearing a mask wont get you attention from strangers on the internet
Tall4APanda
The point is if you dumped water on your head you didn’t have to donate, if you refused to dump water on your head, you had to donate.
ChaosSlave51
Dumping ice on yourself on video, and not wearing a mask are both attention seeking behaviors

Came to say this. She could have just dunked on the fallen girl, but she showed true sportsmanship.

That one girl is a trainwreck.

Butt dat jiggle... He he he...

Actually damn few people dumped ice water on their heads.

Pretty sure those 3 guys in particular, wear masks

I used whipped cream on my naked body...

I did, so did my Mrs and our mates and our folks and our colleagues, loads of people did lol.
ispentwaytoolongthinkingaboutthis
The Ice Bucket Challenge was a successful campaign. It raised over $220M worldwide. I’d say a lot of people did it.
Tall4APanda
Ahh forkrying out loud, the whole premise was donate OR dump ice water on your head... ffs man
smallchanceofsuccess
Myself and several others donated to avoid the ice water.
UncleTopher
You dumped water on your head to avoid the donation.
Rhythmaster
Right. Probably more people are habitually wearing masks now than participated in the challenge though.
hokieface
I thought the raising money part was because if you DIDNT pour it on your head you had to donate

MrJackedBroccoli
Have to get those tasty tasty likes
superkp
it was a movement that advertised itself and raised 220 million dollars. But to you, it's only rocket powered vanity. Right.
OrangeFlavours
the entire point mof the challenge was to spread it around, so people donated, dude. don't insult them for doing it.
scherudion
Most people just dumped regular water, not ice water, a bit of difference especially if it's room temp water
UncleSlam123
kiddub
Uh, what does it matter? Seems like a odd thing to pick on.
ispentwaytoolongthinkingaboutthis
Donating $ to ALS after, and it didn’t matter what was in the bucket. The awareness of the disease is what’s important. It worked
theshinobi23
As I recall it, the challenge was to donate, but if you refused, you were supposed to dump the ice water on your head. Many did both for fun
NacLac
What? The stunt is less important than the money raised? How will the disease know everyone was serious about ending it?
Moylsie
And the money raised led to an actual breakthrough in understanding ALS.

Thank you!
DVSBSTrD
Pretty sure the people who did do the ice bucket challenge have no problem wearing a mask.
thesauceisboss
I’m pretty sure the people who cared about others before it mattered, aren’t the ones I’m concerned with right now.
peeeopeepeee
Looking at the farming side of my family I've determined that was a lie
Iwishbettywhitewaspresident
Oh how I wish you were right but sadly I know too many antimaskers who happily did the ice bucket challenge
erdocsg
The mask will get wet and not work though
lfischer35
False because I didn't do the challenge and the ones I know who did, still don't understand how masks work
BiologicallyHazardousMaterial
I have a bigger problem with the ice than i do the mask
overpolitemidwesterner
Accurate.
MeshHatMafia
Not accurate. My step dad did the challenge and is mentally challenged when it comes to mask wearing
ImJustaDudePlayingAnotherDude
Maybe it was damaged when he poured ice in his head?
thesauceisboss
Wankathon
Trump did it, but he had to have models drop the bucket
bippidybopiddyboo
That's not accurate. I know way too many covidiots who posted ice bucket challenge videos years ago.
IfIOnlyHadAName
True. The initial post is just as inaccurate.
OrkoTheMagician
If people could get away with wearing a mask for 30 seconds and posting it to social media, they would. It’s having to repeatedly care 1/2
OrkoTheMagician
about others that’s impossible. That’s the thing. It’s not freedom, it’s not fear, it’s having to not be an asshole that they hate.

Wore one before the mandates

PorneliusHubertII
Started wearimg them the day the cdc recommended them.
SatanicSpirals
Same. Got made fun of by the head of health and safety at my workplace.
PorneliusHubertII
My dad passed in june and the whole family complained that the funeral home forced everyone to wear them. They asked me why i wear my mask
PorneliusHubertII
When i dont have to. Told them it was because of people like them.
ThosePostCurryBumWees
Didn't Trump do the ice bucket challenge?
LeninInDisguise
But Trump is wearing a mask, sometimes
Donku83
He wears masks sometimes and gets tested daily and has everyone that comes close to him tested. I've read he's quite paranoid about it ½
Donku83
You can fact check me on that last bit. I think it was said by one of his aides. If only he preached what he practiced
PleaseAMArelatedtomachining
Can't be that paranoid if he caught it. Icu nurses testing covid patients for months have still not gotten it
PleaseAMArelatedtomachining

only90skidswillgetthis
I had read, long before corona, that he was a germaphobe. Makes his behavior all the more odd
DVSBSTrD
He had someone else pour the bucket on him so it doesn't count.
only90skidswillgetthis
Dude can't even pour a glass of water in his mouth with one hand
DeZaim
My first thoughts, too. Cunt can't even lift a glass to his face let alone a fucking bucket with ice and water over his head.
Crawmak
I was unaware of this stipulation
lasertag2000
imagine being stupid enough posting this and thinking this is a good argument.
GodCommentMaker
It’s a fucking joke... not meant to be the opening statement in a debate
Nuggetti
Well it sucks so bad as a joke, that it can really only be taken as the latter.
GodCommentMaker
In that Case don’t take life so seriously and develop a sense of humour
Nuggetti
I did. That's how I know a shitty joke.
Iamathighman
Front page though.
Zadwanaa
Right? The idiots refusing to wear masks dont care about ALS or the ice bucket challenge in general
Noksus
Fair point
Frenchfryinmyeye
Seems like a hasty generalization here.
Zadwanaa
Honestly though is it? If someone refuses to wear a mask doesnt seem to care about others. So why would they care about ALS or the challenge
MeliOriflamme
Honestly, if masks work, why do you care if another individual doesn't wear one when you yourself are protected?
Neinas
Because the masks don’t work 100% and they work best to stop infected people from spreading it, not so good as protection
Frenchfryinmyeye
Honestly yes.
Zadwanaa
Whys that?
IfIOnlyHadAName
These "y'all this but that" is well within the hasty generalization realm. "They" are always the same groups of people somehow to make 1/?
IfIOnlyHadAName
a no point. It's internet trope to feel like you told the world something no one else is.
