This just teaches us that there is no triumph of mankind that is SO GREAT that people will not let their political delusions doom us anyway. If we hadn’t found ourselves in this shitty clown show where scientists are bad and facts don’t matter based on political leanings, this vaccine could have been touted as a massive victory for capitalism and human ingenuity.
Instead we can look forward to this:
-Car invented that runs on water! Climate change is solved! Mankind is saved!
-Oil companies and lobbyists “Idk guys this car battery seems a little rushed, might be unsafe. We should all continue to use fossil fuels instead.”
-Republican voters “You don’t even know what’s in those batteries, it might actually be worse than all of us going extinct. We just don’t know 🤷♀️”
