The Fear Campaign

First the billionaire space race. Now maybe a billionaire longevity race

I've seen an avalanche of scare tactic headlines regarding Covid-19, such as the nurse who coldly, callously tells patients, "It's too late," as they lay dying and begging for a vaccine. I decided to copy all the ones I saw this week. Here's a list of them. These are only the ones I ran across. I'm sure there were more I didn't see. The hateful tone has calmed down a lot compared to the last few weeks when there was an all-out push to scare people into getting a vaccine. The main component to these is using fear and/or abusing/shaming the unvaccinated. Whatever happened to my body my choice? I can't do anything about the formatting problems. I need to dump Blogger.

I don't have a link to the story, but an Israeli scientist(?) or politician was caught in a hot mic moment telling someone else that Covid passports have nothing to do with science. They're to force people to get vaccinated.
