We are in the dumbest fucking timeline

Just to be clear, the person making this claim is Dr. Aseem Malhotra, the crazy guy who's gotten into the good graces of RFK Jr. "Crazy Guy who makes Crazy Claims makes another Crazy Claim that aligns with his previous Crazy Claims." For me, I'm sticking this bit of information on the corkboard, but I'm not going to freak out about it. Yet.

Remember when the Republicans wanted the vaccine to be a choice?

Where are them Epstein Files and such?!

So a million and a half deaths weren't enough for those fuckers.

They fucking developed, distributed, and administered the vaccine under Trump 1.0

Apparently Trump was a woke idiot before and is somehow smarter now... Make it make sense Republicans!

Didn't the traditional COVID vaccine have way more issues than the mRNA one?

Can't have anything that helps people

A healthy, well educated population which feels safe and secure is incompatible with, and toxic to, conservative and authoritarian ideologies.

They need you to be sick, stupid, and scared.

So that's why zombie apocalypse in every Hollywood movie happens in the USA.

This reads like fake news. I don't believe they are that idiotic.

Oh fuck.

I'm anticipating congestive heart failure will be nominated as person of the year next year.

Vaccine skepticism isn’t so much about vaccines per se, it’s following a small movement that grew organically and fanning the flames instead of letting it die in obscurity. The purpose here is using it as a vehicle for promoting skepticism of tried and true science.

What’s the greatest enemy of authority? Tried and true facts with no room for dispute. By effectively undermining vaccines, the way is paved to continue to sow doubt and skepticism for other science, making it easier to dispute facts that can and will undermine authority without thus skepticism.

Yes, the added benefit is population control and distraction. If people are sicker and more financially blown up by medical bills they’re far too busy and demoralized to engage in revolution. And there’s less of them due to death. Brain fog from long COVID is beneficial as well.

In addition, they can pocket the funding that would otherwise go to vaccine programs.

It’s perfect, from an authoritarian viewpoint.

Wouldn't surprise me in the least.

When Taco said "I am your retribution", he was talking both about all his personal vendettas against a lot of the world, but he was also talking about the crazies and all their issues with reality, including properly addressing Covid, meaning lockdowns, social distancing and vaccines.

The unhinged crazies want to drag everyone else down with them.

Oh that’s an intelligent policy decision

The pandemic was awesome for us healthy surviving introverts. Not so much for the dead introverts or everyone else.

Are they moving this project forward at Warp Speed by any chance?

death is the most serious outcome of COVID-19, but was excluded from consideration in the analysis, which only considered hospitalization.

Seems like a fundamental flaw to me.

God damn it. If only Genocide Joe had earned our votes and Kamala had smiled a bit less. Remember everybody, nobody vote Democrat until they finally run Bernie in 2028!

Fucking hell.

So they are banning the vaccine that the “trump administration made” ….. America is a third world country and I want out of it asap.

I heard repeatedly "you should have the freedom to choose to be vaccinated or not". Are those people going to just as vigorously argue against banning it?

Somebody needs to infect them both
