@LarpingRN @leftyvegan @casanumarx @blackintheempir Got it. Thank you. Had missed him saying that. Curious if it’s just another lie or something he was briefed on.
@nacaryus @caitoz Are you sure? This may be an unfortunately ambiguous message meant differently by different folks. I’d not be surprised at least some were saying it as you say.
To the extent it’s praising the Nazis, I’m opposed. Genocide is wrong whether you’re a Nazi or Israel doing it.
@nacaryus @caitoz You back folks who kill children as an accepted “collateral damage.”
Whether it’s the US or Israel or anywhere else, it’s wrong. The more powerful country bears the burden to not kill children bc it’s more convenient than waiting for a better time.
@plantingforbees@charles_merriam @Quicktake Halves is not fucking enough. That isn’t immunity. It’s barely protection.
You now get to flip a coin to see if you will dodge Long covid when you would’ve previously gotten it for sure. Heads you’re good, tails you get organ damage & a worse life for months, years, or forever.
@SurLaColline@JordanSchachtel What the fuck?
OP: Pharma companies are gouging taxpayers on a vaccine where we paid for the research. This should cost less. (More $$ for nurses etc)
You: Pfizer deserves the $$ bc 650000 died. The dead people would’ve paid 10k. Let’s pay Pfizer 10k per shot. That’s the value!
@GefilteCommie@TheGladTitan @RichMcGowanMD It’s getting harder to tell, for me at least. He has done nothing but carry water for all of Biden’s terrible shit. I mean, he was going to vote for Neera Tanden, for fuck’s sake.
He never went hard at Biden. Not once. See how Gabbard (who otherwise mostly sucks) punched Harris.
@FT1965@RevDrBarber@JoyAnnReid You’re only missing one part. Dem leaders will get the bill Dem leaders wanted, which is the same as what GOP wants. The bill Dem voters are supporting is opposed by Dem leaders, which is why D leaders will act like they’re fucking stupid & couldn’t possibly see this coming.
@ryangrim@KimIversenShow There are issues of compounding problems when a system is overwhelmed. More people die by some difficult to calculate margin. This is why getting winter data on blue states would be helpful. One would expect the gap to close, at a minimum. The change in the gap would tellus a lot
@KimIversenShow@ryangrim I’m impressed by the attempt to get people to try to understand how to make appropriate comparisons. It’s a thankless & in fact unpleasant job as almost everyone thinks they understand it better, despite no formal training.
Hats off & at least a few of us appreciate the effort!✊
@leftyvegan @casanumarx @blackintheempir I’d also like a source on that. I’m open to it being true, but lots of folks just make up shit or trust a liar.
@JennyKastner@Shrdlu It has a higher protection against death but given long covid showing up even in mild cases & the number of folks still getting long covid after being vaxxed x2, that makes it a good backup plan, but a real shit primary defense, unless you like brain damage, ED, & fatigue.
@JennyKastner@Shrdlu “Works” is an interesting word.
It reduces infection by some degree.
The study out of Israel showed 39% protection vs infection.
Look at polio, smallpox, & mmr vaccines. 99, 95, & 97/88/97% protection from INFECTION! & no Long covid type breakthroughs as we see now.
@nacaryus @caitoz Their justification is the exact same bullshit the US uses when it murders children. “Uh, there was a bad guy nearby.” So, is it the child’s fault? Wtf is wrong with everyone who thinks this is ok?
@nacaryus @caitoz Some fight & some just want the world to acknowledge what’s happening. Much as the US & the rest of world abandoned the Jewish people fleeing the Nazis & famously turned back ships leading to the deaths of children the world now ignores Israel’s murder of children.
