Bang on as always, el gato, except for this sentence: “200 million americans took these drugs. you’d think they might be a tad curious on the data behind them.”
Tragically and incomprehensibly, those who drank the potion have lost all semblance of inquisitiveness. Perhaps that is one of the unlisted side effects …
Some might be too scared to know. Others might think wanting to know would make them "anti-vax."
Judging from my conversation with an old friend—who has twice drunk the potion, is scheduled for a booster this week, and has already gotten her 5-year-old injected—I think you’re right on both counts. After I gently encouraged her to ask questions and posed several dozen of my own exposing the chasms in the fraudulent narrative, she asked if we could change the subject as it was making her uncomfortable 😢
"I'd rather be ignorant than be uncomfortable." Yeesh.
I know. She explained that what’s done is done so there’s nothing she can do about it now, and I asked, “Don’t you want to know the truth?” Previously, she had said she was living in a different reality (which I don’t dispute!), and here, she said something to the effect of it not being the truth. I asked, “How do you know if you don’t examine the evidence?” She couldn’t answer that or any of the many other “why’s” I asked her.
Leftists and Democrats hate "why?" questions. I always say to them, "Don't tell me what you believe, tell me WHY you believe it."
They'll tell you *what* but a conversation killer is when they're asked "why?" It has happened sooooo many times in the past that it's no longer just anecdotal.
Their opinions are based on emotion, not intellect, and so they can't answer whys without sounding clueless or ignorant. So they don't bother. They change the subject, or leave the conversation.
