the antivax, antimask crowd are motivated purely out of 1) spite and 2) fear that the rest of us think they are low-class trash.

problem is, they are. it has nothing to do with money and everything to do with them being filthy and having dirty nasty families & spreading disease
normalize bullying the antivax just like you would any other racist or nazi because the line is paper-thin at this point and these people are actively choosing violence and murder over something inconsequential
sorry if that seems harsh but the both-sidesing of this is driving me crazy. bottom line, antivax people are gross, with gross bodies that harbor illness, and they walk through life not caring if they hurt anybody else with their preventable disease. that's not a 2-sided issue
I really, really want this to be the conversation. I am so tired of giving up ground to people who don't deserve a place at the table just to be polite. fuck that. you bathe in death, you worship it, and that makes you my enemy and it makes you my inferior. and that's horrible.

Trouble is we thought vaccination was about sovereignty when really the metaphor is POVERTY. That's how the antivax think about Covid: Like poverty it's something that will happen to you if you are 1) unlucky or 2) of low character - that it's mostly something that happens to POC
And just like the poor hate the poor, they hate the people who "have Covid," which is POC. It's just that they're used to hating them, so we don't think about it.
white supremacy is a huge part of antivax for this reason - white people with covid are the aberration, not the rule
The numbers don't bear it out, of course, but they never do. An antivaxxer with Covid is like a temporarily embarrassed millionaire -- that's why they don't want it on the death certificate or in the paper. Because they failed to uphold white supremacy by getting the illness.

I watched all of American Horror Stories on Sunday, the Lord's day, and I must say it made me feel yucky in a way AHS seldom but sometimes makes me feel yucky, but for almost the whole time. Some moments of genius but mostly I never understood why it was happening & still don't
I really liked the grindhouse one and the hype house one and I have been saying "Bro means 'brother'!" pretty regularly. but the murder house ones either tried too hard (#3) or not hard enough (#1 & #2). It all suffered from the stylish #RedTide binge that preceded it maybe
Because MAN could I watch 13 episodes of that. Just gorgeous
