I hate to say this, but depending on how you look at it this might actually be better for America as a whole since it'll reduce the number of republican voters.

I agree. Let it happen.

And yet it's never that straightforward. The more people who are infected provides more opportunities for virus mutations, endlessly prolonging this pandemic for all of us.

And the Floridians who trust these people will not get vaccinated. What a dereliction of duty. Once again, Republicans demonstrate they have no shame.

Let them die if they wish.

Yeah…. But that’s not how public health works. These idiots aren’t just killing themselves, they’re killing our immunocompromised, elderly, etc.

[-] affiliate@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago

they’re also giving the virus more chances to circulate and mutate

Yikes, I forgot about this part. True.

A fascist and a quack walk into a bar... everyone stands up, forms a line and punches them.

Another person walks into the same bar and asks "what's the line for?". Then someone replies "thats the punch-line".

This is bad and unsettling but let's face it the rest of the world isn't significantly better. Vaccines won't solve the pandemic when hardly anyone wears masks, workplace accommodations slowly disappear and mass events gather thousands like it's 2019 again. If we brand public acting against anti-covid measures as tinfoil hat grifting (and rightly so) we should hold anti-WFH preachers to the same standard as well as any large-audience event which does not mandate masks. But we won't because burning man bullshit, disneyland,, crowded restaurants and random conventions are more important than a passing thought about (as one poster mentioned here) elderly and immunocompromised.

About

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis aspires to be the same kind of Autocrat despised by the founders of the United States. He must be exposed for what he is: a great threat to our Democratic Republic and American values. Republicans don't punish big businesses like the Walt Disney Company for disagreeing with them. Fascists do. DeSantis and those like him are a massive threat to our Democracy.
