Can you refute the claims about who is receiving (and not receiving) the vaccine, or do you just hate anything right of CNN?
Zerohedge is not some kind of a pro Trump mouth piece, and many people who typically read that blog are quite anti Trump. I don't often see articles written about Trump there.
"Many people".
That's the excuse Trump always uses.
If you're not smart enough to figure out why that might matter, than I would be happy to break it down for you. I know numbers are a tricky thing for some...
Haha. So many liberals don't understand that there are large amounts of black democrats living in "Red" states.
maybe they think everyone who lives in Mississippi is a republican that loves Trump?
Most of the minorities in my area Hispanic, and blacks wore masks even before it was required by the state. The ones I saw not wearing masks arguing with security were the typical Trump supporter. Likely minorities are not antivaxxers.
There are different reasons why the black population is wary of vaccines than Trumpsters. A long history of being experimented on is part of it.
I actually think most liberals do know this.
And it is still not incorrect that Trumpsters have a low vaccination rate compared to everyone else.
We're having a problem here in MO. Red Greene County MO is one of our biggest problems. The population of that county is only 3% black. 91% white. The vaccination rate is under 40%. The surrounding counties are even whiter and their vax rates are even lower.

But sure, it's just the black people.
Nobody said "it's just black people". The point of the thread is actually it's not just "Trump" people, and the divisive lame stream media is lying and turning people against one another based on politics, as usual.

So you have no counterargument other than you have a problem with Zerohedge, but you can't refute their claims with facts. Ok. Point taken. Carry on with your day.
Right after you refute vaccination states are higher in blue states than in red states.
And the cited article was quite short on statistics but I did notice their little blurb that they give news you won't find anywhere else. WHY is that? The truth should be available from multiple sources.

Clearly, our leftist friends on this forum are woefully misguided when they blame "Trumpers" and vaccinated Trump for people not getting the vaccine. It is actually young, poor, less educated African Americans who are most likely to avoid getting vaccinated. So the reality is, when lefties insult people for exercising their right to refuse the vaccine, they are insulting a whole lot of African Americans.
If anyone thinks they can insult their way towards higher rates of vaccination for the general public, they are sadly mistaken. They are also misguided when they try to make it a political thing. People are not choosing to avoid getting vaccinated because of Trump. After all, he was among the first to receive the vaccine, along with Biden. This is a socioeconomic issue, not a political matter.
Blacks have some reason to not trust the government.. they experimented with blacks who had syphilis and were never treated. They remember .

I am not here to blame African Americans for exercising their right to turn down the vaccine. Nor am I advocating using the government or any other measures to force the vaccine on the unwilling. Just pointing out how ridiculous the lame stream media's talking points are. Of course, the left latches onto these talking points religiously, so it's no surprise that they refuse to accept reality for what it is, instead of what they are told it is by their lame stream media masters.

Blame Biden. He fell short of his expected target %. His people will say, "but but but, he came close". Close is no cigar.
