Ugh. He is running ads in PA already. Disgusting.

Saw one last night and wanted to punch my tv in his face. I need a political ad blocker of some sort.

nothing endures but change. so yeah hopefully.

i think at this point in just comes down to embracing the risks and weighing the options fully.

living in fear is worse than dying of a virus

What hopefully? What are you referring to?
Edit: Welcome to the forum.

Is it though? I feel like people that are in situations where they are scared for their lives try awfully hard to keep on living.

Bot?

It’s also a complete bullshit framing. Vaxx denial and general ignorance of science IS living in fear. Acknowledging difficult reality and confronting it head on is courage. So the “debate” about living in fear vs following public health protocols is a misdirection, not a real debate. Its the reality deniers that are cowards.

I, for one, welcome this new poster and his gospel of embracing risk and not living in fear.

LOL

Sort of a sociopathic view on COVID if you play it out.

mosdef · December 11, 2021, 2:53pm

You say sociopathic, I say BRAVE! Both sides, I win.

anon12304106 · December 11, 2021, 2:53pm

Wonder if we have a three or four booster year ahead.

j8i3h289dn3x7 · December 11, 2021, 3:07pm

Yeah that’s why I responded. Was thinking spambot.

j8i3h289dn3x7 · December 11, 2021, 3:08pm

+1 to living in fear. Fear is quite literally designed to keep us alive. People who would rather die then live in fear are an evolutionary dead end.

I am not afraid of flying. I am afraid of crashing.

j8i3h289dn3x7 · December 11, 2021, 3:23pm

The newest derposphere theory I’m reading is that the COVId vaccines cause AIDS because something something immune system something something everyone who took the shots will be dead within two years.

otatop · December 11, 2021, 3:45pm

It’s going to be incredible seeing 75 year old pro-COVIDers in 50 years still swearing that people who got vaccinated will be dead from the vaccines soon.

Danspartan · December 11, 2021, 3:57pm

Thank you for your first post and an excellent example of a false choice.

Edit- excellent follow up. It’s like you are in WWI in a Fox hole. Sticking your head up to look wo a helmet isn’t freedom, it’s stupid.

mosdef · December 11, 2021, 4:13pm

Don’t tell me how to live my life.
