- pope_meat 5y agoIt started everywhere, for every liberal hippy mom there was a christian conservative mom home schooling their kid to avoid vaccine requirements of public schools. This transcends politics, humans are dumb fearful critters.
- rnjesus 5y agoyeah, agreed. that was the point i was trying to make to the parent comment — that this behavior isn’t exclusive to the “right” or “left.” it’s a people problem. or, more exactly, it’s a religion problem (not in the sense of spiritual faiths, but in the tendency for people to seek out and congregate around a shared system of beliefs.. and then stick to those beliefs beyond all reason).
- galaxyLogic 5y agoIt's not exclusive to right or left but we need to look at which side has the anti-science momentum going on. Which side has leaders who advocate injecting bleach to kill Covid?
