Oh, thanks everyone! It sounds like I should regard it less as a direct cause and effect kind of thing and more of the left's version of why certain conservatives get caught in elevators.

Matt couldn't have forseen that today it would be reported that Roy Moore got banned from a shopping mall and a YMCA for being a pervert. I mean there's "being a sex creep" and then there's "being a sex creep in the most hilarious stereotyped way possible." banned from the mall lol.

It's not a real mall ban unless his photo was posted on a wall somewhere. I need this evidence.

The lanyard in modern western culture is an interesting signifier to unpack, there's 3 layers to it. Establishment: People only wear lanyards if they are involved in the sort of standard white-collar/middle class organizations that permeate DC/NYC/SF/etc or the conventions that attract those sorts of people. In this case it's a practical element (security precaution) for those organizations that are central enough to power to attract subversive/antagonistic elements and are also large enough that not everyone in the given space can be expected to recognize every other person in that organization by their face. Identity: The lanyard also exists as a sense of identity. Not just in that it literally is an ID badge, but that those who wear it and choose to (or lack the self-awareness otherwise) to not display it in public. When I worked for the state government, I was given an ID badge and expected to wear it around the office, but whenever I passed through the lobby to the street, I always took it off. Those who don't either wish to flaunt their "lanyard" identity, or cannot think of displaying an identity other than that of their lanyard outside the office setting. Power: Ultimately, the lanyard is an expression of a type of power. Not low enough in the system that you just wear a plastic nametag or have a workshirt with some name stitched into it, or otherwise work in an organization small enough that everyone just knows everyone. But also, not high enough to just get by on your face alone. At the end of the day senators, judges, and presidents don't wear lanyards. In short, it means you don't dig ditches, but you're still a drone for the establishment.
