this is breaking records in terms of social darwinism tbh

A lot of people are missing the point & 100% buying into the eugenics rhetoric so let me explain: There's no end to the pandemic in sight because our governments' policy response has consistently prioritized the private profits of business owners over the lives of human beings.

This is what "not letting omicron disrupt work and school" is about. We've seen so many deaths but the official messaging is to flatter your ego for being vaccinated and shift the responsibility and blame away from the gov, directing your anger & frustration onto the unvaccinated

This is pure ideology: it's about reducing a social question of government policy to a question of individual responsibility and choice. it's manipulating you into accepting this monstrous policy as normal, blaming the victims and seeing their deaths as deserved, and it's working

The omicron variant is infecting tons of people who are fully vaccinated, and the "unvaccinated" includes children and the immunocompromised. We can look to other countries to see what a competent response that prioritizes human life over profit looks like

@JDespland @Werewolf_Pussy Christ, this is just horrible.

@JDespland Notice how they say "work and school" and don't frame it as helping people have more fulfilling lives.

@JDespland @polclarissou I imagine this might hit kind of hard if you were to, say, have an underlying condition that keeps you from getting vaccinated

@JDespland what do you mean my throat hurts because I drank bleach, there’s no way my poor choices could lead to bad outcomes

@JDespland "get back to work and if you're immunocompromised, just die already" - the white house, 2021

@JDespland Re my QT, sorry I doubted you, Joachim. I just had to see it for myself.

@JDespland they’ll do this and not just enforce a vaccine mandate on people who can be vaccinated and give them accessibility accommodations and incentive to do it lmao

@JDespland @TwinsScott Missed a lot in this statement.

@JDespland this is so grim

@JDespland Vaccine trials should not be forced upon anyone. I choose not to partake in this dangerous piercing of my arm. Change my mind in 70 years (when pharmaceutical companies can finally reveal the data of their studies. VIVA PUREBLOOD VIVA!!

@JDespland

@JDespland @newsmite A tail of two tweets, the retweet of this and then advocating that someone be wholly disenfranchised from society for “wrong choices”:

@JDespland Can you advise what the easterners are doing for the unvaxinated? Genuinely interested what their methods of protection are for those not vaxinated and how successful they have been?

@JDespland oh shit, this is real? I thought it was fake at first
