I'm reminded of the term petromasculinity. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petro-m...
Petro-masculinity is a term that describes a type of masculinity linked to the fossil fuel industry, emphasizing power, traditional gender roles, and often rejecting environmentalism as feminine. It connects male identity with issues like colonialism and environmental destruction, highlighting a cultural performance that values fossil fuel consumption and associated symbols of strength.

Yes, this cartoon is exactly that, perfectly describing my weird right-wing neighbors complaining on Facebook about the gas-powered leaf blower ban. (ban was a reaction to noise complaints ca. 2020, when office workers stayed at home on Zoom calls, along with their kids, also on video conferences)
As of July 1, 2025, gas leaf blowers are prohibited in Montgomery County. Montgomery County updated the noise law to address the environmental, noise, and health concerns related to gas-powered leaf blowers and leaf vacuums. Effective July 1, 2025, the use of handheld, backpack, and walk-behind gas-powered leaf removal equipment is banned in Montgomery County. A violation can result in a $500 citation. To help residents and businesses comply with the law, the County offers rebates on the purchase of new electric leaf blowers.

The Day After (1983), the most-watched television movie of all time, got to me. Conflict between NATO and the Warsaw Pact over Germany rapidly escalated into a full-scale nuclear exchange. The BBC television film Threads (1984) was similarly horrific.
