They have no shame. They must realize they're saying moronic bullshit, and I have to bet their legacy is going to be the butt of jokes for centuries. Even if they get their way for the next 50 years, future historians will be confronted by the stupidity of MAGA and will write about it. I would be so embarrassed.
It's most definitely sarcasm, but i thought it wouldn't require the /s. I was hoping someone would get the double hit with the birds aren't real thing!
Do you believe that newborn babies should be required to get a Hepatitus-b shot on day 1? I don't, and if I hadn't intercepted the nurses taking my newborn this would have been done without us knowing. Hep-b comes from sex and iv drug use (and others like blood transfusion of infected blood, but rare).
Did you believe in Covid vaccine mandates? The science now proves that it did nothing to prevent transmission. RFK Jr. was right and was called a conspiracy theorist.
Did you believe that children should get the Covid vaccine? Not one healthy child died from covid. Look it up.
Furthermore, RFK may have founded the organization that sells this merchandise, he no longer has anything to do with them and has resigned from the board.
To say "he sells anti-vaccine merchandise" is innacurate and uninformed.
This is a study from 2021 when social distancing, mask mandates and vaccines were mandated; all 3 of which have proven to be far less effective than advertised. If you go to the CDC, NIH and WHO sites, today, you will not see any verbiage on transmission.
"Of the study results, 75% (21/28) showed a significant effect of vaccinated versus unvaccinated index cases on the vaccine effectiveness against transmission ranging from 16% to 95%; the remaining 25% (7/28) of the study results did not show a significant effect of COVID-19 vaccination of index cases. In 81% (17/21) of these study results, effectiveness against transmission was >30% and 57% (12/21) of the study results were >50%. Effectiveness against transmission seems to be lower for the more recent variants of concern, ranging from 39% to 75% during the pre-delta period, 24% to 65% during delta, and from 16% to 31% during the omicron period."
Interesting read. Thanks for the link.
Its disappointing that the study was only for 28, and then 21 individuals for these results.
Its alarming to see the efficacy drop from strain to strain to a low of 16% during the omnicron period(which we are in now) . This study is from before September 2023. Im curious to see more recent results.
Unfortunately it probably takes a year or two to compile data and crunch it all, and interest/funding has waned. The bivalent vaccine may be a lesser match for omnicron, or omnicron may have more varieties.
From what I've read vaccinated people have as high a peak viral load as unvaccinated, but they do clear it faster. So while infectious, a vaccinated person would remain infectious for a shorter period. How much shorter can obviously vary as that study saw.
When’s the last time you heard about Holly smoot? That was dumb as fuck too about 100 years ago.
We’re doing the exact same thing and nobody is bringing it up. Sure they say it’s stupid to tariff but nobody is saying we’ve actually been down those road like 4 times in 250 years
Obviously it’s two different lawmakers who introduced the bill. Jesus don’t they teach anything other than clip of a movie with Ben Stein. Most bills are named after lawmakers.
Edit: Another famous example of this is Sarbox - Sen. Paul Sarbanes (D–MD) and Rep. Michael G. Oxley (R–OH-4), the co-sponsors of the Sarbanes–Oxley Act
I think we're talking about different levels of stupid. A failed tariff is not on the same level as an antivax as health secretary. This is like instead of arguing tariffs and taxes, they go back to bartering and abolished the dollar.
That’s a round about straw man to the actual point. Getting carpetbagged into a tariff war is what kicked the whole country off in the first place.
It goes like this in like 50-75 year cycles you have a massive boom of growth either by technology advances or the sudden influx of free labor via slaves or offshoring. Which is the same thing. So about once a century and almost like clockwork there is a massive influx of capital towards something resourceful and that leads to Dutch disease.
So the order of operations is exploit labor for growth to boom economy to exploit to frenzy as growth grinds to a haul to people stealing the bag via tarrifs and consolidating to massive labor uprising and concentration camps as you need 3 things for capitalism to work.
An exploitable but somehow educated enough to be competent workforce.
Stolen resources and/or labor.
A scapegoat for the educated labor to be mad at.
Regardless of who is in power, a king a pharaoh a warlord a president a pope.
Only one thing in the history of man that defeated and will always defeat these powerful is knowledge passed to communities. The people have the power united against tyranny.
Usually the messenger of that is publicly murdered but not in America.
Almost every culture on earth has been the receiving end of these three things by the same lizard fucks for thousands of years.
America when it was formed after the resurfacing of Greek senate ideas in France was to be the end of all that. The end of the 10,000 years of being under a boot.
Oh they definitely know, my girlfriend's brother and his wife are super into the maga cult and the wife has been running this local group for a few years where they show up EVERYWHERE with trump flags and propaganda. During Thanksgiving I got curious and asked her if she knew most of the stuff she was spreading made 0 sense or had any credible sources and she basically told me she knew they were "a little bit exaggerated" but its what had to be done to get Americans motivated.
