General Politics Discussion VIII [ARCHIVED] • Page 1066

idk Texans are pretty comfortable with Abbot I think, unfortunately

 

Started to read that McConaughey article and stopped as soon as it started with the old “why is the left so mean to racists” bullshit. Once again why is this rich actor’s political opinion being reported in the news section of USA Today. Of course he wants everyone to calm down, his life is great.

 

Botox is a hell of a drug

Agent Cody No Thanks

 

CA: “Stay at home orders are back in place.”

Work: “Business as usual!”

 

Did Wes Anderson make it

 

Ehhhh.... lots of the trumpy Republicans aren’t happy with him

 

It's really concerning how many people are saying they're not gonna get the vaccine.

 

I’m willing to bet atleast 75% of my Facebook feed is not going to. And I think I’m betting low.

 

Yea anecdotally this has been my experience as well.. lots of skepticism even from some progressive friends

 

Right, like, it's not like my circle is full of the 5G caused Covid crowd, but a lot are still saying "I'm not testing out shit."

Like, cool, you rule, please go relocate yourself onto what I'm calling diseased island and leave the rest of us who actually want this plague to end alone.

 

I really don’t get the plan for people who acknowledge this is all real, but refuse to take vaccine. Are you just comfortable never leaving your home? Or is it “let’s let everyone else get the vaccine so I don’t have to” because that’s selfish as fuck and also def not gonna work.

 

Same, my mom and sister are left leaning but concerned about being guinea pigs on a rushed vaccine and want other people to get it first.

I explained how they still undergo the same kind of testing as any other vaccine, and that they were just able to do certain tasks in parallel that were normally more sequential since they had a higher demand and budget than ever

 

I do think a lot of people are just really worried about the safety of it because it's been completed at an unprecedented speed and the admin in charge has done absolutely nothing to curb anyone's fears

 

Is there a significant group of people like that that won’t end up taking it though? I’ve heard some reasonable people hesitant to take the vaccine because of it’s rushed process and are unsure how safe it is. But once it is shown to be safe I would expect all those people to take it. Unfortunately though there is a huge group of morons who won’t take it because of baseless conspiracy theories. Those are who I worry about.
