If you’re going to be a part of the cult that is far-right-wing U.S. politics, you need to buy into at least some part (preferably all) of the story surrounding this country’s “corrupt” reaction to COVID-19. This includes:
Our government deliberately wanted to hurt our economy and school system with unnecessary shutdowns, masking, social distancing regimens, and vaccinations. Various groups, e.g., the Centers for Disease Control, and individual people, e.g., Anthony Fauci, were especially responsible for all this.
The meme here speaks to how ludicrous these belief systems are.
On top of this, I would ask the Fox News crowd to ask themselves how and why each one of the other 200+ sovereign countries around the world came to create its own set of protocols designed to ruin its home economy. Did the Germans and the Brazilians collude with Dr. Fauci, or did they commit economic suicide, for no real reason, without any help from the U.S.?
Stupid is as stupid does.
I have such respect for Pascal that I considered naming our son after him. (My wife wasn’t having it. Maybe if we lived in France?)
Pascal made important contributions to both math and physics but he’s perhaps best known for his philosophic “wager,” that it makes sense to believe in God, since if He exists, you’ll be very glad you did, and if He doesn’t, you haven’t lost anything. I counter that this is not how we accept or reject religious tenets.
“Republican Patriots” writes: Howard Stern once again reveals the contempt so many in the entertainment elite hold for everyday Americans. He claims not to hate President Trump himself, but openly declares his hatred for those who support him, calling them stupid and saying he has no respect for them. This kind of arrogant dismissal shows how out of touch these Hollywood types have become with the hardworking people who built this country.
I’ve got news: contempt for Trump supporters is hardly limited to “these Hollywood types.” The vast majority of Americans–especially at this point–are neither greedy pigs nor hateful morons. We respect human rights and rule of law.
Can’t something be done to stop this lunatic?
