Expect the media/Left/"experts" to continue to ramp up shaming of Republicans over vaccine

As we begin to see a dropoff in vaccine demand, especially in red states but also elsewhere, we are starting to see talk of "reaching out across the aisle" to get republican voters to get over their hesitancy to get the China-flu shot. I occasionally check the Twitter accounts of people like Peter Hotez, a very pessimistic but widely followed epidemiologist out of Houston. This has been the pivot that they are going toward.
I think the initial push will be nice at first, and to "inform" rather than be insulting, even if there is a patronizing/condescending tone around a lot of this. But as we get to the summer and most states are at 50%+ vaccinated, but not enough for Fauci's magic 75%, I would expect the talk to change to "you are creating an environment for muh mutations," coupled with outright hysteria from the Left directed at Trump voters. So this should be fun to watch.
Disclaimer: I got rd 1 of the Pfizer microchip, despite already getting the Kung Flu in the winter, for vacation purposes later this summer. I also disagree with the concerns that people have. But I don't think anyone should be forced to get it, or be shamed over it or anything like that.

i don't doubt it.
i don't have vaccine hesitancy. frick i travel for work across the world, 2-3 times a year. I'm faar more vaccinated than the average American.
but i do have hesitancy in being told i have to get the COVID-19 vaccine. When in all likelihood: COVID itself, by the statistics is unlikely to be anything more than a cold for me. 35. no pre-conditions. healthy and extremely active. have been pumping Zinc, Vitamin C, and and Vitamin D since this started. I almost exclusively WFH now and I might go out in public 2-3 times a week at most.

if they're really worried about the vaccine, they'll go door-to-door until 75% are vaccinated

Very similar to you except for WFH part. COVID did knock me on my arse for a couple days but I'm not a fatass and take care of myself so I didn't wind up with any material symptoms. I wouldn't have gotten the shot (too lazy) if I wasn't trying to do a vacation to a very strict state later this year in the hopes that they alleviate restrictions for proles that got their vaccine.

Yes. The more urging you hear from Biden, and the more spots you hear from idiots like Lebron and other celebrities, the more people are going to resist. I'm thinking the only way they make any headway is to convince certain evangelical church pastors like they did with black churches, which seemed to be successful. But I doubt you see as much success in that.

Wait till the green new deal shake down starts.
Republicans will not take it. They will be on every news outlet that they have access to defending the American taxpayer from this bogus climate change crisis.
Just like they did for election fraud.

I'm a life long Republican; I voted for Trump twice, and I donated bigly. The shame is deserved. Almost all of these idiots are going to vaccinated eventually, anyway.

I don’t care still not getting one. If your vaccinated good on you I won’t be

You mean the vaccine that the sitting Vice Prostitute said she wouldn’t get if if were approved by Trump Admin? That vaccine?
The politicizing of this shite makes any information I read about it unworthy of belief. Regarding dangers or safety.

That, and complete disregard for actual science throughout this whole debacle. Inflated numbers of "cases", a test that amplifies well beyond the threshold for reliable results, incentive payments to classify death by covid, organized fearmongering, fauchi "guidance" changing on a day to day basis, no mention of those infected and recovered in their "herd immunity" numbers, and a vaccine that does not vaccinate. I will consider being vaccinated in a year, or two, or three - if we don't see negative effects from the vaccines by then.

I think they made and are currently making a huge mistake with their communication.
From the beginning, if you got vaccinated, you go back to normal life. I believe more people would be getting it. Why would I get a vaccine, I dont need if my behaviors have to stay the same?
Now, if I can go to work, the store etc and not need a mask...I would think about it. But their messaging of get the shot and you "may" be able hang with FAMILY on 4th of July is a big loser.

"Why aren't you getting the vaccine?"
"Because it pisses you off so much that I say no."
"REEEEEEEEEE!"

That’s the point Rand makes in every exchange he has with Fauxi.

Cause this isn’t a Vaccine, by its own definition. It doesn’t prevent anyone from getting the disease, and people with both doses are dying.....Fauci knows this....

I'll not go to any state or country that requires a vaccine to this virus. Maybe 5 or 10 years down the road and this is a tested and proved vaccine. Thankfully, we have a choice.

You know, I'm not a Republican, but the media and uniparty and Hollywood and the music industry and big corporations and big tech and social media have all been trying, and utterly failing, to shame me for as long as I can remember.
So let them keep lumping me in that basket of deplorables and wasting their time trying to gaslight, shame and demean me.
Frankly, it amuses me. My resolve grows stronger every time they say something bad about people who think how I think and say what I say. It proves to me that our kind is greatly feared by the most "powerful" people in the world.

Before or after they acknowledge that the former administration is responsible for the vaccine?

Try to shame....
If you think resistance to the .gov and media 'urging' is strong now...just wait u til they try to compel... you haven't seen nothing yet.
