Robin Vos - COVID Denier And Anti-Vaxxer

About this time last year, during the spring elections, Robin Vos was trying to convince people that it was perfectly safe to come out and vote in person despite the pandemic. Of course, he muted his message considerably when he tried to do this while wearing full PPEs, despite the fact that he was not going to be in any contact with members of the public.

Fast forward to now and we see that Vos has become an anti-vaxxer. He put this picture up as his profile image:



Now that frame around Vos and his mistress-turned-third wife, which makes them resemble two turds in a toilet bowl, is a common one used by anti-vaxxers.

As he started to receive severe blow back on that, he tried to backpedal by adding the comment that "No one is saying you should not get vaccinated but the idea that after you are vaccinated that you still have to live in fear is what I am so frustrated by" [grammatical errors are his].

Putting a mask on to run to rite aid or safeway isn't living in fear, any more than putting a bandage on a cut that bleeds is living in fear of bleeding out.

They really do "live in fear." They fear Black people, Spanish speaking immigrants, whether they're from Mexico or not, Asians, because they're just too good at math, gay people because they're afraid it might rub off, Muslims, because of terrorism, Jewish people because they're envious of the whole 8 days of Hanukah they don't understand, and Science, because, well, they simply don't understand it.

They fear being in the minority because they know they've treated others very poorly, and in their mind, revenge and payback and the most important things.

They minimize the virus and spout anti-mask rhetoric because they really are afraid they'll get it. To quell the cognitive dissonance, they lie to themselves, insist others believe their bullshit because they can not manage doubt or difference of opinion.

Masking up even though I'm vaccinated is not a burden. If asshats weren't deliberately spreading the virus by not masking and not getting a free vaccine, then I wouldn't have to continue to mask.

THey're fearful and selfish and spoiled.
Let them be denied access to movies, cruises, hotels. Bring on the vaccine passports. Until the luddites are shunned and prevented from participating in fun things, they won't comply. If they're afraid, by god, they'll make everyone afraid.

I do think there will be some kind of vaccination proof required by airplanes and cruise ships and that will make some of the asshats relent when they positively can't book the trips they want. That's what I'm hoping for anyway.
