This is the writing of a “Marxist” anti-vaxxer. They obviously (and somewhat reasonably) don’t listen to mainstream media, so it’s more difficult.

    These kinds of takes are only possible by hyper-individualized westerners, who have to completely ignore the success of China’s lockdowns (and their extremely low death rates because of it), and exclude it from their analysis.

    Medicine and medical science exists outside the united states and its pharma companies.

      I don’t exclude China’s successes. But you are nuts if you think that could work in the US. What China did was incredible. Lockdown for 2 weeks to stop the spread, ensuring zero covid. Then for the rest of the pandemic, everyone can go to concerts and water parks in crowds.

      What you got in the US was administrative frustration that the social fabric of the US was not more cohesive, so they decided to punish EVERYONE for it by locking down for a year, even though no one is at fault, it’s just the system.

      Also, you are a westerner too, I’m not sure why you are dismissing my opinion based on my identity, you sound like this:

      Maybe make an actual point.

      Medicine and medical science exists outside the united states and its pharma companies.

      You really discount the power of imperialism and the WHO.
      By the way, Cuba’s Abdala vaccine doesn’t even use mRNA! It’s a traditional vaccine that actually works! I want it here! Thank you for proving my point. No one wants this mRNA shit unless it is being forced on them.
