The photo is of a hardcore antivaxer who took ivermectin and then died.

          It's one thing to laugh at the situation, it's another to laugh at a person, who, in fact is a victim of extreme misinformation, lack of healthcare, and capitalist exploitation. This guy died, because he was told that ivermectin was a good idea rather than the vaccine.

          You call it his choice, but fuck that. When a system is stacked to push people towards bad decision making what the fuck are most people supposed to do.

                Is it so important to you to celebrate people dying from what is certainly a structural condition rather than a personal responsibility choice. Pointing out their hypocrisy of dying is not going to get them next time.

                I guess we just see their position in this situation differently. I think they are victims literally being murdered by the system that they can't escape. And sure, they are doing bad by spreading the virus and they suck shit for that, but they are also doing what they have been told is best for fighting the disease.

                You seem to think that they are subhuman rats spreading disease specifically to vulnerable populations.

                Curbing the spread of disease is serious, but I think it's a failure of the system when even the unvaccinated die from the disease. They should be locked down, not dead.

                  Tell me the name of the mass shooter who had a good reason. Some nuanced point, some well-considered position, any justification which overrides the actual observable material impact of their actions.

                  They all have a stupid reason. They all want validation for that reason. They want to be valued despite the effect they have. That effect is being a feral person who destroys everything around them.

                  If someone shoots a mass shooter during their spree, fucking lol. The only difference here is that they don't even need to carry a gun to kill more people for the same ideological goal. Their daily existence is terrorism and their enablers only reward them for it. The only thing you'll get for your tolerance is one of them giving you the virus and then saying you don't deserve healthcare.

                  If they don't want all of this to happen, it takes five minutes to get the shot. That's what is at stake. Human lives or a slight inconvenience. Pick your side.

                      Is that a practical option? Given that they're selling vaccine passports to each other, disbelieving in the virus, refusing to get tested when they get it, and infecting all of the people they break normal protocols to interact with before it kills them, do you think that's even on the table? From the state or federal governments that can't make them wear masks or get a vaccine? From the antimasker/antivax police threatening to resign if they're mandated to get it? From the military that now has to threaten to discharge its right wingers en masse because they refuse to get it?

                      I didn't say the choice was pretty. That's the choice. These are the clearly defined sides and one of them obviously gets you or someone you care about killed. The other kills someone who chose to die. Are you going to solve the trolley problem by starting the trolley, running ahead of it, and tying yourself to the track that has the most people on it?

                        It seems you are attempting to make a "realist" rationalization of why you're happy that this guy died. You are saying that because our government and health care actions are so ineffective, that it's actually something to celebrate that this guy was killed?

                        I'm finding this rationale is lazy. In the case that the government was actually able to implement real lockdowns, providing food and rent relief for those that are kept indoors, do these people still deserve to die? Like, in China's response to the pandemic, these people would either be vaccinated, or they would be kept indoors. There wouldn't be this option to literally kill themselves because of misinformation.

                        If they would be alive if the government weren't supporting their decisions to take ivermectin and go about transmitting covid, isn't it the government who is responsible not only for their death, but also for their transmitting covid?

                        I have a hard time with your personal responsibility take.

                          No, I'm saying that because he is a terrorist I'm glad he's dead. If he sneezed in a jar and then threw that jar at the ground it would be a bioweapon. If he sneezed on a blanket and gave that blanket to you it would be a bioweapon. He encouraged others to sneeze onto everything and had the obvious result everyone told him would happen. With as much mental autonomy as you have.

                          I fully recognise that there are failures at all level of government. That this hog voted for. The healthcare system is a moral abomination and guess who voted for it. His life up until this point was creating the mousetrap and then he spent his final year trying to convince people to eat the mysterious cheese before taking a bite himself. His personal responsibility is only the same you face when you wash your hands, put on a face mask or a seat belt, click one google result over the other. The most basic shit he chose at every turn to not do, specifically to risk your life. I can hate the government as well as the people who enable it at the same time. I can hate an ideology and the people who reinforce it at the level on which I exist. If you don't, what is the obvious result of this person spending another day walking around? How many innocent people are you willing to murder to preserve this plague rat? Knowing how hard he's worked to eat the cheese and force you to. This is not some abstract moral puzzle for old white dandies to jerk themselves off over. This is an immediate threat to your life and to any population you could claim to be protecting by enabling antivaxxers. Fuck the people they vote for but those aren't the people sending their children to school with yours. Their parents don't go into the nursing homes yours will. It's this guy and every carrier like him.

                            As far as it's not an abstract moral puzzle - which part. That there are people who have literally been tricked into spreading misinformation and disease, or the part that you choose to celebrate that used person's death?

                            I get what you're saying. I don't have to be happy that a person is dead now that would be alive under a different system. This is not a person welding money and power, this is not a terrorist, this is a brainwashed dummy who is a victim of the system. Literally all saying is rebelling in their death, regardless how ironic you see it being, is blue maga lib shit.

                            I am kind of suprised to see you suggest that the answer is to :vote: better.

                              Which doesn't matter when the result is that they're actively spreading a disease. Nazi shit tricks mass shooters into committing massacres but we don't absolve them by pretending they're an impressionable baby. When they die it's a net gain at every level of the system I'm still free to condemn without their obstruction. This plague rat absolutely is a terrorist because he is purposely spreading a fatal disease. Any erasure there just makes you complicit in that. Maybe your fucking around won't result in finding out.

                                    Just because I refuse to be happy about the death of a rube doesn't make me an antivaxxer, it makes me not a fucking monster. I think the government needs to step up, and every preventable death that is a result of shitty government policies is a sad one.

        Fair enough if this was just a small handful of people, but given that the anti-vax movement is tens to hundreds of millions strong it makes it far more of a structural failing than a personal one. Not to mention that many anti-vaxxers are trying to spread information they genuinely believe is for the wellbeing of their communities.

        Yeah they're obviously wrong, but it's pretty fucking lib to ignore the structural reasons for their misinformed position and make it about personal responsibility

        I would possibly be more conflicted if I wasn't a caretaker for a high risk person who currently cannot get vaccinated/know so many friends and family with very young children who are at risk as well. I think the suffering of these people needs to be broadcast far and wide, not out of spite (well, maybe a little), but also because it's easy to see a youtube video of someone saying "vax bad" and then not follow up and realize they died a week later. It's easy to float through that kind of content mill and not see the people dropping dead as they go but still fueling misinformation.

The more ways we mock and highlight the self-destruction of antivaxers, the more stigmatized and embarrassing it becomes for them. People on the fence notice that shit. It’s the same way we belittled the klan and made them into a joke.

          I mean uhh-

            based and redpilled.

            Some 11 year old Black girl (ineligible for the vaccine) just died of covid a few weeks ago.

            How many children died because of reality-denying subhumans like these? Zero sympathy. They must be humiliated, full stop.

            The next logical extension of the absolutely cucked and principle-less philosophy described above is sympathizing with nazis because "they truly believe what they preach" and "they've been propagandized by misinformation" LEL :agony-mescaline:

      laughing at people dying that aren’t actively supporting capitalist inequality is pretty gross.

      good thing that didn't happen

    These chuds are invested enough in their ideology to eat an industrial grade neurotoxin meant for horses.

    What makes anyone think they wouldn’t also be the first to pick up guns against any socialist revolution or org that gained momentum? More of them going now means less of them around later.

    This is fuckin stupid. These people aren't the enemy. This shit is just a distraction from the ruling class tech lords who are using this pandemic to transfer massive amounts of wealth and power. They are more than happy that all the peasants hate each other and spend all their time staring at a screen, believe me.

    Cuz yeah, it's totally this guy's fault that he has lived his whole life surrounded by bullshit media propaganda and insanely corrupt pharmaceutical companies that he doesn't trust. Great material analysis. Are you 16 or something? I fuckin hope so, jesus christ

        That's not even true. A lot of these people (got some in my family and I used to work a job where I crossed paths with a bunch) have totally insane politics where they hate the government and are super paranoid but also love cops and the military. Their politics make zero sense. If anything it's worth talking to these people because they've become distrustful of the govt/corporations but have no way to really put a bigger picture together.

        Or we can just laugh at them when they die I guess

            Based. The comment above you describes like 70% of chuds lol

            The other 30% are just more consciously explicitly aware of what they're doing

          Sounds like typical tea party; the government is bad but we need to pay cops and military to protect us from criminals/minorities.

          Yeah I grew up in the milieu of a blue state so it's my kneejerk reaction to laugh at them but being in a bunch of car groups will show you that a lot of these people are just deeply, deeply misguided and propagandized

          of course they can be dangerous and downright unpleasant but a lot of them are rightfully mad

          Caleb Maupin (I know people HATE him for some reason) grew up around these types and he's said the same type of thing and I trust his opinion because he's actually from rural America

          love cops and the military

          Probably because both of these afford them respect which is something they get very little of

            their "respect" relies on the subjugation of entire populations. fuck them. death to every chud with the exact same white supremacist colonizer politics they've had for 500 years..

      As much as I hate a lot of these people (because they're usually racist) I was browsing r/hermancainaward and it was funny at first but it's honestly really really sad

      these people are basically comitting mass suicide and our government literally did absolutely nothing to prevent it

      not to mention a lot of these people are from areas that got shitted on from deindustrialization

      it's like how Brace went to the QAnon thing expecting to laugh but by the end he was just deeply depressed and horrified

        Something like 30% of American counties don't even have a single psychiatrist.

        Rural medicine is a joke in the US.

        Yeah they are getting played, it's obvious. What bothers me more is that people on the left are falling for this propaganda that this is the enemy, these people are to blame. It's total misdirection.

          I don't care about people who want me dead, the fact that there is ALWAYS someone like you ready to make excuses just shows their level of privilege, you actually had another comment about how they get no respect, absolutely laughable, NO ONE else but white chuds are given the credence they get in every scenario, no other group of people are routinely propped up in half assed arguments like yours as some sort of mystical figurehead of the working class, I'm fucking tired of seeing it, I don't care about them full stop and hope they all die, eat shit with your concern trolling

            Get as mad as you want, but you sound just like the chud psychos when you say you want a whole broadly defined group of people to die. This is exactly what the ruling class wants to happen rn. This is a major propoganda push. You are falling for it.

      Good to know reactionaries aren't actually our enemies because they're not all capitalists.

      The venn diagram between these people and the people who worship the militarized white supremacist police state is a circle.
