The issue I see with that is that in the intervening time every dumb motherfucker in this country has decided they need to own several firearms.

Fox News seems to be in the process of trying to retool their messaging on Covid vaccines. I went and looked there the other day on their Covid news section of the website and could only find one or two items among dozens of clips that even contained any messaging suggesting people get vaccinated or mentioning that serious cases are currently largely among the unvaccinated. Hannity now has a clip about trusting the science, and there was one clip from the Five where they actually advocate vaccination but it's again buried in a muddled mess of "well it's still your choice" etc.

I'm hoping there's starting to be a realization that going hard with an antivax message has a lot of risks to it, although it's probably too late to change the minds of most idiots.

Sean Hannity is literally going "I believe science and the vaccine is real science, please get the vaccine."

Which is amazing considering his behavior for a year+ before this :v:

I don't remember where I read it, but for these people "trusted sources" are only trusted because they get told exactly what they want to hear. Sure, some of their viewers might decide to get vaccinated because they trust Hannity more than their spouses or children, but the vast majority will scream, "FOX has been infiltrated by the communist atheist nazi muslims!" and start watching OAN instead.

Yeah, I just watched this and he's literally pleading, coming from him the vibe is like the End of Days.

I've been doing vaccine outreach in Conservative communities and stuff like this is important.

I'm not surprised that Tucker Carlson hasn't changed his tune and continues to dodge the question like the fashy little punk he his. I've always had just a bit more respect for Hannity than Tucker Carlson. Hannity is a Neo-Con scumbag business Republican who probably watches A Christmas Carol in reverse just so the moral of the story is that people should learn to be less charitable and try to screw their employees out of wages as much as possible.

But the only reason Carlson sometimes sounds like a socialist is because he's strasserist crytpo-nazi.

So, uh...at my new job the lead salesman thinks Covid is a hoax and that kids are soft now because he coaches youth football TO WIN but kids get participation trophies. Like it loving matters. I wonder what he listens to in his car and watches on TV? Hmmm....I'll have to ask him.

Our production guy came in with a mask today because someone tested positive at some social event he was at, told us about it and I thought that was rather responsible of him.

Also, more flag talk: I saw a big gently caress Off truck today with a U.S. flag so laden with different colored alternating stripes that it was bordering on a rainbow and all I could think of was "keep going. Your'e SO close". If we work at it, we can get every Ford f150 redneck in the south proudly waving gay pride flags.

I can't help but be incredibly cynical about it and assume they've just noticed that if all their followers don't get the vaccine, they will have a lot less followers real quick. The flip side of the kushner "it will be mostly libs that die!" bullshit.

Honestly, even if it is that dark of a calculation, whatever it takes, as long as people get the drat vaccine.

People who are way too into sports are the loving worst, especially youth sports. A guy so used to work for is part of a big hockey family, and would never stop making hockey analogies to what we were working on no matter how useless they were. He was incredibly chuddy. He was some level of girls hockey coach at a local college, not head though. About 10 years ago one of our guys committed suicide and he skipped the guy’s funeral to go to a hockey game.

This is a modern republican ploy where they think if they do one good thing, it negates all the other times they told you to attack people for wearing a mask or to call the police on parents whose kid has a mask on.

I kinda don't want that because once they realize it they'll try to hijack it like Pepe and the OK sign to "own the libs". Either that or it'll turn into the red hat situation where any time you see one you gotta spend a few seconds analyzing whether the person is a normal average person or some racist fuckhead

I don't think anyone buys anything from Fox News, at least not anyone that hasn't been mainlining Hannity's hair gel for years. It's one clip. No more. No less. It's a good thing in and of itself if it saves even one life. But I haven't seen a huge swathe of people acting like Fox is going to replace Waters with Maddow or AOC is going to invite Hannity over for tea. People reporting that they did one clip and that finally a single good thing came out of their house of lies isn't assuming that they've suddenly transformed into the good guys.
