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.
At left we see an example of a phenomenon that seems to be happening with increasing frequency: a life-long Republican saying “enough” and refusing vote for the current version of the GOP.
I applaud people who have both:
a) the intelligence to see where a party has crossed a moral line, and is now operating as a criminal enterprise.
b) the inner courage to do this, as it is hard for most people to admit they were wrong after a lifetime of kneejerk reactions, especially on a topic of such importance.
Someone commented on the meme here: “Don’t forget your jihadi prayer group meeting.”
One would think that Republicans could see the stark contrast between John McCain (honest, sane, decent American hero) and Donald Trump (criminal sociopath and traitor to his country).
But alas.
