[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 49 points 2 years ago (2 children) I'm fairly certain, they just all got together to make a list of all the stupid things they could do to own the libs. The neat thing about this one, is that It only hurts the people that are going to follow him. The people who didn't vote for that side know better. permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] thatKamGuy@sh.itjust.works 16 points 2 years ago (4 children) You would hope so, but there’s just as many ‘crunchy’ people on the left as there are in the right. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [+] todd_bonzalez@lemm.ee 17 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Jumpingspiderman@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago She is VERY fortunate that she didn't get much sicker! permalink fedilink source parent [–] RedditRefugee69@lemmynsfw.com 1 point 2 years ago Anarchists are not known for acknowledging the benefits of government regulation. permalink fedilink source parent [–] rumba@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) Get ready, there's going to be a whole lot of peeling off the warning labels.

And there are people who get the disease even though they were vaccinated. That means that the idiots who don't get vaccinated can spread the virus to people who wouldn't have gotten sick otherwise. Which of course doesn't mean that vaccination is bad, only that it is not perfectly protective. For example, I have had all the Covid vaccinations up to the day I got Covid. I only knew I had Covid because my wife, who was one booster behind me, got sick with Covid so even though I felt fine, I tested and saw that I also had Covid. But the vaccine kept me from getting sick. permalink fedilink source parent
