Have you always seen yourself as a bit of a loser?

If you have, then this movement is for you.

Unlike most movements that start small then get bigger:

Like Gay rights, LGBTQI rights, women’s rights, the Rrght to die with dignity,

the list is endless. All phenomenal successes, that gained permanent rights

enshrined in legislation.

So what about the ‘Right to do Whatever the Fuck I Want, whenever itTakes My Fancy’ ,

like not get vaccinated if I don’t particularly feel like it today.

Why has this campaign, unlike so many campaigns before it, taken off like a lead balloon?

Maybe it’s time to ask ourselves that question?

The Anti-vax, anti-lockdown, anti-mask, anti-sanitizer, anti-isolation, anti quarantine movement, has the overwhelming support of every industry that stands to gain from the sale of snake oil, and other exotic Covid remedies, enormous support within the Qanon cult, the M.A.G.A. are all on board, North Korea has joined in, even the infamous Russian computer hackers are baking it 100%. (but I suspect their ‘grass-roots’ organization is probably ‘astro-turf’)

So what in the hell went wrong?

The Anti-vaxer Movement started really big.

2 years ago, when Covid  vaccinations were first mentioned, around half the population were very hesitant to get one.

But here we are 2 long and annoying years later and at least 95%

of the entire population is vaccinated. Soon it is expected to reach 99%

This despite the most comprehensive campaign of disinformation ever unleashed on the world since, well since the Donald got himself elected.

What a monumental failure, what a colossal failure, what an unprecedented failure, quite possibly unmatched in modern history.

From 50% support to zero support in 2 years! (give or take 1 or 2 percent)

Well done team!

Maybe it is time to stop flogging a dead horse.

Maybe it is time to shut up for a while and give us all a break…..please!
