    I don't care. Honestly, why should I? If they can't understand the science, it isn't my job to instruct them. I'm certainly not hoping that vaccinated people get sick with the disease. I have no idea how you got that from my post. HE HAS THE DISEASE. HE HAS SYMPTOMS. He's already sick. My wish for Lindsey is that he is as miserable as I was. Because he's a horror of a human being.

    Isn't this the SECOND TIME he's tested positive?

    At some point we have to assume that Conservatives don't wash their hands, like ever.

    And we will all support his stance there because the only people who will listen to him are the people we want to die by their own hands anyway.

    Who says we want to stop the spread now?

    Now that we have vaccines that prevent death and ventilators, maybe we want all the Conservatives and anti-vaxxers to get COVID and die so they can't vote in next year's midterms.

    Maybe we want all those people to suffer, get sick and lose their jobs.

    Maybe we want them to die alone in an ER because they were so arrogantly abusing everyone.

    Maybe mass death of Conservatives from COVID would be a good thing for society.


    Nothing tells folks that they made the "right decision" like watching vaccinated folks get sick.
    Great! And at this point, I don't think they should get vaccinated.

    At this point, they should try and dodge the virus for the next 15 months.

    Enough of them won't, and it's going to make the difference in at least 1 narrow election next year....so I fully support you muddying the vaccination waters by indulging their doubt because I know it will lead to at least some deaths of people who we can do without anyway.

    It is your job though if you life in reality. Convince people, or find that your vaccine doesn't stop the next variant. You may be "right" at that moment and capable of "see? I told you" nonsense, but it won't change reality. It might make you feel good, or think you are superior, that you were "right" as you get sick... but it won't change the illness.

    OR we might just see a mass die off of the unvaccinated with THIS variant, which would be a bad thing, why?

    I can stay in my home for another year to avoid other variants, it's not a problem for me.

    He will most likely not experience serious symptoms but he can kill an unvaccinated MAGA with just a sneeze. Such super powers for Lady Lindsey.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    Yup. Vaxxed people continue to get it. Big deal. It'll pass.
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    Get sick...but if I'm vaccinated, I won't end up in the ER.

    So...?
    You have no idea how effective your vaccine is for the "epsilon" variant, or the "zeta" variant. The longer we keep this moving the more likely a variant will find a way around your vaccine. Convincing folks to get the vaccine is pretty much the only way you are going to get it done without fascist nonsense that even you would think is heavy handed.

    Work to convince people, it may save your life.

    This is a bit like saying that some folks keep dying in car accidents so we shouldn't wear seat belts. The vaccine keeps you safer. There is little reason to pretend it doesn't. I can't imagine how it turned around like this. Remember during the election cycle when the left was saying that a vaccine done that quickly was clearly pressured into existence by Trump, now the right are the folks that won't get it.

    I personally got it during testing before the emergency use approval.
