Barney & Clyde by Gene Weingarten; Dan Weingarten & David Clark for October 17, 2021

Fair.

It’s not my fault. i go to school and they teach me that the world was created about 6000 years ago, with all life already existing in it’s current form. I drink water from the tap that runs through lead pipes, and like my father says “Education is worthless. It won’t let you get more pay down the mine shaft. The key to success is using your muscles.” Besides I hear on my news channel that the pandemic is a hoax and it’s all about the rich muckitty mucks keeping power from the people. They ain’t putting none of these new fangled poisons in my body. /s

There’s the other epidemic of selfishness. This is demonstrated by Kyrie Irving’s, “I am doing what’s best for me” attitude. Sometimes, you have to do what’s best for your community, for country, your world. And that is to get vaccinated. As it just so happens, in this case, vaccination is ALSO what’s best for you individually.

Classic liberal tactic. If you can’t persuade with logic (and when do liberals ever use logic?) go for shame and degradation. I love this strip for the glorious liberal hypocrisy I see almost every day in it. Funny how this same group of people crying COMPLY is the same one that not two years ago was crying RESIST. Isn’t this strip supposed to be against Big Pharm? Yet here we are pushing readers to get untested gene therapy (it’s not a vaccine).

After decades of being deluged with entertainment about conspiracies, it’s only natural that we see ulterior motives in every aspect of our lives. We’ve been inadvertently trained not to trust anything… at least that’s what THEY want you believe.

ESPN reporter fired, won’t get the shot, wants to get pregnant. Pregnant women are very susceptible to Covid. It goes way beyond stupidity.

I got the vaccine figuring it gives me a few less things to worry about. Like ending up in the hospital and wearing a mask everywhere.

Why make life harder than it already is.

Too much conflicting information, from too many competing sources, most of whom are pushing emotional buttons non-stop.

It is natural to do the frightened fawn freeze when overloaded, it is also natural to hunker down when repeatedly told you are stupid, I’ll-informed, and unable to make your own decisions, because otherwise it feels like any objections or questions will only be met with more ridicule.

That is not to say freezing and hunkering down are the right response, but it seems reasonable to try something new when current actions and attitudes are clearly counter productive.

Decades ago the conservative movement realized they could weaponize stupid people by giving them the feeling of inclusion that proper society denied them. Marmalade Mussolini took that to new heights when he kept telling them they are actually right.

Nailed it.

Still waiting for a vaccine against stupidity, but they won’t take that one either.

People who have had Covid and have the anti-bodies in their system are still also being REQUIRED to take the Covid vaccine which could harm them and actually be catastrophic. That is anti-medicine. Stupidity is forcing those individuals to take the vaccine….

My god what an good example of a smart and timely cartoon! Should be on the editorial page.

Reading about the extremely high mortality rate of unvaccinated pregnant women when they voluntarily contract COVID 19. Is the human gene pool finally getting cleaned up a bit?

Like nearly all other vaccines, the polio vaccine generated immunity lasting for years, even decades. The Covid “vaccines” provide MAYBE 6 months of partially boosted immune response. Despite early claims the manufactures and FDA are no longer claiming it causes the body to generate immunity, only an elevated immune response.

Fun fact: Did you know that several months ago the CDC changed the definitions of “vaccine” and “vaccinated”? They are now tailored to the Covid injections instead of the robust definitions we all grew up understanding.

A year from now I suspect the US will be taking a much different view of these “vaccines”. Especially in light of the blatant suppression of information and distribution of existing symptom treatments that dramatically reduce the impact of Covid on the body.

Stupid? No. Cautious and growing ever more skeptical? Absolutely.

No thanks.

it’s a boon that we’ve got folks like lovelandclay ⇧ working to improve the gene pool so that the rest of us can suffer from less stupidity…

I lived in the days as a kid. A lot of children developed polio after getting the vaccine, or suffered sever side effects, or suffered from side effects years later as adults.
