It brings me no pleasure in addressing this reality. Many conservatives are fine people, but the damage done by Republican media outlets is undeniable and it stifles advancement to the detriment of all.
This is why my comment was really about praising the potential of a good therapeutic. Political ideologies fade when all you can think about is survival, in contrast to preventative care which requires forethought.
- atonse 5y agoUnfortunately this is exactly the opposite of what happened. Political ideologies did not fade but got stronger in spite of this one thing that is probably the most apolitical thing to happen to us. A “natural disaster” that wasn’t caused by a natural phenomenon that’s itself become politically charged: climate change. While I see most of the nuttiness on the right (with regards to the pandemic and attacking public health measures), I have friends who said they’d refuse to take the vaccine because operation warp speed suggested it was rushed (and was a Trump thing). But they were first in line to get it when Biden had been president for a few months. Nothing else had changed with the vaccines.
