    The absurdity. The hypocrisy.

    We have a few here that either just are so authoritarian they are straight dangerous. Or they have allowed these authoritarians like Trudeau to sell them with the propaganda to a point I am not sure they can be saved.

    The difference is that the protests in China would be considered legitimate peaceful protests in almost every free country. The protests referenced by Trudeau last February were truckers illegally blocking roads impeding traffic. You do realize that there is a difference. There is also another difference. While the trucker objected to the vaccine requirements which limited their ability to transport loads across the border the requirements were nowhere equivalent to China's zero Covid policy under which citizens of the country could be forced into quarantine.

    Yes, the truckers objected to crimes against humanity but were brutally put down because they were inconveniencing other motorists who were thing “Crimes against humanity. Ah well, gotta get to work.”

    Crimes against humanity? Once again quoting that well known philosopher John McEnroe, "You cannot be serious."

    Yes, crimes against humanity. Unless you consider lockdowns and mandatory lethal injections an inconvenience.

    Yes, these spurious studies have already been roundly debunked.

    You are certainly defining how and why this has sadly been political from the beginning.

    Being a Republican is literally hazardous to your health.

    Seems like a better conspiracy theory for republicans is that Covid is a Democratic disease (developed in conjunction with Chinese at Wuhan lab) to kill republicans and tilt elections.

    CDC knew COVID vax causes heart problems but kept mum (wnd.com)

    CDC data turned over by court order shows health-care workers and others who were first to get the mRNA COVID vaccines suffered an extraordinarily high rate of complications.

    Among earliest populations to get vaccinated, the data withheld by the CDC showed 1 in 3 reported needing medical care, missing school or work, or the inability to "perform normal daily activities," Just the News reported.

    In June 2021, more than six months after the vaccine was rolled out, the FDA added a warning to the Pfizer and Moderna vaccine fact sheets of an increased risk of myocarditis, inflammation of the heart muscle, and pericarditis, inflammation of the tissue surrounding the heart.

    The survey allowed such symptoms to be written in the form's "other" field, but the omission from the checkboxes made the data harder to standardize.

    One good thing about Covid hysteria is that we didn’t hear so much about food fears.

    This just in.... breathless fact-free maga sites report that massive numbers of vaccinated Americans suffered some degree of arm inflammation. Multiple reports of some people having a red mark and soreness. Might be better to have Covid. LOL

    Excess deaths remain stubbornly high due to Climate Change.

    Canada didn't impose lockdowns and the vaccines are considered safe and effective. Where there have been fatal blood clots resulting from the J&J and Oxford AstraZeneca vaccines, the side effect is extremely rare, is largely limited to women of child bearing age and is more likely to occur from hormonal birth control than the vax. There has been a correlation between the mRNA vaccines and myocarditis in young men with the side effect usually resolving within a couple of months. Myocarditis is also more likely to result from a Covid infection than the vaccine.
    COVID-19 infection poses higher risk for myocarditis than vaccines

    It actually hasn't been demonstrated that there was a link between the vax and Bob Odenkirk's heart attack and I recall a great deal of criticism of those who celebrated the deaths of vocal anti-vaxxers from Covid and in the case of those tragic deaths there was absolutely no doubt regarding the cause.
