The Delta Variant, the GOP, Propaganda Monkeys and their Contard Base

   For the longest time now, the GOP and the right wing propaganda media outlets have been convincing their base that Covid-19 is a hoax and discouraging people from getting vaccinated. Now it's coming back to bite them in the ass. The Delta variant of the coronavirus has been running rampant around the world. Cases in the U.S. have been on the rise primarily in states with low vaccination rates. And most of those states are, you guessed it, Republican leaning states. Now they're freaking out because the Delta variant is killing their base. This cartoon sums it up succinctly. Trump supporters are dying because of the disinformation being spread. Check out this article and this one. It's difficult for me to feel sympathy for people this fucking stupid. 

  Fox News has been displaying split personality disorder recently regarding vaccinations. Hypocritical motherfucker, Sean Hannity, is now calling for people to get vaccinated. Here's the video.

  This is the same Sean Hannity that downplayed the severity of Covid-19 in the early stages of the pandemic.
  Despite the sudden turnaround of Fox hosts like Hannity and Steve Doocy regarding the vaccine, other hosts like Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham have railed against it. They've railed against so called 'Vaccine Passports' even though Fox News has instituted a strict Covid-19 policy involving a vaccine passport. I'm not sure what the endgame is for these people and other right wing media outlets like Newsmax and OAN. The more they convince their base not to get vaccinated, the more their base will suffer the effects of this disease. The mixed messages they're sending is only going to add to the problem. So why are they doing it? Ratings according to an ex-Fox reporter. Here's the video.
  For Fox News, it all boils down to money.
