People took a very strong stance on it because it was being forced upon people,
I’ll agree with you that this was absolutely wrong, forcing it on ppl, this is issue “A”. I personally didn’t take it because I was WFH and later when I did take it I took the virion particle delivery system formulation (traditional to all vaccines) not the new mRNA delivery system. I admit I had no objective evidence driving that decision, just went with what was the old tried and true, not something new.
But then cretins like Joe Rogan and his fan base suddenly becoming experts on immunology (issue “B”) as some sort of a childish tantrum like response to issue A) is very childish.
A and B are not the same. Understanding A was wrong does not mean one has any understanding of B. But because Rogan and his Republican stoner army were mad about A, they suddenly all became scientific experts in B and millions took their medical advice from this uneducated moron and believed the entire scientific community was lying. Ironically, if they actually did understand the science they could tell if Rogan or fauci was the one lying - but they don’t have that knowledge so they sided with Rogan based on vibes.
I was randomly looking through ivermectin Facebook groups the other day. It was incredibly sad. It made my heart hurt for what America has become. We are 4 years removed from the alleged sins of the jab. Literally nobody cares anymore, yet there are still legions of mostly elderly people, mostly southern, all white, all uneducated, with American flags and TDS propaganda all over their pages- having discussions about using ivermectin for literally everything.
Depression, fertility, arthritis, profalactive health, “cleansing”, cancer, dialysis adjuncts, diabetes, obesity, pre natal care, giving it to children, adhd in their children, measles now…..I could go on forever.
It is incredibly heartbreaking to see that people are so angry about a vaccine developed to help save lives 4 years ago, that had some negative side effects in some ppl
as every medicine on earth does, that they are poisoning themselves to literally spite educated people. Thats how deep this sense of inadequacy and low self esteem we’ve instilled in people that didn’t do well in school goes,
We’ve done something similar to our young women with regard to looks. We’ve made them feel less than and left them with trauma because they may not look like a cover girl. The anti intellectuals are suffering from something similar and yes it might be “liberals” faults for egging them on and making fun of them.
It’s just incredibly sad to see willfully ignorance to the point of poisoning yourselves, your family, and your fetuses with ivermectin just to prove a point to a made up liberal adversary on the internet.
Check out these Facebook ivermectin groups. It will blow your mind. The people doing it, I feel bad for them. They are extremely poor, they are already in poor health and probably can’t access real healthcare, and they are fueled by hatred of people that have marginalized them and made fun of them for being illiterate. There is a very strong sentiment of hatred of doctors in those communities as well.
They feel that they have been so egregiously violated by the existence of a vaccine they didn’t even take - that they must take ivermectin for everything and nothing just to prove a point.
This doesn’t make me sad in and of itself. It makes me sad that this is what America has come to. Poisoning yourself because you “feel” so violated by others.
