They are still going on about the vaccine??
I miss the days when antivaxxers were just a source of amusement, like flat earthers. Now they seem to be everywhere and it’s just sad.
It was never amusing. Earlier it was “only” kids dying of the measles because their dumbass parents were antivaxxers. With COVID-19, it started affecting adults so that’s why they get more attention. The public seems to be better able to tolerate children dying of preventable shit than adults.
It was way less children than Covid has killed.
And it wasn’t like nobody cared, those parents had to go out of their way to not vaccinate their children.
Do want another level of insanity? Here in Germany, we got the news today that WEATHER TV persons get harrased by people that think there is no climate change and its just propaganda.
There was a meteorologist in the US, in Nebraska iirc, that resigned a couple of months ago after receiving death threats for daring to mention climate change during his weather report. They’re fucking unhinged.
In France, on one of the main channels (the public TV, something like 5 or 6 channels, one of which is 24h news), the weather is now called “climate news” and addresses frontally climate stuff, with a link where you can send questions that they answer on air (whether what they answer are real questions or not is left as an exercise to the reader).
Of course that ruffled some feathers with the lunatic fringe, but they stuck with it, which is nice.
That’s pretty cool.

They fall over themselves denying it still. “Last winter sure was cold, no climate change here!”

I bet it’s from Republicans sucking dick under the stalls but they’ll never admit to it
They’d be quicker to believe that tbh. Anything that lets them shirk all accountability for their own actions and justify their bigotry. Your facts << their feelings because skydaddy told them they’re special and he’s got it all under control.
Polarized. Two nearly identical people can easily be convinced to hate each other over all sorts of silly nonsense because of what media they choose to consume.
Nah, if you’re so unhinged that you’re making death threats simply because someone referenced objective and observable scientific facts that your warped fairy tale reality doesn’t let you accept, there’s no “once you cut through all your regressive, batshit beliefs, we’re really the same”. There’s no reasoning with them because the delusion (e.g. “owning the libs”) is their whole identity.
Thank you for the example of someone dehumanizing other people.
How’s the view from your high horse?
I’ve learned that trying to take the high road with people that revel in bigotry and corruption is a fruitless endeavor. I’m done being naive and giving them the benefit of the doubt. Perhaps that’s because I live in the real world and actually deal with these people, rather than the pontificating about the intellectual concept of these people.
Some weather people have shown a spherical Earth instead of a disc! Heathens!
Oh that’s been going on everywhere for a while.
For most people, the TV weatherman is legit the only scientist they know. Of course they’re gonna take it out on them.
That’s just any day ending with the letter y in parts of America, must notably in Florida.

Oh please please do you have a link or a name that i can google?
The CDC just recommended a new round of boosters for everyone the other day. And as expected, conservative media is melting down about it again. But even beyond that, they’ve been getting back into “COVID temper tantrum” mode for about a week or so now that we’re moving into the fall.

Well at least I can commend Faux News for their consistency.
checks Russel Brands YouTube
Yeah…yeah they are
Russel Brand turning into a conservative hack was not on my apocalypse bingo card.
I used to really like Russell Brand. Not to say I don’t like him. I’ve never met him but from all accounts he seems to be a decent and caring person. But his recent weird ramblings are just… odd.
Still trying to find relevance. It’s a hard gig.
I thought that was Russell Howard for a second and kinda chocked. I could believe it, too, nothing is sacred anymore! Lol
Yes, because people not working cuts into their dividends.
Well, “fine” is debatable when describing Jeanine Pirro
Fox “News”
She had to get vaccinated to work there. Her job was more important than the “evil” vaccine I guess.
DURRRRR ONLY LIBTURDS EAT THEIR OWN WHY CONSERVATIVE EAT SELF NO STEP ON SNEK OR EAT OR SNEK TAIL
DURRRR
Sauce?
The post is a link…
why does anyone care
Because it exposes that someone who is making a living capitalizing off of extremist views that spread mass harm to the populace is a hypocrite that made sure to protect herself while telling everyone else that protection is a hoax, or at the least untrustworthy and harmful. Calling these people on their bullshit is a good thing to do. It’s not the same thing as “OMG did you hear Taylor Swift broke up with her 35th boyfriend?!”, it actually has real world consequences.
Wait, backup, is she single? If so and you’re reading this, hit me up Taylor.
Slow down, 37
ok this wall of text has convinced me to block the community
Dense MF can’t read like 4 sentences. Lead paint victim.
They’re like a video game character that gets caught on the landscaping.
:P
What a weird statement. It’s not even that much text.
The anti-vax conspiracy is doing tons of harm on the world.
