How Can Covidiots Continue to Be this Ignorant & Self-Destructive?

Read about The coronavirus misinformation on Joe Rogan’s show, explained, by the Washington Post\'s Aaron Blake. After 2 years, it still continues to amaze me that half the population of this country actually believes this laughable, dangerous nonsense!  Included is "scientist" Robert Malone who says 'a third of the population [is] basically being hypnotized' to believe the mainstream media and Anthony S. Fauci by something called 'mass-formation psychosis. And cardiologist Peter McCullough "claimed the pandemic was 'planned' and that early treatments were deliberately suppressed 'in order to promote fear, suffering, isolation, hospitalization and death.' 

A.B.Stoddard has a good column at The Bulwark titled COVID Derangement Is Working Out Just Fine for the GOP. The Republicans are no longer a political party -- they're more like a death cult. About Ron DeSantis, she writes that he "has since realized that any Republican with ambition needs to curry favor with the anti-vaxxers. So he has spent much of the last year being performatively anti-vaccine. He has threatened the salaries of school officials who defy his ban on mask mandates. He intentionally let nearly a million stockpiled home tests expire. He battled Norwegian cruise lines in court to stop them from requiring proof of vaccination from their customers. And, most absurdly, he now refuses to say whether he received a COVID booster shot. The real-world fruits of DeSantis’s governance is that 65,000 Floridians have been killed by COVID".  She adds, "You might think that some voters, somewhere, might notice that it’s the Republicans who have tried to suppress vaccine adoption. That it’s the Republicans who have accommodated the craziest, most pathological claims about vaccines. That it’s the Republicans who have affirmatively been contributing to the deaths of people who listen to them. But you would be wrong. Republicans have paid no price for any of this. They come up with one nutty rant after another. They fundraise off of them. And they ignore their dead pawns, like Robert LaMay".

What an embarrassment this country has become!
