    I’m wagering this is just pandering, not that he’s actually a vaccine skeptic.

    Think something like Cucker Tarlson who (while talking up how dangerous the covid vaccine was (just asking questions and such)) almost definitely got one.

      It doesn’t matter if it’s pandering or they know it’s a lie if they then turn the lie into policy. The rest of us take the risk of death from it just the same

        Only The Leader can be perfect.

        All scientists, doctors, and college professors need to shut up and listen to the wise and practial Leader.

      They count on you using your energy to do that math for them - why do you need to? Just don’t.

      Why not just believe him. He’s a fucking idiot, who (at best) doesn’t have a firm, established position on a key, fundamental part of human life into his 60s. That’s not a serious person, it’s an ignorant person at best, someone who will shift on major positions in exchange for power at worst - either way he shouldn’t be within the proximity of power.
