That twitter thread was fantastic! I think Emilyjo is a mother and I felt bad for her because she got completely played by the forces Gato talked about. She fell for the narrative and thought her kids were at significant risk from COVID and getting them vaxxed ASAP was the best thing she could possibly do to keep them safe. How many victims like that are there our there?

Yes. It is heartbreaking to see the way parents react. They do not realize that the chances of having their children have a severe complication or death from covid are like hitting the lottery twice. First they have to catch covid, then be one of the 0.001% who dies. So they fall for the fearmongering and give their children the shot. Once you take the shot...

But it was reported, even in the main stream media!, that children had a low death / side effects rate! Did the parents forget this?

You can’t fix stupid.

It really is. To have your child sick to that degree. And then to have people mock you and such. It’s terrible.
