Ben Shapiro recently created a list of cherished narratives that Democrats are abandoning as the reality of the Omicron epidemics sweeping highly vaccinated, masked-up, blue cities starts to sink in.
Here are the top four items on his list. I agree a that we are seeing a major shift in the official party line and have added example supporting links to Shapiro’s list:
1. Cloth masks are ineffective against omicron (Leanna Wen, CNN);
2. The vaccinated can spread and get covid;
3. The death rate is comparable to the flu (Chris Hayes);
4. Many people are entering hospitals with covid, not from covid (Fauci);
For the full list and comments see:
Have biology and physics really changed?
Or has the narrative about COVID coming from Biden and his allies always been “follow the political science”?
Are Democrats realizing that their cherished policies of fear and division have become a political liability?
The virus destroyed one administration…and many were fine with and encouraged that. Now the virus is damaging another administration and the same people are not so happy with that.
Expecting career politicians and their supporters to not act out of political convenience is like expecting a shark not to swim and hunt. It’s just what they do.
All true. And the people lamenting the destruction of the previous administration are cheering on the damage to the current. Standard procedure for both sides.
Those of us in reality have been saying all this for months and most of it since May 2020. But your political priors were more important than the data. You had to have your demonization narrative.
**So welcome to reality. And screw all for pretending you didn’t know this so you could have fun crapping on Trump and DeSantis and all your red state relatives.
And btw, AOC and all you Leftist covid fanatics – those whose virtue signaling authoritarian lockdown nonsense that has resulted in millions of lives destroyed – stay in your states and leave mine alone.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ AOC is vacationing in Florida, without her mask ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
We chose data and freedom. You chose alarmism and unearned moral superiority. Stay in NY, NJ, CA, and the rest – and enjoy the actual paranoid nanny state you created among your friends who reward you for telling them they will kill their kids and grandma if they don’t panic.
He summed up my view on all of this and what I’ve been posting here in Hannity Land since last year.
They released his schedule before the new years. He was doing his regular duties intermixed with spending time with his wife during her chemo treatments. Cancer doesn’t take time off for the holidays.
And meantime while the parties are infighting about the virus, the communists and likely creators of the disease are making more bat labs just because they can.
