And now those are the only people that come into the restaurant. How well do you think they tip?

Serious answer, Republicans loving love wedge issues because it means they don't have to give their base anything that would upset their constituents (rich fuckers). Don't get me wrong. Dems love 'em, too, and for the same reasons, but they seem to be too lazy and/or incompetent to go out and find new ones.

So, a few decades ago (IIRC, part of the Civil Rights Act fallout), the GOP was looking for something to use to gently caress the Dems with, and latched onto abortion. Up until that point, a lot of churches saw it as the humane way to go instead of bringing a kid into the world who was going to have a supremely lovely life of poverty. But, they started in with the propaganda, and suddenly abortion was murdering babies.

A little while later, some stem cells were harvested from an aborted fetus and used for research purposes. Instead of seeing that as something good that came out of the abortion (since the fetal stem cells still in use for research today come from the same original line), they started fear mongering about how medicine (and vaccines) relied on baby murder.

Add in the continual whittling away of our education system in order to remove any troublesome issues like "critical thinking" and you've got a base that's ripe for being told that vaccines are evil, that they have 5G magnetic tracking chips in them, or that they turn you into a crocodile, especially if a Democrat says that they're necessary.

Yeah. We're super hosed. Like, even if we locked down (really locked down, not the fake bullshit from last year) now, a shitload of hospitalizations and deaths are already baked in.
