MODERATORS
The US military seems to have a particular vendetta against Muslims getting vaccinated, remember when they used a polio vaccine campaign in Pakistan to collect mass genetic materials in order to try and get a genetic match for Bin Laden?
a fake polio vaccine campaign, when they could have just used a real polio vaccine. just pure sadism
Kind of islamophobia too
You're right, I fixed the warning to include
And Americans still wonder why everyone not from the "international community" hate their fucking guts.
Can we trust China which tries to hide that its vaccine contains pig gelatin, and that it distributes it in Central Asia and other Muslim countries, where many believe this ingredient is "haram"?
From left to right: "China", "halal vaccine"
China distributes vaccine which contains pig gelatin
What in the actual fuck
CIA memelords so bad they use 
.
A senior Defense Department official acknowledged the U.S. military engaged in secret propaganda to disparage China’s vaccine in the developing world
Not that this is a revelation, but it confirms the US would still sooner see millions die rather than let China have any influence (or impact western vaccine profits).
Article also makes it clear that Facebook knew about this, and that the Pentagon has recently given the same contractor half a billion to do more of this shit. All the "cyber troll" accusations are mass projection, you really can't trust anything.
I remember early in the pandemic when I was still on non-political boards' politics sections and the most left leaning person there, who I got on with quite well, kept saying he was pissed at what he called Third Worldists who wanted a nation other than the US to find a cure. It already seemed stupid to complain about people merely wishing for China or idk even SA to find a vaccine that works, but he would get really firm about it when I asked "well if it has to be somebody wouldn't it be better if it is someone who won't try to use it as a cudgel?"
In hindsight I feel very vindicated, this is the exact shit that one could predict would happen. The US no matter who made a cure, would hold it over poor countrys' heads and try to prevent usage of a vaccine if it is made by their enemies. You cannot hold the apolitical "I just hope someone, anyone, finds a vaccine" because we do not live in a world in which something so life-saving is going to be treated as property of all of humanity. It cannot be apolitical, it cannot be separated from the empire and its goals
well if it has to be somebody wouldn't it be better if it is someone who won't try to use it as a cudgel
non NATO countries when they don't have a cudgel
Their cudgel is going to be disengaging economically from the farcical de-industrialized Western rump. The winds are blowing away from the American empire. Soon we'll all be 
and no one will be
I see that the time span between "leftist conspiracy theory" and being confirmed by western media as truth is no longer 50 years
The pentagon, and holding back humanity. Name a better duo.
But I was told that all the free thinkers against the government were anti vax
Of course they targeted the russian vaccine as welll
This, like the tariffs on EVs, shows the US would rather people died than lose even a smidge of influence.
All the actual cool stuff I see from tech as a non-tech guy always comes from China.
they probably ran it here in brazil too.
