Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Disabled and immunocompromised are two totally different things mate.. If you can't walk, you're considered disabled, but there is no reason you can't get vaccinated
And even many immunocompromised people can get vaccinated. To be blunt, anyone who actually knows an immunocompromised person isn't going to visit them when they have the flu, simply because there is no mandatory quarantine period.
The common cold, flu and herpes can kill immunocompromised people. So, I hope you're willing to isolate when you have a cold sore.. In fact, you could argue that almost every person on this planet is contagious for something at the moment.
As I said, with the exception for people who CANNOT get vaccinated, there is literally NO reason why they shouldn't have been vaccinated by the time Biden became president. And guess who was responsible for not isolating and telling people not to wear masks? His name sounds like Tramp.
It's very annoying when someone is this condescending and it's because they made a mistake while following the conversation.
People are disabled BY covid. Covid does both, in fact. Even if you're vaccinated.
None of the shit you're saying right now is honestly even relevant because you're talking about a vaccine only strategy that's entirely voluntary for the individual and that vaccine isn't going to stop the pandemic or even spare people from the effects of it over the long term.
Liberals today are now saying the exact same thing Trump cultists were saying in Aug 2020 word for fucking word.
One good reason is the vaccine didn't exist at that point >_>
NO. THAT WAS BIDEN AND THE LIBERALS. GET IT STRAIGHT.
When the fucking chuds were doing their fishnet mask protest bullshit it was still normal to mask. It wasn't until the DEMOCRATS started trying to manufacture the sociological construction of the end of the pandemic that all of a sudden it became weird to mask.

I know asking people to listen to something is a stretch but if you want an example of what I'm talking about, this podcast episode is reading a timeline so you can just skim through. I also recommend their Covid: year X episodes for a timeline of administrative actions. They're all very long I'm sorry.

You must have a short memory. In fact, Trump even harrassed Biden for wearing a mask during the debate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=acSFjfyEx-o
Literally all I have to do is look at the dates on the URLs you linked
You didn't read my comment. You don't know what is even going on in this argument.
If you can't be bothered to put in even an iota of effort then just sit down and shut up
Nobody knows what's going on in this argument..
Because every response you make is some weird tangent. You get a link that shows trump sabotaging the covid response. And you think the date is what matters?
I bet you read books by checking the copyright
Hence why this comment is my last
If you can't even fucking pay attention to what's being said, like I fucking told you, sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up. I'm not kidding. Pay the fuck attention and make a salient point to the argument or don't fucking participate. I don't understand how this is so fucking hard for you.
Good
