Maggie's Farm

I thought at first Bookworm Room was circulating all the incredibly stupid memes she had run across in order to make fun of them. As I went along, I realised these must be memes she agrees with. I used to visit there years ago, because Neoneocon (now The New Neo) used to link a lot. But never again. There's no point.

Just for openers, the vaccines are no longer experimental. They have been given millions of times, compared to the few thousands that usually go into testing. As to the duration, those who were originally tested have had the vaccine over 12 months now, still being monitored, with very low side effect profile. Health care workers are at 8 months. I am nearly at 6 months from first dose. Remember that many of the people telling you how experimental this is are also people who oppose all vaccines, trying to pretend otherwise.

I'm not "telling" you the vaccines are safe. Don't focus on how irritated you are with people "telling" you things. I'm giving you evidence you can look at with your own eyes.

Except, Zach, that is not very much true anymore. The fact that racism is no longer systemic or individual but African Americans have still not succeeded, unlike Asians, Jews, and (gulp) Hispanics and immigrant blacks is why everyone is furious and doubling down despite evidence. It is not because their solutions have nearly succeeded and need a final push over the top, but because their solutions partly succeeded and then leveled out.
