Less Than Half Of White Adults, Republicans, Unvaccinated Are Worried About Getting Sick From COVID-19 | via @KFF #Hubris #PresumedInvincibility #Cult45* kff.org/coronavirus-co… 
Omicron’s ripping through America (especially in red/purple states) because refusing masks/vaccines/lockdowns has become a proxy for White Republican identity. They’re peer pressuring themselves into catching/spreading Covid, overdosing on Ivermectin and dying of Whiteness.

So much so that as their base increasingly succumbs to the virus they were made to believe is a hoax, the @GOP’s rendered itself powerless to stop the bleeding. #ProLifeIsALie 🤡🩸👹

The article calls it a “culture of self reliance” but it could just as easily be described as “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” culture, courtesy of the @GOP. They rob their voters of everything then shame/propagandize them out of seeking restitution. “Let them eat COVID”.

If “all lives matter” and the @GOP is really “pro-life” why do they shamelessly preside over a COVID-19 epidemic amongst *their* White voters fueled by *their* fiscal malfeasance, fuckery of Obamacare and collusion with Big Putin, Trump, FB/Fox “News” & the Ivermectin lobby? 🤷🏾♀️

Reality: the wave of hostility under Trump has made us sick. 👹🤡🩸

The dots aren’t hard to connect here. Predominantly White people who live in rural America religiously vote for Republicans who in turn worsen their socioeconomic woes, give them unfettered access to COVID-19, then look the other way when they die of despair. Sociopathy.

“The anxiety of whites is coming from a misperception that their dominant status in society is being threatened, which is manifesting in multiple forms of psychological and physiological stress….the stress has resulted in what researchers call "deaths of despair." #MAGAMasochism

IOW, White Republicans were gifted a head start on saving themselves from the worst of COVID by virtue of its debut in urban metros & their segregation in the burbs/rural outposts of 🇺🇸, yet they squandered it on the “strength” of eugenic magical thinking/presumed invincibility.

The MAGAts were explicitly warned that Pleasantville USA doesn’t have the medical infrastructure or competent leadership to withstand a raging pandemic, but NO, they wanted bad hair cuts, motorcycle/DT/Klan rallies, open restaurants/bars/schools, sporting events & a RAPTURE. 👹🤡

“And while for much of the pandemic, older Americans and people of color were more likely to die from the virus, the demographics of those dying from Covid have shifted too, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.” - @nytimes nytimes.com/interactive/20…
“The change in death rates among groups is starker by race and ethnicity, and the death rate has risen particularly sharply for middle-aged white people. Covid-19 now accounts for a much larger share of all deaths for that group than it did before vaccines were widely available.”
