Oh dear sweet Jesus. Ya gotta see this.

Why won't media SAY the truth: Republicans are weaponizing COVID to regain power.
I believe that what is REALLY behind all this anti-vaxx and anti-masking bullshit is just that: PREVENT Dems and Biden from making headway on COVID and getting America back to some semblance of normal.
THEN Republicans can, in 2022 and 2024 - after they SABOTAGED Biden Admin efforts to finally end this virus in the US - run for congress and as POTUS on Biden's "failure" to get the virus under control.
They're not ignorant. THEY'RE EVIL.
DO YOU THINK THEY CARE that this is KILLING people? Including children? Because they don't. I guarantee you, they do not. And they still call themselves "pro-life" (conditions apply: pro-life only applies when the fetal tissue is attached to a woman or girl they want to enslave and control). Outside that, all bets are off.
Is there a REASON the *******ed media can't point out that this is likely what is behind all this?
And these are the idiots who want to bring back the Fairness Doctrine? I mean, just because retard above believes this is likely ... I can see CNN, MSLSD, and a host of others just rushing to the pay phones now to call in the Latest Breaking News!!
****Stop the presses!!! CousinIT BELIEVES the republicans are trying to kill everyone so they can take over the government!!!****

1. Republicons,
their backers, their enablers, and their donors own and/or control nearly all the media.
That's why.
Oh God.

3. They'd need SOME kind of proof ... some documentation or someone high-up RePuQ admitting it
Otherwise they're not going to bring it up.
It's too big of a liability for them.

6. It's blatantly obvious. The proof is in front of our eyes every day.
But you are correct; the media would need a signed, notarized confession to actually report it.

7. I don't think it quite rises to that level of certainty, personally ...
I think it's a possibility.
If someone RePuQ tweets out something like 'this COVID mess will help us regain power in 2022', then it becomes something the media can talk about, and I'd imagine they would ... for a few minutes anyway.
You know, however long their algorithms detect clicks and eyeballs.
Truth is, people expect this behavior from Republicans, even a signed notarized confession would, sadly, just lead to a bunch of shrugs and 'yup, that's politics for you'.

8. So why are they doing it? Obviously they know they're killing people.
They're evil, but it's not possible they are that stupid (most of the ringleaders are vaxxed).
Could it be that Putin pays per body bag?

9. Because their entire base is a bunch of morons, and the GQP leaders feel they have no choice
But to entertain these idiots and their fantasy-world bullshit?
Plus some of their 'leaders' are utter morons themselves.
The idea that Russian's are in part behind all these people (all over the world) having these ridiculous views is not that far-fetched to me.
But the 'damage is done' because they're been working on the wingnuts for a year and a half at this point, pumping their propaganda.
The only way I think this changes is when ENOUGH wingnuts see some loved one die, and see with their own eyes that the people who ARE vaxxed are NOT dying. They won't believe what 'science' and 'Democrats' are telling them until it becomes so blatantly 'real' that they can't deny it anymore.
And they question when they lose elections.

If you ****tards would stop trying to use the disease as a bludgeon over masks, lockdowns, death tolls, and mandatory everything there would be a lot less hesitancy.
But y'all are ****tards.

That's just one example.

Went thru an entire bottle of eye drops after reading that dreck.

Weaponizing Covid ... weaponizing Covid ... you mean something like:
* Pelosi minimizing Covid by urging people to come to SF to shop and LIEden denouncing Trump's China travel shut down as xenophobic and then 2 or 3 months later howling that Trump wasn't doing enough about Covid?
* Lying that Trump did nothing about Covid for the first two months?
* Lying that Trump had urged drinking or injecting bleach to fight Covid?
* Cuomo howling for ventilators when NY hadn't bought what their own commission in 2015 had urged be bought, didn't find ventilators already in the state, and then used a fraction of what the Feds provided?
* Cuomo howling for a USN hospital ship to be sent to NY and then sending still-infectious Covid patients back to SNFs and ALFs while USS Comfort's facilities were almost unused?
* LIEden, Kammie, Cuomo, Noisome, and several other Dem goobernors urging mistrust of Trump Vaccines' safety and effectiveness before the November election and then urging people to get vaccinated after the election?
Those were just off the top of my head, but reality is that Dems, not Rs, "weaponized" Covid! "Weaponizing" Covid was the core of the Dems' 2020 Presidential election strategy! Drops mic ...

Do not think that dems aren't drooling over what Australian and New Zealand military and police are doing.
EDIT: I just saw some headline claiming republicans are weaponizing what's happening in Afghanistan to get ahead in 2022.
Let that sink in. Democrats are complaining that people are pointing out the democrats' failures. No ****ing shit we are pointing out your failures, that's literally how our political system is supposed to work.

Republicans pounce ... and Republicans are weaponizing ... are current MSM-speak meaning Republicans have a valid strong issue with ______.

I never cease to be amazed that they accuse us with every form of misbehavior that they are actually engaged in.
