All a distraction from the Epstein files
Infection is the best protection? Alright then Rand, please get infected with HIV so that you may be protected from it in the future. Better yet, expose yourself to Marburg virus so you’ll never have to use a vaccine ever again. Doesn’t sound so smart now does it?
Hey, it’s still technically correct. Also: Shhh, don’t let the right-wing politicians know.
If infection was the best protection…then why did 7 million people die? Was it the best protection for them? What about the other deaths caused indirectly? What is it like 20-30 million deaths? They know what they’re saying. Fucking evil fucks.
The core problem with all this anti-vax bullshit, is that Vaccines worked…and they worked too well.
We have entire generations now that have never seen the terrible consequences of Polio, Smallpox, Measels (Although thats quickly changing, Go America! /s), or any other disease thats been eliminated (at least at one point… Go America! /s) from popular concern and conscious.
and as a result, they have no idea what crippling horrors that they have been, and are actively, protected from.
and because humans are, generally, stupid and irrational and a lot of them lack the capability to think about anything beyond what they can see within 3 feet around them, they scream about the vaccines and call them evil because they have absolute no experience with the alternative, which is the diseases themselves.
True for peace time as well. Very few people arguing for war has actually ever seen combat.
Yep. In this case: rules are written in blood, yet some people forget why they are here in the first place.
Only to inevitably find out “holy shit, now i get it”
Yep… its the same with almost all regulations, too.
You know, those pesky things conservatives and big business say stifle innovation and reduce money making.
and its true, they reduce innovation and reduce money making… because it stops them from cheaply dumping toxic waste in drinking water, then innovatily selling us filters to clean out the toxic waste.
It stops them from innovating by putting powdered chalk in spoiled milk to whiten it back up, to save profits from loss and sell what would have been losses to the public.
It stops them from mixing coal dust in pepper.
It forces them to provide safety equipment to workers, and cover injuries caused on the job, rather than innovating by letting workers get black lung and be fired once they can no longer work, to die miserable deaths.
Regulations are to the benefit of workers, customers, and the general public. Which is why conservatives and big business hate them, because keeping the public safe and having healthy markets means taking a small portion of money away from million/billionaires.
Don’t forget scarlet fever, rheumatic fever, puerperal fever, and the plague!
Yeah it’s almost like it’s reality, something you guys enjoy holding hands and pretending “isn’t real” 24/7 together eh https://www.c-span.org/program/senate-committee/dr-anthony-fauci-testifies-on-origins-of-covid-19-pandemic/683492 Been reality since day 1 and now even here 6.5 years later with this proof right in front of your eyes you continue to pretend this isn’t true because “we don’t want it to be” / “it would mean those people we dislike were correct all along”
Delusion, now be sure to ban me for disagreeing and providing evidence as to why so your echo chamber remains strong Also FYI most people in the world live in reality unlike you all and make their decisions upon that (see: the current president of the united states, who also won the popular vote), can’t wait for you to emotionally jump on my comment with zero counter arguments as you’re unable to refute anything I’ve said <3 just hit the down arrow by my name and scroll down QUICK ! ! !
what are you trying to say?
My bad, I forgot my comment requires critical thinking skills to piece together
well as it stands you just seem to be schizo posting with a victim complex
can you just reply with your core argument here?
then i will try to either agree or give a counter to that
Nah I can’t do it bro sorry, this is how every low IQ specimen argues with me on this website they just type nonsense irrelevant to anything I said so hey I bought some bananas today cool innit bruv, let’s talk about that for no reason without me acknowledging the rest of what you’ve just said, surely it won’t be a waste of your time just like it’s totally not a waste of time for me to respond to either
surely a genius like you will read back over the comment chain and realize you forget the paragraph with the point of the whole post.
hopefully in time before they find it, can’t have them find it again, they make you do things
For sure for sure and I like to put the apples with the grapes too
Checkmate, get owned!!!
Says a dude who will never have even a quarter of what the average baby boomer had at their age, like 7+ children, a home at 19 years old, economic stability, or at least a happy family of four without a college degree. Why? Are they smarter, work harder, or what?
Why should we listen to a dumbass who cannot make even a quarter of what any of my baby boomer grandparents made at your age, one had 7 children, the other 10, and one of them didn’t go to college? Both are obsessed with the Bible. Both have massive homes and had a life full of activity and ignorant happiness with their children.
What about you? You keep crying about not being able to afford the Steam Machine. RAM memory. Housing. Rent. Healthcare. Videogames at their normal price. Enough protein, meat, good food. Going out to the cinema anytime you wanted, any restaurant. A home at 19 years old like the average baby boomer did, instead, the average American Citizen is getting their first home at 54 years old today. The fertility rate went from 7+ to 1.5, and it isn’t because of the lies the Jeffrey Epstein Class told you, like blaming women getting jobs and becoming independent, or that this economical gap is normal.
You are just a moron who benefits the Jeffrey Epstein Class by trying to distract people with Dr. Fauci. You want people to keep looking sideways instead of up.
Your president is a pedophile, and him and his family and every single one of his followers will pay for the great amount of pain and suffering you’ve brought upon innocent people for so long. Being anonymous in the Internet won’t protect you anymore. It’s so easy to spot insane dipshits like you in real life, and open their heads to the truth.
At the end of the day, is it thanks to your friction and stupidity that democratic socialists like Zohran Mandami and Claire Valdez are conquering your country from within. You will have free healthcare, affordable housing and more education whether you like it or not. People like Zohran will be your future president.
You are a broke pedophile apologist who spends his days commenting pro-MAGA retarded shit online instead of spending time with your friends or your children. You’re already dead. Why should we listen to you at all, y’know?
My new copypasta thanks bro, the fact you are UPVOTED for writing a literal fanfiction about my real life when you have absolutely no idea who I am and my circumstances is fucking hilarious (who the absolute fuck wants that piece of shit Steam Machine LOL)
People truly place their delusions over reality on here lmfao “This guy is genuinely mentally insane typing an essay of literal nonsense, but he hates those people and that poster who I hate too… so I’ll upvote him anyway in agreement YEAH!”
Also you failed the test I literally spelled out for you:
can’t wait for you to emotionally jump on my comment with zero counter arguments as you’re unable to refute anything I’ve said <3
So explain to me why would I respond to any part of your strawman schizobabble when you have failed to address my original argument, Fauci tried to force these useless dangerous ‘’‘vaccines’‘’ that everyone with our eyes open back then knew were bullshit FROM DAY 1 and here he is 6.5 years later terrified to answer questions about how he knew all along and was actively dismissing evidence of them being bullshit
It’s so weird how all of us who never took that shit are all still alive and totally fine today, compared to the massive rise of ‘died suddenly’ videos whilst they were actively being pushed on people…! “We’re just not sure what’s causing this!” on the news for years XD
If Capitalism or Trump love you so much, how come he is not giving you even a quarter of what the average baby boomer had at your age yet? Statistics do not lie. If you’re actually an outlier, why are you here instead of spending time with your children? We should just eat you and return everything you stole from the working class back.
You do not hate the Jeffrey Epstein Class, you benefit and support it by attacking people like Dr. Fauci. You want to help them distract people with nonsense, so they can continue raping and bombing children. If that’s not your goal, it is what you are doing, regardless, so. Lock in, you moronic MAGA. You are going to hell automatically for helping pedophiles.
To be honest, it’s better for me to leave people like you in the darkness. Keep blaming Dr. Fauci and keep hunting innocent people down. It was thanks to people like you that most of my republican relatives died to Covid because they said the exact same shit as you. Covid was good for that only: at killing a bunch of stubborn ignorant republicans who think they knew better than thousands of doctors around the globe.
You are still a proud and loud antivaxxer in 2026, to be honest, I don’t need to do anything. You will get yourself killed and that’s fine, it’s your choice. I took the vaccine and I am still waiting to die as retards like you told me I would, but it’s been 6 years, I am currently learning how to create MetaHumans in Unreal Engine 5.8, and my English grammar is still superior than yours, and I am just a Mexican who has never visited the USA. Your brain is mush and filled with paranoia, making up nonsense about “suddenly died” videos and what not just to hype yourself with lies.
You are already food for worm. You have nothing of value to offer to humanity. You are boring, broke, and also evil and stupid. You are trash, and people deserve better than trash. People need to take the trash out and fix their country already. Or do not, so numbers like these can stay the way they are:
During Covid:
- US - 3,596 deaths per million with a population size of 335 million.
- Mexico - 2,605 deaths per million with a population size of 130 million.
- China - 85 deaths per million with a population size of 1.42 billion, 4x times the US’, which should’ve been harder to administrate or manage, but they did it efficiently anyway.
Which seems more responsible there? And by A LOT.
Every year, to general conflict (rates per 100,000 inhabitants):
- US - 20,000± people - rate of 5.7 due to its population size.
- Mexico - 30,000± people - rate of 24.85.
- China - 7,157 people - rate of 0.502, incredibly impressive for a country 4x times the size in population.
- UK - 684 people - rate of 1.14.
- Canada - 874 people - rate of 2.27.
- My favorite, this one always makes Americans go “no way that’s true. But the way they treat gays over there!!!”
- Saudi Arabia - 285 people - rate of 0.795.
- Qatar - 2 people - rate of 0.074
- Syria - 463 people - rate of 2.07
Which are safer? Qatar, China and Saudi Arabia.
Now, according to World Population Review, Our World Data, the UN and more regarding wealth inequality, the higher the number, the worse (Gini coefficient, 0 would mean everyone has the exact same amount of cash, so, expect it to be a minimum of 20~):
- South Africa - 63.0
- Brazil - 51.6
- Zimbabwe - 50.3
- Mexico - 43.5
- US - 41.8
- China - 35.7
- UK - 32.4
- Japan - 32.3
- Sweden - 31.6
- Iraq, bro - 29.8
- Norway - 26.9
- United Arab Emirates - 26.4
- India - 25.5
- Slovakia, the lowest, most “communist one” as Americans say - 24.1
- Couldn’t find the Gini for Saudi Arabia, but I am sure it’s similar to its neighbors, which dingle around the mid 20s or low 30s.
TLDR; Keep being yourself. It’s exactly Americans like you that are helping Socialism win. You are so fucking stupid, you cannot even make a quarter of what any of my baby boomer grandparents made at your age. And you still support and benefit the people who stole your potential away. You already lost.
Ah lovely the spergout meltdown supreme I ordered has finally arrived
So much random projection from you LOOOL, let’s see antifakevaxxed and proud for not failing that IQ test (still not dead like you said I would be XD) unlike you who fell due to peer pressure, don’t live in america, live in a 2 bedroom terraced house I 100% own, work as a programmer making £66k/year (be sure to let me know your fake wage of $500k a year) whilst entirely sitting at home riling you nerds up on the side, also got a low 6 figure amount currently chilling in my bank account and not even entering my 30’s for another couple years lmfao
Looks like I already WON ! GL with the cartel in your “first world country” that you’ll never move out of, GG !
Also feel free to report and get me banned for calling you a sperg idc I peeped my head into this irrelevant website and could not give a fuck less about my account on this shithole, you are typing up a storm not even realizing what I’m doing hahahaaaaa can’t make this shit up, imagine S T I L L truly thinking the covid vax was normal holy fuckballs, enjoy the remainder of your permadelusion existence with a sombrero on top
You are a pristine example of a ‘tolerant left’ specimen who would headshot me with a rifle if he had the chance simply for disagreeing with him, look how fucking ANGRY you are at me for no reason hahaaa (YOU MUST AGREE WITH ME NOW OR UR SUPER EVILZ!!!), now be sure to type up another fantasy land fanfic about my life sounding like a total lunatic to anyone remotely sane (aka next to nobody on this website LMFAO)
Just know that everything I say can be proven in this place called REALITY, unlike all of your little fantasies that are only believed by the other lost dwellers of this website that nobody uses (I sure wonder why that is!) especially compared to real places like modern Twitter where people from both sides are free to discuss reality (and one side seems to always destroy the other so overwhelmingly to the point of them running off to sites like BlueCry since they can only ‘succeed’ via silencing the oppresses with the same rules this site has LMAO)
You are still nowhere close to what the average baby boomer had at your age. You don’t even have a happy family of four yet, and you’re about to enter your 30s, which is already too late to reproduce. The chances of bearing a child with disabilities increase significantly after you turn 30. Clock is ticking, you fatty lonely incel.
You are still more broke than both of my grandparents were, especially the one with no college title, who babbles about how important the Bible is all day. His massive ass 2-story home is in a >1200m2 land, with 6+ bedrooms, 1 guest room, 1 room for the nannies that took care of his 10 children, 3 backyards, one is inside and it’s like a zen garden with a 2-story fountain filled with exotic fish. They spent their time traveling around the world, buying a ton of trinkets and statues from Asia and Africa, including illegal rhino tusks. Marble floor, a pool, multiple lands they own and currently rent and I will inherit some, so I don’t really have to work, but I do anyway, I am also a software engineer, currently working with Unreal Engine 5.8, learning how to use MetaHumans. Already learnt how to make my own GOAP, Utility, FSM, all that. Already learnt 3D modeling, animation, and so on. I am having fun learning with all this free time I got.
And the best part is that I don’t have to worry about being eaten by the angry mob like you will be :)
You are still a boring and mediocre person. No money will change that. You will still be someone who benefits the Jeffrey Epstein Class, by getting paid a small percentage of what you’re truly worth. Your entire purpose in life is to help pedophiles rape children with your work and submissive personality. You are a fucking loser, lmfao
Just look at how angry you are, how little you care about people. You are already dead and rotten inside. Listing your bank account balance and house specs in an argument on a website you ‘don’t care about’ is severe insecurity. You look like an absolute clown who didn’t get what he wanted in life, so he has to come here and “hurt” random strangers online to feel some kind of power or whatever, but the fact is, is that you are still a massive fucking loser. You just got put in your fucking place by a random Mexican from one of the poorest cities in Mexico. That is fucking pathetic, lmao, you are nothing but future food for worms.
Did the lack of vaccines make you dumber or something? It seems like it did. You still cannot make more than any of my religious baby boomer grandparents. Why?
You don’t even have a happy family of four yet
YOU SIMPLY DON’T HAVE <THIS> BECAUSE… BECAUSE… IN MY FANTASY YOU DON’T!
YOU SIMPLY DON’T HAVE <THIS> BECAUSE… BECAUSE… IN MY FANTASY YOU DON’T!
YOU SIMPLY DON’T HAVE <THIS> BECAUSE… BECAUSE… IN MY FANTASY YOU DON’T!
YOU SIMPLY DON’T HAVE <THIS> BECAUSE… BECAUSE… IN MY FANTASY YOU DON’T!
YOU SIMPLY DON’T HAVE <THIS> BECAUSE… BECAUSE… IN MY FANTASY YOU DON’T!
That’s your entire argument within every single post of your schizo babble fanfiction nonsense
You are making up shit about me over and over and over whilst genuinely trying to portray yourself as some sane guy higher than myself, then ‘beating’ that strawman you just invented and declaring victory
As you target me with shit you don’t even know is true or not
I have said NOTHING about you personally
Dumbest fucker on this platform award goes to you sir! Congrats on never addressing a single one of my points
Listing your bank account balance and house specs in an argument on a website you ‘don’t care about’ is severe insecurity.
HAHAHAAAAA, you’ve just self-reported yourself to the extreme lmfaooooo congrats buddy!
MUH GRANDPARENTS OWNED FIVE HOUSES
Dude, if you had a happy family of four, or even 1 child, you’d not spend your time coming to “websites like this” to argue with random people like a retarded rabid teenager. You’d be spending it with your children. At your age, mid 20s or whatever, both of my grandpas were already going for their fourth or fifth child. They lived with more joy and happiness than you did. Why aren’t you?
Or are you saying you do have a family, and this is how those poor children’s dad behaves like? Someone should take those children away. You do not deserve to reproduce!
Oh god now theres another one.
Wait…
Why are you comparing me to that fucking MAGA, dude?
I don’t live in america you brainless ape, you must genuinely fantasize these fanfictions about people you don’t know so frequently that you now instantly believe the drivel you write lmfaooo
Did I say you were? You are clearly fucking retarded. You are just boring future fertilizer. You sound and behave like the average MAGA does, no matter which country you’re from, that shit is global.
Did I say you were?
Uhh let’s see
It’s exactly Americans like you that are helping Socialism win.
Nice one dumbass
You are clearly fucking retarded.
Then what does this make you then LOOOL, can’t even remember shit he typed
Is goldfish memory a common trait of mexicans?
Get some help man, you don’t have to go through life in a cloud of insanity.
Brother, I think you forgot to take your meds this morning.
Can’t refute what you said because you didn’t say anything.
Wut?
Rand Paul is vaccinated. Reminder to tell anyone who brings him up that fact.
He doesn’t seem to be claiming he isn’t vaccinated.
RP: hotdogs might not be healthy Lemmy users: you once at a hotdog hahahaha owned noob!
You’re either young or not American. Rand Paul has been anti vaccination forever
https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/rand-pauls-vaccine-claims-microscope
"On Friday night in Iowa, Paul faced likely voters in the state’s leadoff nominating caucuses for the first time since answering questions about a measles outbreak centered in California. Paul said Monday that he had heard about “many tragic cases” of children who got vaccines and ended up with “profound mental disorders.”
That assertion has no basis in medical research, and Paul clearly was still upset on Friday about how his comments had been received"
This is from early 2015, before COVID btw.
The tweet isn’t any kind of “own.” It doesn’t contradict Rand Paul. Everyone here thinking like this is some really clever gotcha moment … they’re just kind of telling on themselves.
Again. Rand Paul has stomped around for over a decade telling people to be wary of vaccines, that they cause autism, mental disorders and that they’re overall unhealthy. Meanwhile he is vaccinated.
I don’t know why you’re being straight up frustratingly stupid about it.
The point is whenever Rand Paul says fuck all about vaccines the first thing to note is HE IS VACCINATED. He’s a hypocrite and he is trying to grift people.
He knows there are Americans who have been convinced by religion and lack of education and people like him to think vaccines aren’t good, so he’s preying on that WHILE HE IS VACCINATED.
He would not be allowed to do the things he does if he wasn’t. It doesn’t matter what he says in this tweet, he should shut the fuck up about vaccinations because the rest of us know he’s lying.
There is no reason to ever listen to this man about vaccinations.
It’s not meant to be a gotcha, it’s not meant to SLAM or OWN or ANNIHILATE Rand Paul. I’m not Ben Shitpiro. Again, if he says fuck all about vaccines know, he is vaccinated and he’s trying to grift.
Okay? Okay.
All conservatives are. Even the most vehement anti-vax ones.
Fox News didnt let anyone in the building without a vaccine card at one point.
But conservative voters always conveniently ignore and pretend not to remember all of this.
While this could be based on bad faith we cannot deny how a cover up was happening, and how mishandling of the pandemic caused more death.
It was very clear how this was being studied actively in a poorly protected lab, and highly possible that it could a soptage event or an accedident. Yet they continue to dismmiss these suggestions as being lies and conspiracy theory.
I recall posting published academic papers from the lab around October before the cases start coming up discussing continuing research of the virus and getting banned on Reddit. That how crazy it was.
People also need to question how senior homes were mismanaged that causes unnecessary deaths/murder due to neglect.
Same with Nurses and medical staff who suffer due to lack of organization and oversight.
Also for vaccine, in a capitalist society that values money over anything else, after a major event like that, there should be national committee in every country investigating CEO and major shareholder and any communication between any parties that made tons of money.
Assuming Fauci is innocent just because Republicans are the one going after him is stupid. The two party system should be able to hold each other accountable. If he didn’t want to handle the investigation, he should have quit, taking the position comes with risks of being investigated for mishandling of situations and he should be ready for it.
The main problem here, is that, while Republicans doing their job, even as misdirection or in bad faith, the Democrats are not holding Republicans to the same standards, best they do is continuing where the Republican left.
So yes this is good to see and hope more details comes out.
Yet they continue to dismmiss these suggestions as being lies and conspiracy theory.
Because at this point, as far as I can tell, this is still just baseless speculation. It could have been that, but it could have been aliens, we don’t have any actual evidence to base any of it on, hence it being easy to dismiss as a conspiracy theory.
People also need to question how senior homes were mismanaged that causes unnecessary deaths/murder due to neglect.
Same with Nurses and medical staff who suffer due to lack of organization and oversight.
Yes, this is every damn day. Before COVID, during the height of the pandemic, and every day since. None of that is particularly relevant to COVID, Fauci, or vaccines. Profit seeking interests preying on the weak without sufficient repurcussions.
Assuming Fauci is innocent just because Republicans are the one going after him is stupid.
We presume innocence because not one bit of evidence has been presented. Like this accusation that we should have just all gotten infected because ‘everyone knew’ that was better than getting vaccinated. Which goes against mountains of evidence showing that people were way better off with the vaccinne, with the most ‘damming’ credible outcome being that maybe it was a waste of time for people under 20, but only evident with hindsight.
The problem is simply that the pandemic was an embarrassment for Trump, and would have been even if he handled everything right (which he didn’t), but they need to scapegoat someone so they scapegoat Fauci for no apparent reason.
Because at this point, as far as I can tell, this is still just baseless speculation. It could have been that, but it could have been aliens, we don’t have any actual evidence to base any of it on, hence it being easy to dismiss as a conspiracy theory.Depend on how you look at thing as I recall:
- They were literally studying the different types of bat viruses
- They publish an article of similar covid like viruses and the similarities with HIV around October/November
- If I recall correctly the Lab was not categories to be allowed to work on such viruses
I think these three points are not baseless. Now we add other points:
- WHO were not allowed to do independent research, and I think UK and France criticized the report.
- US Intelligence suggested a few worker got sick before December, although it was Trump administration but Biden never released the full report.
- and I think in the note Fauci point out that 10 out of 12 don’t believe it is natural. Although is not clear who they are but I assume they virologist at the time.
I think these are not baseless suggestions.
Fauci is definitely innocent. Not sure where you even find grounds to argue that.
I agree with a lot of what you say but acting like fauci is cobra commander or something and controls all these strings is nuts. I think it was something like 50,000 a year for 8 years that went towards this specific lab which fauci had the authority to apply alongside a ton of other labs.
medical science has shown that long covid fucks with the brain. now, is this an “easy out” for stupid people, or do we really have to consider it
Reminder: The neoeugenics movement wants to ban vaccines for the masses, so that the poor will die from preventable diseases.
Disease mutates if left to eat through the masses. It will mutate into something that kills them too. What an idiotic idea, I struggle to believe these people actually think this way.
Eugenics: I’ll make better people for you. Stronger, faster, smarter! A race of Harrison Bergerons!
Eugenicists: But what if we could become immune to polio?
“Infection is the best protection” sounds fucking crazy
I get the context, I get the point
But it’s still crazy
Its literally the idea behind a vaccine anyway. You are deliberately infected with something that mimics a marker for the virus (or sometimes a deactivated virus) in order for your body to deal with it before it fucking kills you.
These idiots are arguing for vaccines without even knowing it.
That’s the idea behind Edward Jenner’s smallpox vaccine, but only a few modern vaccines give live pathogens, or even neutralised pathogens as vaccines.
The COVID RNA vaccines (e.g. Pfizer/Moderna) contained messenger RNA that gave instructions to your body to construct proteins found on the surface of the COVID virus (specifically the spike proteins). Your immune system would then train itself on them.
You’re not getting a small dose of virus, or even any parts of the virus, dead or alive. You’re getting instructions on how to make a substance that the virus also contains. It’s very impressive tech, but I do worry that it could be given blanket approval post-covid. The RNA instructions are just a delivery mechanism. What matters, from a safety point of view, is what the instructions tell the body to make.
Well yes, I was simplifying for the sake of the layman. Either way youre using a marker for your immune system to target.
I will admit Ive been out of the game, so to speak, long before mRNA vaccines became available so I cant comment on the risks.
There’s so much mis/dis-information around this stuff I think it’s worth being precise. Otherwise you get people arguing with each other where neither side is correct and it’s strawmen all round.
I get it. We’ve all been taught vaccines are all variations on a theme, but I think most have taken the wrong bit. As you say, the theme is training the immune system on something. It’s not where that something comes from.
There’s people who are scared of vaccines because “they’re rewriting our DNA”. It’s crap, but it’s because someone heard about mRNA. They’ve misunderstood and become alarmed. That then starts spreading. Telling people “You’ve misunderstood this new amazing tech” lands a lot better than “That’s not even how vaccines work” and then explaining something that isn’t the COVID vaccine.
I swear these grifters, if enough of their fan base dies too fast, will suddenly call it “The Trump Money shot” because vaccine is a dirty word for them.
It’s like saying, “The best way to defend yourself from a fight is to intentionally provoke others, then let your ass get kicked when it happens.”
Whereas getting vaccinated would be, “Learn self-defense beforehand,” with masking and social distancing being, “and avoid getting into fights in the first place.”
remember rand paul is the other SENATOR of kentucky, along with mitch.
So the good folk of Kentucky are represented by one dead senator and the other just brain-dead. I wonder what their internal monologue is convincing themselves that this is something that actually succeeds in “owning the libs”
My favorite is that these chucklefucks treat COVID like it was all Dr Fauci’s fault, as if every major country in the world didn’t also have vaccine strategies in place. The moment you explain the rest of the world doing it better than America, they stare at you like deer in headlights.
they still believe china created it.
They believe FAUCI created it in a secret lab in Wuhan China.
Rand Paul seems sensible on other issues. Why is he so stubborn on covid?
In my estimation, he has reasonable views about 25% of the time, but the other 75% is batshit crazy. There is no middle ground.
Pretty standard for a Libertarian, in my experience.
His dad seemed way more decent and sensible during his attempt at a presidential run. Rand has always been kind of a sandy little butthole.
He’s a fucking idiot, and so are you
The clownest shit and from a new user. Nice try.
I don’t think the “science” Rand Paul follows is really science .
I think the problem was rooted in public trust. Many people were required to vaccine due to their work or where they lived and vaccine manufacturers were largely sheltered from product lawsuits. Putting these two things together has a corrosive effect on public trust.
https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/can-i-sue-if-im-harmed-by-the-coronavirus-vaccine.html
2 policies were anti science.
Requiring vaccines for people who had already recovered.
Removing (particularly mask) requirements for people who had been vaccinated.
trump politicized the hell out of it, thats where its coming from.
What injuries? Who has been denied a case here? The standard requiring documented negligence seems completely reasonable, these are highly studied and highly documented items.
If you ride an elevator and you get a headache, you can’t just sue the elevator manufacturer. That elevator was inspected at every step and was known to work, there is a very high bar for you to prove that the elevator caused the headache. Bringing lawyers in is a waste of everyone’s time and money. Vaccines, even the coronavirus vaccines, are 100x as safe as those elevators.
Americans are over-litigious and uneducated about medicine.
It’s not so much that Americans are uneducated… it’s more that they’ve developed a resistance to being educated…one could perhaps say they’re vaccinated against knowledge.
Didn’t the earlier AstraZeneca vaccine eventually get pulled due to possible links to Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis? Ultimately, it doesn’t matter. A lot of people are going to be upset at having a mandate when recourse to justice if the vaccine goes wrong is pulled before the effects are fully studied.
Yes it did. But that one was also a traditional vaccine, not an mRNA one that these idiots screamed conspiracy about.
They used that to throw doubt on all vaccines in general.
Unless he faked the creds.
