I was literally told that I was in danger of being "liquified" within 2 years. Literal melting in my skin Indiana Jones style

Stop. The vein in my forehead can only take so much.

Me: "What about all of the other governments? Europe, Africa, Australia, Russia, they're all in total agreement and doing it together?"

Them: processing that there are other countries and governments outside of the US's control

[-] Jay@sh.itjust.works 18 points 1 year ago

Many of these people would probably answer that governments are actually just puppets of the global pharmaceutical industry.

And Bill Gates.

"any moment now anyone who got the vax is gonna flop over and start foaming at the mouth, I heard it on the My Pillow Guy show."

I can't decide which is more depressing, people stupid enough to believe the shit, or the absurd lack of credibility their sources provide - fucking rubes and idiotic liars deserve each other I guess.

[-] Polar@lemmy.ca 77 points 1 year ago

If the government wanted to kill people, they'd kill those who refused to comply.

So the thing that would make more sense, is that the COVID vaccine was an antidote, and the government was going to release a toxic gas to kill everyone who didn't take it.

But nah, their argument is that the government is killing those who comply. Ya, because that makes sense.

That's one of the things that bugs me about conspiracy theories. So many of them don't even have a point.

How can so many be people be so wrapped up in conspiracism, but never once have the though, "Oh, wait, why would anyone do this? It'd be pointless."

Someone straight up told me its because the elites only want those they can respect to survive.

It's a wierd form of hating them but desperately wanting their approval. I think they all just have daddy issues that aren't the kinky fun kind.

[-] Jay@sh.itjust.works 36 points 1 year ago

And then when you die in 50 years after a long and healthy life: "I told you so!"

Being a republican means you never have to admit you're wrong. You just live in a whole other universe where chemtrails turn the frogs gay, and Trump is an innocent, Christ-like patriot.

[-] camelbeard@lemmy.world 73 points 1 year ago

What I never understood (not from America), is that one party claims to really care about freedom and less involved government.

Whenever I hear that I think cool, so the freedom to have full autonomy over your body? Legal drugs, abortion, etc. Or the freedom to marry who you want, whatever gender. The freedom to legally end your own life, for example if you are terminally ill.

But usually it's just large companies shouldn't pay tax and we want guns, but for everything else fuck freedom.

[-] MrVilliam@lemmy.world 35 points 1 year ago

No, you understand completely. The people voting for that party are just brainwashed morons and middle class dipshits with a few stocks who think they'll become billionaires if only regulations were looser. You understand American politics better than like 80% of Americans.

I wish. They still protest against the lockdowns every saturday down here in Melbs. You know, the lockdowns that are long over. But they want those freedoms that aren't being restricted in any way, shape or form, dammit!

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 28 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I’ve seen the anti-vaxxers out and about. They have all these photos of people on little sticks and you think it’s going to be people who allegedly died of vaccines, but when you get up close it’s all stuff like “Marie had the Moderna vaccine. A day later she sprained her ankle climbing down off a horse.” “John had a sniffly nose a few weeks after Pfizer.”

I've heard someone tell me "it's a hoax but I got sick twice" in the same sentence.

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 38 points 1 year ago

I had a shopkeeper tell me it was a hoax and a few members of his family died of it.

[-] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 23 points 1 year ago

Straight up my uncle was in the ICU for over a week and has been basically crippled by long covid. He still denies it's real.

Dude can barely check his own mail 18 months after getting it.

Everybody who got the vaccine was supposed to be dead by now, too. This is has gotta be the slowest-acting poison in history!

I assume the accepted copout is something along the lines of, "You can thank us for making enough noise that they backed down. Sheepdogs, sheep, blah blah something something..."

Especially since there are people in places of the world that would kill for a vaccine

They’ll just claim that it was because of their efforts that they prevented the Islamic takeover of the US through mask mandates, when really it was all because Trump didn’t want his makeup rubbing off on his mask. One man’s vanity and the whole nation suffers.

They still won't admit they were wrong. They don't possess the willingness to self reflect whatsoever. Imagine living such an empty husk of an existence.

No, they just moved on to repeating verbatim every other talking point they're spoonfed. Hunter's laptop, "it'll be gone after the election", Hillary's emails, election hoax

I’ve got some of this lot on my LinkedIn, of all places, all hoping to one day stop being openforwork by non-stop posting conspiracy theories where potential employers can see it. Their latest thing is that they saw The Hunger Games and decided that 15 minute cities means walled-off districts rather than simply not having to drive everywhere to get what you need.
