That is exactly what I keep saying, but then I come across insanity like this tweet CJ Hopkins featured in his latest post (https://cjhopkins.substack.com/p/new-normal-winter-is-coming) from a “doctor,” no less:

The denial is definitely strong. Fear got us into this mess (fear made the masses open to manipulation), and not until their fear of the vaccines is greater than their fear of covid and fear of losing their perceived moral and intellectual superiority will anything change.
Precisely. I just don’t know if we can ever get there given these cult members are inhabiting an alternative reality and would rather die than admit they’re wrong or, worse, admit the “conspiracy theorists” are right.
The more Gustave Le Bon I read, the more hopeless I feel about deprogramming the Covidians. This is from “The Psychology of Revolution”:
“a political or religious belief constitutes an act of faith elaborated in unconsciousness, over which, in spite of all appearances, reason has no hold. I also showed that belief often reaches such a degree of intensity that nothing can be opposed to it. The man hypnotised by his faith becomes an Apostle, ready to sacrifice his interests, his happiness, and even his life for the triumph of his faith. The absurdity of his belief matters little; for him it is a burning reality. Certitudes of mystic origin possess the marvellous power of entire domination over thought, and can only be affected by time.”

Get your kids vaccinated if you can. These side effects are rare and manageable. Help protect us all. #CovidVaccine”
The mind … boggles.

Sure, my son is going to die. But his death will be "managed." That's what matters.

Yes they actually say such daft things.
Spot-effing-on. My heart hurts.
What kind of parent sacrifices their child like that for ‘the cause’ and fifteen seconds of internet fame?
A socioparent.
