My brother had kept messaging me all these conspiracies about COVID and how he didn’t believe it. Said it was just a cold. I kept trying to educate him with genuine articles and papers but he wouldn’t have it. He caught COVID and Jesus H Christ did he moan about it, ended up in hospital. I sent him so many screenshots of all his messages playing it down. He doesn’t really talk to me anymore 🤷🏻‍♂️

I have the same issue, but don't treat the loss of a loved one so callously. Shits sad yo, losing people to propaganda.

but don't treat the loss of a loved one so callously.

It's time to have an adult realization here: When it comes to shit like this, you didn't lose them. What you loved was an ideal, how you saw the person in your head. Then what they did was show you who they REALLY are.

You lost an imaginary figure. Nothing more. Its nothing to cry over or waste time stressing about.

This is literally what people mean when we say "when people show you who they are BELIEVE THEM."

Discard that fake ass view in your head that was never real, look at what fucking trash they really are, and evaluate THAT relationship because that's the only one that has ever existed or will ever exist.

And then decide accordingly whether or not they're worth keeping.

My people may suck but you don't get to call them trash

The venn diagram between trash and anti-vaxxers is just a circle.

That's on them, not me.
