Attacks on Fauci grow more intense, personal and conspiratorial

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

For over a year, Anthony Fauci has been a bogeyman for conservatives, who have questioned his handling of the Covid-19 pandemic and accused him of quietly undermining then-President Donald Trump.

But those attacks took on a whole new level of vitriol this week, to the point that one social media analysis described it as highly misleading and at least one platform pulled down some posts, citing false content.

It all stemmed from a tranche of Fauci’s emails that were published as part of a Freedom of Information Act request filed by various news outlets. Within hours of publication, the hashtag #FauciLeaks was trending on Twitter, accusing the nation’s top infectious disease doctor of lying under oath about the origins of Covid. It became a trending topic on Facebook too, where detractors added an inaccurate and more nefarious framing that the emails were secretly “leaked” — drawing on a playbook that has worked for partisans on the right in the past, despite the fact that Fauci's publicly disclosed emails were not state secrets.

Reddit and Facebook lit up with a fresh round of Fauci attacks, some of which called him a war criminal. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), perhaps Fauci’s most prominent bete noire on the Hill, quickly released Facebook ads demanding to “fire Fauci” and requesting a campaign donation.

The attacks will be ineffective outside the MAGAsphere.

1. This is all they're talking about right now

Fauci funded the creation of Covid. They think they have emails that are clear evidence. They have nothing. Fauci is a target solely because he dissed Trump.

12. The GQP

hates science or should I say they hate everyone, except their corporate donors. We are dealing with lot of cold hearted people in the GQP. Fauci is a good person and he knows his stuff.

2. They need to blame someone for the orange maggots disastrous handling of the pandemic

Those with any sense know Dr. Fauci is a true hero and truth teller. He was the only one I believed in during the height of the pandemic.

10. This exactly. They have to have a scapegoat to shift the blame...

for 500k covid deaths from trump. It won't work as this will die down soon. Joe can see through that and is not getting rid of Fauci.

3. Desperately trying to nail anything on Fauci. Desperately trying to pin anything on Pres. Biden too

but no milkshake.

The gop is desperately trying to be relevant and spot on w/ its objections and counterpoints, and they are failing miserably since they relied on using the mumbled and confusing statements by rump as a direction or a guidance for the gop.

The gop needs to break w/ rump or they will face disaster. Maybe somebody will have the courage to stand up in the gop and say that it's time for new faces but I doubt it.

Overcoming the worse president in recent history as well as his constant onslaught of lies, deceit, and incompetence is going to be a lot harder than the gop realizes...besides just paying for their usual campaign ads against the Democratic party and our candidates, they have to run ads to restore confidence back into the gop in overcoming trump's lying, deceitful, and gross incompetence (and wearing his pants backwards).

4. Exactly! They can't seem to make anything stick on Biden, so Fauci, that isn't working...

8. '.. a bogeyman for conservatives...'

'He's not the Bogeyman. He's the one you sent TO KILL the fucking Bogeyman.'

Let them come lol. Dr. Fauci will 'John Wick' the everliving FUCK out of these fools. Headshot after headshot after headshot.
All Day, Every Day.

The Babayaga of Biology. Suck it, anti-vaxxers.

9. "Origin of Covid-19" has become the lead story on Fox News and

Fauci is their convient villain. They even devote more propaganda time to this "story" now than they do "the border". Fox News is ruining this man's life and the lives of his family by inciting magats to hate him by making up conspiracies he is supposedly complicit in and can be used to blame someone other than Trump. They don't care if they get him or his loved ones killed.

Fox News invents their stories they can use to fill up air time and sell advertising. They've been doing it for a long time and getting away with it and now he is their unfortunate victim.
