You are preaching to the choir. I keep on saying that we need to get their genes out of the gene pool. Their stupidity is absolutely inexcusable. As for the article: Well done!

I have no more fucks to give to people so eaten up with willful ignorance and hate that they will choose death over basic science. They have their freedom.

and I'm right there with you, LKTIV, cheering them on to their graves. I truly feel the world will be better off with fewer willfully ignorant or intellectually lazy and selfishly angry people.

The bonus will be voter restrictions will be imposed on THEIR side by natural elimination.

Kudos to Darwinism

The conservatives are doing terrific at lowering their numbers! Did the democrats go in and mandate no masks? NO!! The Republicans did a fine job taking care of that idiotic move! They’re doing a fine job of lowering Republican numbers. Stupid? Yes! Pitiful? Yes! But they can’t blame the Democrats for that!

Compassion; (‘sorry folks) ‘but it is crucial that we understand the psychological warfare that the population has been exposed to.

“Little seeds of doubt, the result of swallowing little bitty lies in an exquisite package of propaganda.

The power and agenda for which the Fox machine is the Pez dispenser, preceded by all those stupid checkout counter rags; have been nibbling away at the general public for some time now and the pattern of cult consciousness is now in trenched.

In my experience that pattern persists

through all evidence to the contrary and the harm that it does.

We lost the handle to the train way back in the Reagan administration and even earlier when McCarthy put the whole propaganda machine in motion.

The same madness is now pandemic throughout the world.

Be grateful if you can see it.

Keep it simple, be patient and above all kind. And for god’s sake don’t let yourself get caught between the lemmings and the cliff.

‘Luvyatabits!

Well done, Lucian. As reported by the Editor-in-chief of "The Week," Denmark is beating Covid. With 86% of Danes vaccinated, their death rate has consistently been 22% of the United States', and currently daily deaths are below 10. They are flocking to concerts and bars, celebrating their freedom. The reason? Trust. A recent survey showed that 90% of Danes trust their national health authorities and public decision makers.

The greater evil is our society's bad habit of tolerating men like Greg Abbott, Ron DeSantis, and Steve Bannon who get rich off the gullible. Freedom of speech must have a definable rule concerning predators who can and do kill thousands if not millions of fools.

They are eminently deathworthy. Slow motion Jonestown. I hope it wipes out every single one of them.

Funny. I was saying the same thing to my husband today. In NC we are cursed with Burr (outgoing in a year) and Tillis (just reelected last fall) in the Senate. They've laid pretty low re: the fascist right and the antivax crazies, but they've generally lurked in the shadows. Burr has nothing to lose (except a lobbying position) and Tillis was just reelected, but they have no ... courage to stand up and confront the lunatics. There must be more than just Cheney and Kinzinger, but they are utterly and completely spineless and without morals. Despicable.

There are legions of methods for them to choose to off themselves that DON’T include taking me with them. I cannot understand Repugnican disdain for saving a life, and being lead around by the nose (thinking something else here but I am a lady!) by a lying, sniveling snake: the orange cobra who used to slither through White House.

They don't call it the Manson-Nixon line for nothing....

When I hear that twisted and upside down "logic," I am reminded only of children - children who have that "you can't make me do it" level of obstinance. If they think that the "libs" are forcing them to remain unvaccinated and to embrace death, then I guess they are owning the fact that they are either imbeciles, have some sort of oppositional disorder (and therefore are emotionally disturbed), or are simply so immature they can't think beyond the level of a six year old. Whatever the root cause of their choice to die, I do agree that Darwin is at work here and as someone wrote below, this refusal is clearly "thinning the herd" and changing the denominator. I just hope to be able to vote in 2022 and 2024.

And on a side note, in this small town of central Texas, where the superintendent and school board took a stand to save students and staff by requiring masks, tonight yet another crazed parent is bringing before the school board another request to ban masks. This, after the drastic escalation of cases was slowed because of the mask requirement...back to death as usual, it appears. Only this time, the herd being thinned are children who have no choice in the matter and teachers and other staff who are at risk.
