(#4594) Culling the republican base

      There is nothing we democrats can do about how republicans want to gamble with their lives. We give them the information from a logical and scientific fact base but they chose not to acknowledge the information. Instead they are either defiant to the point of actually dying or they deem other non medically approved potions as a solution. Either way they are either dying or getting immune compromised for the rest of their lives. They are culling their own herd with their decisions to ignore intelligence and factual proof in the face of dire consequences.
     I can only tell them that they are gambling with their lives similar to a game of deadly Russian roulette. I will not shout at them that they need to listen to the experts. I will not call them fools for not believing in the experts. I will not stop them from going forward with what they see as their right and freedom to decide their own fate in life. Yet it does bother me that the idea that knowledge, logic, and science are so summarily dismissed by them without any good reason for the dismissal. When all that makes us a society, the truth and facts of things, are derided as nonsense then my hope for the future of our collective conscience is downgraded.
     Yet by their own actions they are taking themselves out of the equation with purpose. To me it is a form of suicide and suicide is against the law. Yet they do not understand the significance of that. Yet when they do catch Covid and are hospitalized then they seem to get it. Many are telling others that Covid is real and that they need to vaccinate. It is often the way it is, figuring it out when it is all but too late. However, what is worse is that none of this is a surprise. The vaccination process has worked for us Americans for well over a century so for many now to be unable to connect with today's need for vaccinations is not only absurd but it is deadly.
