    Also…

    medical contrarians, many of whom have expressed skepticism

    goddamn, I wish outlets would stop misusing these terms. Being a dipshit denier is not “skepticism”. It has zero to do with real skepticism, FFS. Conspiracy theory circle-jerking is the exact opposite of skepticism.

    That puppet of him they have on Kimmel is so hilarious.

    Anyway, I remember telling people to get current on any outstanding vaccines while they still could…because these anti-scientific dickwads are hellbent on fucking it up for EVERYONE. It’s not enough for them to merely drive down the herd immunity (something these sister-fuckers think is part of the conspiracy man! It’s right there! It says “herd” - they think we are just sheep to be managed and culled when needed! Don’t you see!!!) in general, they want to ultimately ensure no one can get vaccinated because…reasons.

    Assholes. I hate these people so very much. Republicans ruin every goddamn thing.

      It says here on your chart that…you’re fucked up.

      The rest of this quote would get me downvoted. For the character it works, because he’s supposed to be ignorant and crude like everyone else.

    So, it sort of makes me think, if a vaccine panel is staffed by anti-experts, couldn’t the former vaccine panel, you know, still make their decisions and give their recommendations to hospitals?

      I was thinking that too. It’d be nice. But ultimately the big things like vaccine insurance coverage needs the imprimatur of the government.

      Still, would be real good to have a turnkey panel for the next administration (in theory) to swap back in.

    If there were any sort of loving karma/god/presence in this universe, this man would contract a preventable disease causing his demise.

      Hitler escaped a considerable number of assassination attempts. If anyone is in charge out there, they’re a huge dick.

        Have you ever read the Odyssey or any polytheistic myths? The gods are fucking each other over about as much as they fucking us over, the only ones who have our backs are the underworld and craftsman gods.

      You know the pilots on Air India 101 from 2018 where they were scrambling to keep the airplane going despite the mechanics not having really done their job?

      Thats the worm right now.
