Moderna has a flu shot. It works. It works well. It is safe. It is safe in people with compromised immune systems (like cancer patients!).
Trump’s nutjob at FDA, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., appears to have ordered FDA to refuse to even accept the application to review the shot for approval.
RFK wants to kill your grandma. Fuck RFK.
@mcnado Your thread revealed two anti-vaxxers I was pleased to block. Other Kennedy family members should do more to publicly condemn RFK, Jr’s nonsense on a regular basis.

@mcnado In a cult, the lie is not meant to be believed, it is meant to be repeated. The more effort you expend repeating the lie, the more difficult it is, the more you prove yourself a member. The lie becomes a moral pillar of the community.
This is how humans work. We tell ourselves lies that we have put this behind us, but the overwhelming majority of us doesn’t even have a clue how to do that!

@mcnado RFK Jr and the Trump regime also want to kill your kids with measles and polio.

@mcnado “wants to kill your grandma”—(raises hand—that’d be me, huh?)
Why kill grandmas, you might ask?
We’re on social security.
We use Medicare.
We might live in a house (lookin’ at you, Sec Bessent—ahem!)Now imagine millions of us die
less social security to pay out
less Medicare to pay for
more houses on the marketI’ve never felt so determined to live to be 100+

@mcnado Let's hope Moderna still goes to the EU for approval.

@grammasaurus @mcnado Uff. I actually never thought about the Medicare and house part. That really hits...
And it's just pure logic evilness. As can be expected of those people currently in charge in the US...

At least on my instance, disinformation about public health is a violation of server rules, so it's worth looking into if you can report them before you block them.

@mcnado probably has access to an evidenced case that RFK's policy is dangerous, misguided, and wicked. (Whether mcnado can articulate that case in another matter.)
But I see no evidence that RFK actively wants to kill anyone's granny.
This sort of hyperbolic falsehood is used by both sides of the #vaccine wars. So I disengage
@2legged @mcnado
MRNA vaccines have been proven to work for people who are otherwise unable to take vaccines. Many of these people are grannies.
Refusing to allow MRNA vaccines to be studied (after they have proven to be effective) means that RFK is actively cutting off ways to prevent people being killed by disease.So...At best he doesn't care if grannies die, as long as it's in service of not further testing MRNA vaccines, and he's doing this while taking actions which all available evidence shows will raise grannies' chance of death.
That's close enough for me. Is there a leap in logic that I missed? At the very worst I see slightly exaggerated representation of the truth. Where is the falsehood on the side of vaccines?

@yesh Tthat's a very longwinded way of confirming that as I suspected, there is no evidence that RFK wants to kill grannies.
You seem to have retreated from @mcnado's claims, to a charge of reckless endangerment. That is a very different matter to an active desire to kill.
The failure to respect such distinctions is part of the hyperbolic propaganda which has spewed from both sides of the vaccine debates nearly for two centuries. This is a good illustration of how little has changed.

@2legged
Your answer, basically
1) 'You used too many words and retreated from @mcnado's position',
2) 'reckless endangerment isn't as bad as murder', and
3) 'both sides are bad'
Short answer? 'As if that makes it okay!?!'Long answers:
1) I replied to a post and made my own claim. The 'change' to my position was to make it known. That is not a retreat.
RFK has been shown evidence that more grannies are likely to die if we disallow MRNA vaccine approval going through a scientific process.
Assuming RFK wants to do what he does… with no hyperbole we see: RFK's desire not to endanger grannies is weaker than his desire to kill MRNA vaccines' approval.2) Heads of HHS shouldn't kill at a population level by way of reckless endangerment either.
3)@mcnado at _worst_ exaggerated, and the effect is RFK could hear about it and feel bad.
Can you show me an anti-vax position which does as little harm? Can you show me you publicly criticizing anti-vax beyond 'both sides' critiques?
'Both sides are bad' <thbbptttttt> -

@2legged that’s some semantic dumbfuckery bothsidesing. Get wrecked.

@mcnado Do you think it would do any good to write our congress people about this?
