Antivaxxer madness

[Doctor Phibes]

She's repulsive.

[Axtremus]

Nah, she's just saying that Trump's Operation Warp Speed produced impotent duds. That's what you think too, right, @Jolly?

[Jolly]

What she's saying is that the vaccines are not as effective as portrayed.

In that, she's right.

[LuFins Dad]

I’ll disagree here, the vaccines aren’t as effective against the Delta variant. Against Alpha and other variants? They have been incredible.

No, her words are literally that the vaccines do not reduce the spread of the virus. She didn't qualify that as "not as much as what was portrayed."

[Jolly]

That's not how they were sold.

That has nothing to do with what she actually said in that tweet.

[Jolly]

Not putting words in her mouth, but I know where she's coming from (see Interesting Speech thread)

I’ll disagree. They always addressed that the numbers were against serious disease. They were upfront that there would be some breakthrough cases.

[Doctor Phibes]

Nobody should be defending this crap.

[Jolly]

People elected her, knowing her political stances on this stuff. Constantly telling people they're full of crap will not change their minds.

Yeah, people elected AOC, too. If that's the best defence you've got, you may find yourself needing to power up the Jewish Space Laser.

[Jolly]

Nope, same thing. Even AOC occasionally has a decent idea.

[Axtremus]

You’ll never tell the people who voted for AOC that they are full of crap, right, right?

[Jolly]

Where the hell did you come up with that half-baked piece of bullshit extrapolation?

She’s the equivalent of AOC. She’s what happens when you elect an absolute moron who has the support of her local gang.

Her words are indirectly KILLING people. Absolute insanity.

If this thread has taught me anything it's that I no longer question how in the fuck pineapple on pizza ever happened.

Honestly, I don't see any reason to give the whacko outliers any more attention than they deserve. Which is to say none.
