I don't think that the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Academy of Family Physicians, the Food and Drug Administration, or the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices told us ANY of those things.
But I agree. Political polling is inaccurate and Critical Race Theory exists, so medical science doesn't work anymore. Excellent point.

And whose fault is that?
people who refuse a vaccine that works because their political party tells them it doesn't.
and Yeti sticker assholes.

It's perfectly understandable that large groups of people in America, that have been repeatedly lied to and demonized by the government and its support institutions for years (if not decades), would become extremely - even irrationally - distrustful of anything the government and other captured institutions would promote. But everyone is so shocked! SHOCKED!

If you really think about it, they aren’t responsible for their actions at all.

If you really, really think about it, by rejecting those institutions they are engaging in antiracist activism

When are the White Saviors going to fix the whole inner city black people don't care about the vaccine thing? Sending Fauci door to door a few weeks back didn't seem to work.

I'm not saying there isn't a reason to distrust the government on many things. All I'm saying is that the lack of belief in the statistics that the vaccine works along with the general distrust has exposed a huge vulnerability in our ability to survive something that comes along in the future that is more deadly than covid

I agree but we've been going down this road for awhile. China and Russia certainly know this. They probably knew it before covid. I don't think it's even fixable at this point.

The horrifying, lovecraftian beauty of globalism is that my comment applies everywhere else, too.

Rocking out to this PSA now and it's a real banger. He even throws his Weinstein pal under the bus for his vaccine-questioning misdeeds.
For the record this is the first time I've used the ":bammer:" emoji and I now "get" the bammer account.
