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.

[-] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 28 points 6 days ago

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!

[-] ConstantPain@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

What capitalist interest is behind this decision?

[-] NatakuNox@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

The largest transfer of wealth is going to happen in the next 10 years. Western nations need to deplete and indebted the population to the wealthy. They are using Healthcare, education, and the economy to bring about this wealth capture. They can't allow zoomers and millennials to get there hands on all the money their parents accumulate. Otherwise, their labor force will suddenly have better options.

Where are them Epstein Files and such?!

[-] IzzyJ@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

Being burned so they can be used as a distraction from the fascism forever

[-] mateofeo85@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

I mean, let’s say he released them with his name all over it and video evidence, what would really happen at this point? We’re already in the fascist machine.

[-] AlexLost@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Yeah but it annoys They/Them to no end when we ask. It's the least I can do.

[-] theacharnian@lemmy.ca 25 points 6 days ago

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

Oh fuck.

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Really, you don't? They are the dumbest people I've ever seen.

[-] ClydapusGotwald@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

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

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

I've been looking for a way to leave, but man it's expensive.

[-] ClydapusGotwald@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Yep it’s expensive and you’d basically need a job instantly. Even moving to different states has the same issues but more so with countries. I fucking hate this timeline.

[-] JackFrostNCola@aussie.zone 7 points 5 days ago

"The USA, where we deport the browns and kill whats left over"

[-] CircaV@lemmy.ca 18 points 6 days ago

Oh that’s an intelligent policy decision

Two idiots are better than one.

[-] jazir5@lemmy.ml 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

So this is effectively an ad for the COVID vaccines, hello the walk in appointment I'm actively waiting for! I'll have fun getting it in 5-10 minutes!

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 6 points 6 days ago

Family members just went in yesterday for shots at CVS, but Covid isn't in yet. They're thinking early September. So they got flu and something else.

If it comes out in early September, I'd get my butt in there right away, before they ban it.

Fucking psychopaths.

[-] jazir5@lemmy.ml 3 points 6 days ago

They didn't have the new version only last years, still got it though.

[-] muusemuuse@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 days ago

When are this years shots going to be available?

They should ban it for Republicans only

[-] aramova@infosec.pub 14 points 6 days ago

You know these fuckers will keep a supply in the works for themselves.

Class wars, disasters, make people need a savior.

That's the whole fucking game, and the ignorant cunts keep voting for it

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

And they will have a good supply of horse dewormer for the sisterfuckers to "cure" themselves with.

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 7 points 6 days ago

It's available in other countries, so rich MAGA Nazis will ALWAYS be able to get it. The rest of us, not so much.

Question: since Trump was the administration in charge of those vaccines, can we sue the president for releasing an "dangerous" vaccine, "harming" Americans?

Like, you can't have it both ways. You can't hate the COVID vaccine and ignore that it was done under Trump's administration. I'm so confused, my head hurts, these people are fucking stupid.

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

The cons are masters of doublethink.

We are in the dumbest fucking timeline

[-] MourningDove@lemmy.zip 14 points 6 days ago

Every possible version of it.

[-] tehn00bi@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

Still waiting for TVA to prune us.

[-] Anti_Iridium@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Tennessee Valley Authority?

[-] canajac@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 days ago

In 1000 years from now history books will not include the years 2016 to 2028.

[-] stupe@lemmy.zip 47 points 1 week ago

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

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

I also remember how they lied and said that they were free speech absolutists, too. Now they are fine with Taco suing everyone for being mean to him and wanting to lock up people like Schiff.

[-] Nougat@fedia.io 47 points 1 week ago

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.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
