    Without question? What gives you that impression?

    But as to the first group you mentioned: https://twitter.com/TizzyEnt/status/1430658074377924618
    In case you think I'm too harsh on anti vaxxers, from my pov y'all not being harsh enough.

    I just want to emphasize: the "I'm not a sheep" crowd is taking a drug that literally has a sheep on the bottle.

    You cannot make this shit up.

    I swear, somewhere, someone with a ton of money and sick sense of humour is making all of this happen for shits and giggles.

    I know that this is probably the wrong thread for this comment, but Aetius obviously knows his Twitter (so he can find it; I know I can't).

    Did any of y'all see a really interesting thread about a bunch of right-wing/ Trump-toadies actually being out of work actors recruited from the same talent agency?
    I'm talking about people like Lauren Boebert, Candice Owens, and that dumbass bimbo Melissa Carone.

    If this is the wrong place to to post/ ask this, one of the mods can move it.

    They are hoping for herd immunity.

    Sorry, I was out all day - did someone do that one already?

    This.

    Everything changed or should have changed when this started being something more and more dangerous to kids.

    I got vaccinated in early April and admittedly while I'm firmly in the 'listen to the doctors and people smarter than yourself' group of thinking I had some minor hesitations about whether or not it was really something I needed to do. Today I'm extremely frustrated with my ex who refuses to get vaccinated and insists on taking the munchkins to group plays with her covid denying/essential oil loving conspiracy loving friends.

    I've got some real dread about when vaccines become available for the kiddos. We've actually been in a pretty peaceful co-parenting relationship for the last year and this is going to turn into a shit show of a disagreement because we have an equal medical say with the littles.

    Want to expand on this a little? How does this relate to the pandemic?

    I'm glad the Supreme Court shot down the eviction moratorium. The fact that 3 justices think that the CDC should have that level of authority is troubling, though.

    Buddy of mine posted a pic on FB with the caption *feeling thankful* "Wifey and I are finally headed home" He's on a plane with oxygen tubes in his nose. Caught covid which turned into pneumonia. He was the guy who up until a month ago was constantly posting how masks don't work, it's a plandemic, will never get the vaccine , etc etc. I'm curious if his outlook changed.

    You say you hate to see it. But you kinda don't.

    So a sheriff in Georgia did the usual anti-vax social media posts, then posts about ivermectin, and finally a news article about his death. I say that because it's the context for this reply in the comments:

    Stop having sheriffs. Stop having their moronic, corrupt deputies. You guys have city police, state police, Capitol police, highway patrol, Rangers. You don’t need “county police”/sheriff departments fronted by some brain-dead politician who never learned human social queues.

    I'm sorry if this has been brought up before, but I don't check this thread every day:

    Remember when this virus first started? Remember the videos coming out of China of people dying in the streets?

    Did that ever happen here, with our much fatter, mask resistant population?

    Does anyone else think those videos may have been fake, or "repurposed"?
