What confuses me as a center right individual is that these extreme right people who rant about the vaccine loveeeeee to talk about the profit the pharma companies are making off it as though that’s an indication of an unsafe product. It’s ironic because generally as republicans we are supposed to be very much in favor of the free market and allowing companies to make profits off of their work. Yet these extreme right folks will use it against them…makes them sound like whiney liberals tbh

I refuse to worship the first beast, the mark, also known as vaccines.

Has absolutely nothing to do with being soft. In fact, the Bible says ill be killed for refusing it.
How soft and pussy am I to take death over the mark? Doesn't sound soft to me. In fact my real dad is gonna be proud when I see him.

Hope you can say the same, my friend.

The goverment buying all of your product so that it is a successful investment then mandating its use is not a free market my good man.

It sounds like that, becasuet he parties flipped, and the establishment stooges that want corperations to rule the world are on the democrats side primarily now.

The only thing you can say the republicans still have in that arena is a cold skeleton grip on the establishment they controlled for the last 40 years leading up to trumps election (where he thustly started draining the swamp, and the swamp all moved to democrats)

If you care about people, if you care about what the democrats used to pretend they cared about since you were a little kid, you just cant in good faith support any democrat any more.

Sure the green party is cool sounding... but the truth is they're all in it together.

All roads lead to the DNC... even the candidates they they champion (a Chaney, a Romney) because the democrats are all old establishment 40+ year olds that want to concentrate their wealth just like the GOP for the last 40-60 years.

The old saying, "you are a democrat when you're young and a republican when you're old is right, and wrong"

You're generous when you're young, and greedy when you're old.... All the young democrats that did all that fighting, are greedy old people now.

Er yes it is. Because the company was freely allowed to sell it to anyone across the globe and would have made a lot of money regardless. The company is not required to make the product, they’re not required to sell it to the US government they are free to not make it or sell it to anyone else who they want. Obviously a good business decision would be to sell it to the government that is guaranteeing purchases from you and enforcing mandates but you’re not required to do that.

i've been hearing this phrase for 40 years now and i just keep getting more leftish as i get older

i still don't think there's really that much of a distinction between the two parties, so to me whether or not they flipped isn't relevant, but i kind of thing that phrase only exists to reinforce the outer edges of the overton window

maybe not deliberately, no idea who coined it etc

let me rephrase:

When you are young you are generous, when you are older most people become threatened and scared and want to want to protect and concentrate their meager wealth.

Better?
