    No analogy will get through to them because you don’t understand the problem.

    It’s not about a lack of understanding on how vaccines work or the basic physics/biology/etc. behind it. It’s about a not unfounded mistrust of media and medicine.

    To use a medical analogy; you’re providing a vaccine after they’ve gone into sepsis and are surprised that it’s not curative.





  • the Democrats had military storming our streets and black bagging US residents en masse

    The Posse Comitatus Act is what generally prevents military from “black bagging US residents” and leaves that job to police.

    Texas was the first state to allow for the national guard to assist in immigration efforts back in 2021. Democrats did nothing to stop, delay or prevent the expansion of those powers which were further pushed and nationalized in 2025.

    The other loophole is invoking the insurrection act. While Biden did not involve it it was repeatedly threatened during the Gaza war protests, however the protests never got too riotous for the Dems to risk damaging their image and the local police were perfectly capable of documenting and black bagging people for it.

    The cases of Kahlil and Mahdawi where Trump attended to deport individuals participating in those protests was made possible by the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952. That specific bill was introduced by the Democrats, passed the Democratic majority House and Senate, Vetoed by Democratic president Truman before being overridden by the house/Senate.

    You are correct that they are “not the same”, but stating that the shield of your enemy is your friend, just because it isn’t a sword is fucking insane.
