In case it’s not clear enough, successful revocation means NOBODY can get the vaccine.
Ah, a classic move by “the party of personal freedoms”.
I’m fucking moving to Canada if this happens. This is one of the best vaccines ever made.
Wait it even the wealthy? Wonder how many wealthy babies need to suffer before the poors can get their world back.
None. The wealthy can just take a trip to another country if it comes to that.
I mean once you have polio no amount of leisurely travel will cure you…?
But if you are wealthy you can take your kid to a doctor in Canada or something to get vaccinated…
Rules for thee, not the wealthy.
What the fuck my grandpa had a skinny leg and a hole in his back from medical tubes due to polio as a kid, this shit is no joke
Seriously. I’ve said this before here, but travel somewhere the polio vaccine wasn’t widely available. The amount of suffering via deformity and impacted development it causes is frightening.
Highly recommend watching the documentary “Benda Bilili!” about a group of street musicians in Kinshasa, DRC. They’re mostly paralyzed due to childhood polio, but it’s a very uplifting doc. They even sang a lovely song on their debut album about it called Polio.
And he is one of the lucky ones.
Just concentrate on the corn syrup you idiot. Pretty much everyone is on board with that.
And the legalization of weed.
yes. its amazing but there is a small nugget of win in some of their stuff.
A stopped clock…
oh you may not have realized but you accidentally put an l in there.
You have fun finding those nuggets among the fun new slavery and lack of any future elections lol
um. u2. I guess.
That industry will just buy out every room in every Trump hotel for a week and Trump will tell him to shut the fuck up or fire him and hire Joe Exotic.
He’s already got dr Oz lined up in the same position for when he fires Kennedy. I’d bet real money it’ll be on the order of 2 months, so mar 1 or so. He loves telling people they are fired, and he think episodically from 15 seasons of the Apprentice show.
Oh hey, more misinformation from this guy lol
You’ve got some hurt feelings from when we disagreed in another comment, dont you Jeff. You’ve got to let that stuff go. Your downvotes are not my fault.
If I was downvoted, I missed it. I’m just here to call out inaccurate information
You’d think they’re already murdering enough of us with the expensive/delayed/denied healthcare, the starvation wages, the cruel for-profit prisons, the cops, and the refusal to give even emergency abortions…but nope…they want to murder more of us.
#FreeLuigi
RFK Jr is the virus. Luigi is the vaccine.
“No-one even really gets polio anymore, so it’s just a waste of money…”
Holy shit did he really say this??
No
Yeah, that’s something Trump would say.
This is the kind of argument you see from the dipshit vaccine denialists, though. But typically, they like to credit modern septic systems/clean water for a lot of things.
I think it’s really only maybe (younger) boomers and on down that could make the absolutely ridiculous arguments the vaccine denialists make, though. Most of the older people - esp Greatest Generation, but also older boomers, most likely - knew better from having seen children die/suffer from awful diseases.
But yeah, starting with Gen X and on down - the dumbassery around vaccines has slowly started taking off and seems to be getting worse as it goes…
Just have polio partys for children so that they can catch it early and be protected!
Fuck this idiot piece of shit. Hasn’t even started and I’m so sick of this nation again.
Seriously. I’m going to be the most bitter and continuously angry person you’ve ever met by the end of this four years, and I’m not looking forward to it one bit.
Make no mistake though, I’m going to be so free with “aren’t you glad this is what you voted for” to magas in my family and at work that the schadenfreude alone will be enough to power a small city.
Don’t worry, they may only get two years, but the damage they can deal will probably last the rest of your life. And if you’re transgender, the rest of your life might even be done before the two years are up.
I feel like my “being able to tolerate living in a nation led by imbeciles” meter had barely started refilling this past four years. I think I needed 16 or so for something close to a full recharge. I’m prepared to reach new lows.
Kennedy is an imminent threat to the health and safety of our children. I wish the worm would finish the job.
This administration is going to ruin the lives of/kill so many people.
The upside of Covid is that we jump-started vaccine research and have seen so much stuff at scale, and quickly. It might hold huge promise for things like cancer treatment.
And these absolute fucking clowns are going to probably stall all that out. I sure hope other countries are not impacted in any way by this complete idiocy. The idea that complete morons would kill scientific progress like this is infuriating.
Luckily the US isn’t the only country doing medical research.
Hopefully someone just leaks all of the mRNA technical info so that other countries can make them.
Let’s see if even Mitch McConnell would confirm this guy given that he had polio. Don’t have much faith though.
I think the GOP have already proven that they’d rather die than admit they were wrong.
*they would rather kill our children with preventable viruses than admit they were wrong
Surely this Republican who faced hardship won’t want anyone else to go through what he did.
My spanish teacher in middle school had a limp from polio in her childhood and kids would snicker about it behind her back. We have no concept of what polio is anymore
Quick, someone lookup any owners of iron lung manufacturers. It will be one of these schmucks. Always follow the money
Maybe they will drag him in court for that one day, for killing Americans in an un-American way, i.e. without bullets.
I hate that I wish such terrible things on these terrible people.
I once held a long-standing conviction to wish no harm on anyone, even on people doing harm to others. The reasoning was that it would be better if they were to start doing good instead, so that is what I should wish for them: That they fell compelled to undo their mistake. Their pain doesn’t help anyone, so there’s no reason to wish pain on them.
But more and more often, I find myself in your shoes.
Reading the headline and it literally made me do the meme:
