Noting that the government is falling short of its Covid vaccine goals is an applause line at CPAC Dallas

1. The Delta variant must be bouncing around in there like a beach ball at a rock concert.

[EYESORE 9001]

15. Crowd-surfing even

[susanr516]

21. Wouldn't surprise me at all

I understand the Delta variant is taking over in NE TX. Almost all of the counties in the ArkLaTex area have a fully vaccinated rate under 30%. It's a relatively short trip from Tyler to Dallas. I bet there were several bubbas from the Tyler/Longview area who attended. Oh well, play Covid games, win Covid prizes.

[PortTack]

2. Yeah..well 3%..so?

[Shermann]

3. Beware the vaccine gnomes!

Phase 1) Sucker young people into taking the vaccine
Phase 2) ?
Phase 3) Profit

[NJCher]

4. conservatives love to start their

sentences with "clearly" and follow this up with a non sequitur.

[Crunchy Frog]

5. Rooting for their own supporters dying. Typical.

[vercetti2021]

6. I'm rooting for the smart ones

To survive while the idiots play fate with a deadly virus with two much deadlier variants. GOOD LUCK FUCKERS

[underpants]

7. Yeah you tied up to that team of horses didn't you Alex. A John Prine lyric comes to mind

Two men were standing upon a bridge
One jumped and screamed you lose


Midnight fell on Franklin Street
And the lamppost bulbs were broke
For the life of me, I could not see
But I heard a brand new joke
Two men were standing upon a bridge
One jumped and screamed you lose
And just left the odd man holding
Those late John Garfield blues

8. They are weaponizing the virus.

How is this not genocide?

[vercetti2021]

9. Well they're killing their own so...

Self genocide? Mass self suicide?

[Treefrog]

12. Are you aware of how many AAs and Latinx are reluctant to vaccinate?

Things are rarely as simple as we’d like them to be.

[vercetti2021]

18. Idk why they would be

Unless they buy into the bullshit too

[scarytomcat]

19. could the fact that right wingers are buying spanish radio stations and programming

their demented lies

[GulfCoast66]

22. I don't want anyone to die from Covid.

But at this point, no matter the party, color or culture, if you are reluctant and get sick and maybe die it’s on you.

I’m not giving someone a pass because they potentially vote like me.

[roamer65]

13. Problem is they prance into a hospital and infect others who are trying to avoid it.

Like children below 12, immunocompromised, etc, etc.

I was just discussing today with a friend about his granddaughter with leukemia or similar. She’s immunocompromised and yet mommie dearest refuses to get vaxxed. She prances right up there to see her daughter without a mask or any similar protective gear.

That is child endangerment.

[Volaris]

24. Its mass suicide. We found the cults kool-aid.

Drink deep, you dumb fuckers.

[roamer65]

27. Dump is their Jim Jones and Q is their People's Temple.

Jonestown II, the sequel.

[aeromanKC]

10. GQP anti-vaxers have become Domestic Terrorists

They are/will be responsible for more American deaths than the 9/11 hijackers.

[GulfCoast66]

23. They were over a year ago. 3000 vs 200,000. Or more had we taken it seriously

No matter what lots of Americans were going to die. It’s a pandemic. The hyperbole of blaming them all on Trump and republicans is not helpful. But depending on the research they added many hundreds of thousands. And almost all from here on out.

[rurallib]

14. You may die or suffer a great deal, BUT you owned the libs and that's what counts!

Who wants to bet the guy with the mike has been vaccinated?

[Shermann]

25. They do a similar tap dance on FXN

They'll coyly acknowledge getting the vaccine themselves due to this or that, but then boldly go on to say how there shouldn't be any pressure whatsoever put on others to get it.

[CentralMass]

16. Republicans are scum.

[FakeNoose]

17. The list of vaccinated Americans should be released

I'm certain these RW a-holes have all been vaccinated. But they get up on that stage and tell everyone else NOT to get vaccinated. It's ludicrous.

I want a national list posted somewhere, so we can all see that these people are lying to their audiences/voters. Let their own voters see.

[Initech]

20. So... they would be happier if we all died?

There's no low to which these assholes won't stoop.

[Roisin Ni Fiachra]

26. It's mostly non-vaccinated Republicans who are getting sick and dying from Delta

variant now. Let them applaud their own stupidity.

Just sayin'.

Please, everyone, protect yourself from Covid, and stay away from Republicans, who hang out with each other, transmit the virus, and make each other sick.

[roamer65]

28. Well. If it comes down to an anti-vax Dumpist and the virus.

I’m rooting for the virus in that specific case.

I am a Darwinist, in biological terms.
