"SNIP......


Stat: “In Idaho, a lawmaker introduced a bill that would define vaccine mandates — of any kind — as a form of assault. In Florida, a prominent state senator has called for a review of all vaccine requirements, including those for immunizations that have enjoyed wide public acceptance for decades, like polio and the measles, mumps, and rubella shot. And in Montana, the Republican governor recently signed into law a new bill that forbids businesses, including hospitals, from enforcing any vaccination requirements as a condition of employment.”

1. GOP: not willing to let a chance at Social Darwinism go by without using it

[Irish_Dem]

2. So sick people in hospitals will be exposed to contagious medical staff.

Wonderful. The GOP doesn't care how many people they kill.

[applegrove]

3. Any way to reduce or diminish the underclass who now vote for Republicans.

Sickos. The wealthy and educated will continue to get a vaccine. This is truly class warfare..

[Irish_Dem]

4. The GOP just sees the deaths as minor collateral damage in their quest for power.

Yes they want division and internal war.

[Septua]

5. Anti-vaxx ain't going away...

..so herd immunity will eventually run its course and some number of people will die unnecessarily as a result. if the anti-vaxxers can't be convinced otherwise, I got no pity for them.

6. The big win for Republicans is that it teaches callousnesss.

That is terrible. A big change.

[rickyhall]

7. So the Dems get vaxxed and the repugs die of disease. Tell me that's a bad thing.

Isn't that like shooting yourself in the foot.

11. Oh I bet that isn't exactly the plan

The vaccines will become expensive at some point. Then watch what happens to people that can't afford them.

[Quixote1818]

8. So the next time there is a more dangerous pandemic, Republicans may end up mostly snuffed out

Could happen.

10. Which is what Republicans want. They don't need the uneducated underclass

once Trump is gone. The fewer poor and middle class the fewer voters who will then vote against autocracy once they see clearly how bad inequality can be.

[NickB79]

9. And we move one step closer to "Idiocracy"

[LastDemocratInSC]

13. And one step closer to a world reminiscent

of Steve Martin's "Theodoric of York, medieval barber" character on SNL long ago.

12. Freaking repugs are actively trying to kill us now.
