My wife and I are having early dinner this afternoon (4pm) with my uber liberal niece and her wimpy husband. They are vaxxed and boosted to the max, and having health issues attendant with that choice. We meet with them in the interest of family unity... trying to keep the family together despite our political and cultural differences. I'm the strange Uncle who has odd beliefs about life and the world, doncha know? Well traveled, well read, articulate, and can speak on many subjects... I think she's drawn into my presence for reasons she can't quite define, but still, I'm the weird Uncle of the family. Hehehe...
I remember a couple of years back when we met them and other family members for dinner, the niece asked me and also my nurse sister, why we weren't getting the vaxx? My sister answered with facts and what was known at the time; but when my niece asked me, I knew it was futile and that she was asking for the wrong reasons...trying to see where we were "misinformed."
I simply said, "The answer to that is so convoluted, I can't explain it to you in this setting. If you have read "The Great Barrington Declaration" (she had not, didn't even know what it was), or read anything by Dr. Robert Malone or Dr. Peter McCullough (again she had no idea who these guys were), then I might be able to discuss it with you intelligently. But I can't so it will just have to be one of those weird Uncle issues."
And that's where we left it... agree to disagree. God help her, she's STILL stuck in that tired old "follow the science" paradigm and I think it's going to kill her.
Ditto. I send emails to my niece, nephew, brother, mom...red pills...mom is the the only one who responds.
Iβm trying to plant some seeds so when niece and nephew do grow up, marry and have kids they remember weird old uncle said something about βvaccineβ poison, etc...and make good decisions.

As Dennis Prager has said for years, "The left does not follow science, they follow their preferred scientists."
