The anti-vaxxers dont give a shit what the Pope says.

(1,687 posts)Beginning of the piece mentions the Pope saying a vaccine is an act of love.
I am tired of the religion crap. Anti-vaxxers, left or right, will use any bullshit and religion is one of their tools. That being said, it is likely the RW anti-vaxxers who wield religion for this purpose likely do not give a shit about what the Pope says. I also would not be surprised if LW anti-vaxxers dont give a crap either.
So big deal if the Pope said what he said. The anti-vaxxers dont give a crap. Their selfish distorted worldview cant include that. They are too busy wallowing in conspiracy because conspiracy is easier than thinking.

Maybe those wingnut preachers will hire them.

(205,791 posts)I'm sure that they're cashing in, handing out these "religious exemptions." It's just a blessing that they don't seem to be working.
