Not a parody. This is American Consevatism circa 2021.

"My primary reason for refusing the vaccine is much simpler: I dislike the people who want me to take it, and it makes them mad when they hear about my refusal. That, in turn, makes me happy."

I Won’t Take the Vaccine Because It Makes Liberals Mad
I will never allow myself to be injected with Big Pharma’s mass-produced mystery juice, in part because it was rushed out of the lab and into the manufacturing line like a replacement for a Honda…

1. Awesome

1-2% less Republicans makes the world a better place.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

13. Totally agree with you.

Wish it was 100%

[llashram]

2. ignorance of trumpers

truly a happy event for me...may they go painfully into the eternal night their fuhrer created over the last 4 years. Culminating in a coup attempt on 1/6/2021.

[Botany]

3. And someplace in Russia Putin is laughing @ the shit he is stirring up with his disinformation.

I might be wrong but I think much of this misinformation on the right is being spread and
amplified by the Russians. These dumb fuck's brains have been cooked and made ready
by years of "hate talk" from radio/TV and for the past 20 by social media.

4. They'll take him off the ventilator and

his last words will be "own the libs," just before he flatlines.

[ArchTeryx]

33. Don't joke about that too much.

Very similar things have actually happened iRL. People have literally died gasping COVID was a liberal hoax. The stories from nurses would make your blood boil and make you cry at the same time.

[quickesst]

5. I can't count how many times....

.... I have said these people would throw their own family under the bus for a chance to "stick it to the libs". Right-wing values.

[louis-t]

6. And that, my friends, is how we make America great!

[roamer65]

7. America will be greater with more of them 6 foot under.

Just put them in quarantine camps so they don’t infect the rest of us vaccinated folks with new variants.

[dutch777]

8. Until we limit the purchase of alcohol/cigarettes & entry to bars/restaurants to the vaccinated

and any other public group venue, you'll have this stupidity. If some yahoo in remote wherever wants to stay at home and not bother or add risk to the rest of us, I'll live.

[Johonny]

9. Why does this make me happy to read then?

[Renew Deal]

25. lol, exactly.

[LakeArenal]

10. I don't wish anyone dead.....

But when someone seems to want to....Have at it.
Tell St Peter: “I owned those libs.”

[peppertree]

11. Good. More for the responsible among us - and the third world

It's out of control in many of these countries, and their already-strained hospitals are at (sometimes above) capacity.

Let the Repugs do something to give the U.S. a positive image for a change.

[Shermann]

12. I've been saying this for a while

It's just a way to be passive aggressive against the "libs".

It's bizarre really because most of the guidance regarding masks and vaccines originates with nonpartisan scientists and medical professionals. Then it gets repackaged by politicians, more or less intact. But if you believe in "deep state scientific panels", the distinction gets blurred.

This is why you'll be hearing a lot about blood clots. Right-wingers will periodically be questioned about their vaccine hesitancy at the water cooler. They can't just say they are against the libs, because that sounds dumb (because it is dumb). Coming up with an alternate apologia can be challenging here. Adept passive aggressors never admit to the passive aggression. So, blood clots it is. That's their story and they're sticking to it.

It's probably best to not even ask this question unless you already know the answer (standard lawyer approach).

[nuxvomica]

14. You known what makes liberals super mad?

Someone jumping out of a plane in flight without a parachute. That really makes us crazy mad.

[gratuitous]

16. Also, we're super happy that Peter D'Abrosca continues to breathe

And we'd be oh-so-pissed if he stopped breathing. You know what to do, Peter.

20. Believe it or not

Charlie Sykes is not the bad guy here. The actual writer is some more obscure dumbass.

Sykes is actually pointing out how idiotic the Republican Party has become. Even though he is a long time RWer, he dumped Trump and supported Biden.

[gratuitous]

21. Thanks; I'll fix my post

[Initech]

17. Or installing an ejector seat in a helicopter.

[MuseRider]

18. LOL.

[MuseRider]

15. That is a hell of a line

to draw in the sand.

Go for it..GO FOR IT.

We need less stupid in the country not more.

[maxsolomon]

19. Spite is when you hurt yourself to hurt another.

Go ahead and die a horrible, painful, lonely death.

As a poster on another board says: "Republicans are horrible people."

[11 Bravo]

22. Dear Charlie, if you wind up on a ventilator I'll be FURIOUS!

[Nevilledog]

23. Not Charlie.....he's the one pointing out the insanity

[11 Bravo]

26. Oops. Thanks for the correction.

I knew Sykes was at one time a wingnut, and I thought he might have relapsed.

[Renew Deal]

24. What they fail to realize is that it makes liberals happy when they don't take it.

[Klaralven]

27. Mom is trying to make me eat egg, so I'm not going to do it!

That's my grandson's logic. 18 months.

[FakeNoose]

28. I hear the tranq dart method is quite affective

It can be adapted for Covid vaccinations in a jiffy.

[CrackityJones75]

29. I see no way to avoid vaccine passports.

We will be in an endless cycle of shutdowns with or without them but for those of us playing by the rules we shouldn’t be punished for others idiocy.

[muriel_volestrangler]

30. This is on a far-right website founded by that idiot who wrote "The Flight 93 Election" in 2016

and then got a job in the Trump administration. Yes, that's right, the way to save the world turned out to be "pwn the libs by endangering herd immunity against a disease that's killed half a million Americans, and 3 million worldwide".

Looking at their front page, they have an obsession with "Anglo-Saxon" heritage. These truly are the worst America has to offer.

[In It to Win It]

31. Call it 'Trump vaccine'

[Javaman]

32. And we will be soooooo angry if you drop dead because of it

Idiot

[Mr. Ected]

34. When a party has no new ideas of its own to govern effectively

It's much easier to simply be against whatever the opposition is for.

[Vinca]

35. I don't want Republicans to take it. The world gets better every time one of them exits it.
