Good morning, everyone!

- It’s a hoax / fear porn
- The figures aren’t real / almost no one actually dies from it
- Mah freedumb!!!
Every so often, though, reality sneaks in and whomps them upside their stupid heads :

Capitol cop Michael Fanone slams table at Jan 6 hearing as tearful colleagues condemn ‘terrorist’ rioters who wanted to ‘execute them’ during ‘medieval battle’
daily mail ^Posted on 7/27/2021, 11:22:09 AM by algore
U.S. Capitol cops and DC Metropolitan Police officers called rioters ‘terrorists’, attacked Republicans who have downplayed January 6 and recalled the ‘medieval battle’ they faced during the first hearing of the select committee on Tuesday.
Officers Harry Dunn, Aquilino Gonell, Michael Fanone and Daniel Hodges gave harrowing testimony to the panel of seven Democrats and two Republicans – Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger – describing how they feared the rioters would kill them and criticized the treatment of their colleagues.
They also told the panel how they were confronted by people waving MAGA flags, Trump supporters saying President Biden didn’t win the election, and others racially abusing them.
Dunn said he was called the n-word more than a dozen times and one rioter said: ‘This n***er voted for Biden.’
Officer Hodges said: ‘To my perpetual confusion, I saw the thin blue line flag, the symbol of support for law enforcement, more than once being carried by the terrorists as they ignored our demands and continued to assault us.’
In his testimony, Gonell recounted how the ‘rioters call me traitor
‘The rioters were vicious and relentless. We found ourselves in a violent battle,’ he said of that day.
He described his experience ‘like something from a medieval battle. We fought hand to hand, inch by inch, to prevent an invasion of the Capitol by the mob intend on subverting our democracy

Majority of Covid misinformation came from 12 people, report finds
theguardian.com ^ | 7/17/21 | Erum Salam
Posted on 7/17/2021, 7:51:34 PM by ransomnoteThe vast majority of Covid-19 anti-vaccine misinformation and conspiracy theories originated from just 12 people, a report by the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) cited by the White House this week found.
CCDH, a UK/US non-profit and non-governmental organization, found in March that these 12 online personalities they dubbed the “disinformation dozen” have a combined following of 59 million people across multiple social media platforms, with Facebook having the largest impact. CCDH analyzed 812,000 Facebook posts and tweets and found 65% came from the disinformation dozen. Vivek Murthy, US surgeon general, and Joe Biden focused on misinformation around vaccines this week as a driving force of the virus spreading.
On Facebook alone, the dozen are responsible for 73% of all anti-vaccine content, though the vaccines have been deemed safe and effective by the US government and its regulatory agencies. And 95% of the Covid misinformation reported on these platforms were not removed.

Saw something about Tucker, from his fascist vacation lair, saying that people should FIGHT (sue? shoot? make whiny noises?) their employer, if said employer tries to impose a vaccination mandate.
Like FOX did, he didn’t say
By all means, they should quit their job (or get fired for refusing to vaccinate). I hear that Burger King is hiring.
And, of course, disown all their friends and family members who have gotten vaccinated.
I’m surprised I haven’t seen a single thread about Jeffrey Rosen’s testimony. Are they scared shitless, or simply unaware?
Good question. Help me keep an eye out.
