Darwin wins again

This highlights a very strange phenomenon which seems to be gripping large numbers of people, mostly confined to those socially conservative, right-leaning and fundamentalist in religious beliefs, but not entirely. It’s also not entirely confined to Americans, but once again it seems to be affecting them more than most other countries’ populations.

That phenomenon is a complete mistrust of their own government’s scientific experts, and the questioning of their motives and competence in the current pandemic, especially on the subject of masking and vaccination. That so many people prefer to believe non-experts, either some online blogger, or TV host….or hellfire pastor at their local church...or just about anyone without medical qualifications you could think of, is just so staggering as to be almost unbelievable. What exactly is going on in their brains that makes them believe it’s going to be a better bet to ingest an animal dewormer instead of getting vaccinated by their own doctor? What kind of invidious messaging has got into their brains to make them believe this ? Why is it this demographic of right-leaning, politically conservative types that seems to be most susceptible to this mistrust of vaccination and mistaken belief in alternative cures?

I invite some explanations because I’m at a loss to know.

Only one cure for the Ivermectin overdose...an enema of Clorox and Bull Semen

That can't be. BDair swears it's better and safer than the vaccine, and since there are no hospitals overrun with vaccine reactions, this must be false. You guys, he totally did his research, so you can trust him.
P.S. Hopefully Ivermectin OD is fatal.

It takes a blithering idiot to gamble with their own lives in the way that these people are doing.
