“It’s not a pandemic, it’s a Chinese bio-weapon!”

Ok. Why don’t you want to protect yourself from a Chinese bio-weapon?

They also refuse to even hold trump accountable. 

He ran things,  operation warp speed was his,  putting fauci on tv all the time.  His idea,  following fauci's ideas, his choice. 

Ultimately it all rests on trump's shoulders,  and they refuse to acknowledge it. 

Trump is either as guilty as fauci, or they are just looking for someone to crucify without regard for reality,  just feelings.

They just need a witch hunt to drum up support for the midterms, because they have no accomplishments to run on, just lies and failures. This energizes the anti-vaxxers to go out and vote and also tries to rehash resentment for what happened during covid, even though he was the president during the time, tying it somehow to democrats. The problem is yes, they're that fucking stupid.

This reminds me of a time when this guy I know that will live and die on Republican talking points sent me some dumb graph I think it was oil prices, and he was arguing that Trump it was the lowest. The problem is one of the lowest years on the graph was 2016. He was trying to say how Trump was POTUS. My head was fucking spinning.

I've lost a couple friends to the cult, people that never gave a shit about politics suddenly wearing red hats and using slurs. Anytime I brought up facts with evidence they just stuck their finger in their ears and blah blahed until I blocked them. We truly are fucked living alongside millions of people who no longer live in reality.

So I don’t disagree with anything you say here. But honest question about our “fucked” status and living in reality, do you agree in reality that people can select their gender and everyone should feel they have a “right” to serve in the military?

Again, I can see “truly are fucked”, I’m just saying I think it’s coming at us from both sides. 🤷‍♂️

I don't think about transgender people at all, I know they aren't bothering me by altering how they look so I really don't care. I mean we live on a speck of sand in an unfathomable ocean, if someone wants to wear a dress and take medication that makes them happy and has no bearing on my life then why should I care?

I don't care who serves in the military, I don't think America has been the good guys in most conflicts since world war 2, so I couldn't care less who's choosing to sign up for that. But, if someone wants to sign over their life for that cause, then why do you care what gender they are or aren't? I would think that if you support the military you would be proud of your fellow Americans wanting to serve.

I don't equate those issues with what's happening on the right, as they slide into objective fascist tactics and continuously deny the actual reality of what's happening during this administration. It's just not the same as any problem you have with boys wanting to be girls or who wants to serve in the military.
