A mob of anti-mask enthusiasts recently flocked to a Target store in Florida and encouraged other shoppers to ditch their face coverings, all while blasting the Twisted Sister song, "We're Not Gonna Take It."
As HuffPost reported, the MAGA-outfitted marchers caused quite the scene as they hollered their way through the store, hoping to convince other customers to join their protest and abandon their own face masks.
While none of the marchers were wearing masks, many came sporting their favorite MAGA garb, such as red hats and t-shirts.
"Take your mask off," various people throughout the group shouted at those customers who had stopped to witness the scene. "Take them off!"
The song, "We're Not Gonna Take It," as made famous by the band Twisted Sister, blasted from the device, appearing to be meant as some sort of anthem for the anti-maskers' march.
"We're not gonna take it anymore," one woman in the group shouted, receiving virtually no enthusiasm from spectators in response.
"Look at these kids," one woman shouted, gesturing at the mask-less youngsters trailing behind her. "Let them be an example!"
That being said, it's unclear whether he was actually moved by their efforts, or if he had already been part of the group and simply joined in an attempt to encourage others to do the same.
"F***ing idiots," the person behind the camera can be heard saying as the group, and its newest recruit, march past them.
In the comments, other Twitter users have largely condemned the spectacle and all those who decided to take part in it.
As this person wrote, "They woke up this morning and thought, 'should I mildly inconvenience myself and wear a light piece of cloth on my face for an hour or so during a pandemic in order to protect other human beings OR should I ignore science and make a complete ass of myself in public on camera?'"
In that video, the group can be seen gathered together outside the store before heading inside, and Gomez turns the camera on herself to share some words of wisdom.
“If an infant doesn’t wear a mask, then no one should wear a mask,” she says. “People looking at us like, ‘What’s going on?’ Isn’t it crazy how people now look at me like we crazy because we don’t have a mask on? I think y’all crazy for having a mask.”
"No," he wrote on Twitter in a retweet of the original video, "these selfish assholes do not have my permission or blessing to use my song for their moronic cause."
