“If the goal of these people is to advance public health and make the public well, why have none of them spoke a single word about prevention and making one healthy to prevent an infection or hospitalization or death?” McDonald said, according to the Times.

Three words for you, Dr. Demento: J&J, Pfizer and Moderna.

The one common denominator in all of this crazy is Donald J. Trump. He gave permission to act out the impulses most people push aside.

The trick is to make life so shitty, the afterlife is generally a better option.

I think this is actually true for lots of the white boomer male antivaxxers too, but they won’t admit it. Fox has them so worked up about their horrible lot in life, they are opting for martyrdom as a way out.

Yeah, that sounds about right. It’s like Trump and the alien sperm/demon dream sex doctor, crazy Stella Immanuel.

It’s like my brother once said: “You don’t just run into people this fucking stupid and crazy. You have to go out of your way to find them.”

What the Hell. I can not even imagine what makes an educated person act like that.
A Grudge? To get even? To get attention? He knows people will die from it. Why isn’t he prosecuted, he is knowingly misleading people to their deaths.
