Far-Right Extremists Move From ‘Stop the Steal’ to Stop the Vaccine

Post by TC Talks » Fri Mar 26, 2021 10:09 am

This is a great development. I am totally comfortable with these idiots skipping the vaccination over attacking voting. Perhaps they can start drinking bleach.
Adherents of far-right groups who cluster online have turned repeatedly to one particular website in recent weeks — the federal database showing deaths and adverse reactions nationwide among people who have received Covid-19 vaccinations.

Although negative reactions have been relatively rare, the numbers are used by many extremist groups to try to bolster a rash of false and alarmist disinformation in articles and videos with titles like “Covid-19 Vaccines Are Weapons of Mass Destruction — and Could Wipe out the Human Race” or “Doctors and Nurses Giving the Covid-19 Vaccine Will be Tried as War Criminals.”

If the so-called Stop the Steal movement appeared to be chasing a lost cause once President Biden was inaugurated, its supporters among extremist organizations are now adopting a new agenda from the anti-vaccination campaign to try to undermine the government.

Bashing of the safety and efficacy of vaccines is occurring in chat rooms frequented by all manner of right-wing groups including the Proud Boys; the Boogaloo movement, a loose affiliation known for wanting to spark a second Civil War; and various paramilitary organizations.

These groups tend to portray vaccines as a symbol of excessive government control. “If less people get vaccinated then the system will have to use more aggressive force on the rest of us to make us get the shot,” read a recent post on the Telegram social media platform, in a channel linked to members of the Proud Boys charged in storming the Capitol.


“The more you can increase fear of drugs, crime, welfare mothers, immigrants and aliens, the more you control all of the people.”

The good thing is that eventually those of us who are vaccinated are going to tell them to stay home if businesses are requiring a vaccine for entry. They aren't going to like it.

Speaking of “Stop the Steal” - get a load of so-called attorney for a President Trump - Sidney Powell - as she files her latest brief in the voting machine lawsuit that’s come her way and will destroy her. She states that a reasonable person would not have viewed her false claims as facts!

Yeah. That’s some one-of-a-kind, avoid-prison defense, sister. Good luck with a judge or jury and THAT twisted excuse, El Sid.

ANOTHER failure of the Trump challenge.


What's more pathetic: harassing an old man who is paying to do a radio show or supporting a grifter like Trump?

Such a policy by businesses would not be "following the science" as there's no scientific support for requiring 100 percent of the population to get vaccinated to end a pandemic.

It's never been about following the science, but you know that.

That supports the argument for moving on with our lives if we can’t vanquish it.

No, it tears into the right wing argument of herd immunity and keep everything open.

So if we can’t achieve heard immunity and it stays with us forever when can we go back to normal?

You can stay locked up forever. I don’t really want to.

After I get my shot Tuesday and wait a week, I will be out and about much more freely. I will meet with small groups of friends and dine out in socially distanced restaurants that take precautions.

However, I will faithfully wear my mask in crowds like grocery stores and other high traffic areas until we get down consistently in the double digits as a state. I still will heed all state mandates like the law abiding citizen I am.
