Nowhere near as hard as you think it is

Newsom is a transphobe, hates the homeless, supports Israel, and thinks we need to continue Kirk’s great work.

That guy, out of 8 billion, is your champion of freedom and democracy? Because his 19 year old intern mocks Trump on social media?

Edit: Go ahead and keep down voting me. I know what I stand for and support. You putting this half-nazi on a pedestal for the most vapid hollow shit is not the moral superiority you think it is. People look at the US and call us fascist inbreds who should be quarantined precisely because vaguely center right posers like Newsom are supposed to be some paragon of American progressivism. Shit is embarassing.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herd_immunity

Sacrificing the “freedom” (as some like to call it, I say selfishness) to not get a little boo boo from a needle and having the sniffles for 6 hours keeps everyone in society safe from horrible fucked up diseases, including those who legit can’t get vaccines because of weakened or deficient immune systems.

The reason many of these diseases seem like a myth or “just the flu bro” to antivax morons is because of herd immunity and society spending decades eradicating these diseases so no one has to experience them.

The vaccines are not going to harm the vast majority of people, and will instead help millions have increased quality of life. There is no reason for them to not be mandatory.
