Not a sheep, just taking their medication

Today, I found out that my mom was one those people who willingly takes random doses of livestock dewormer to "fight Covid" instead of getting vaccinated, when she called me from the hospital after poisoning herself with it. FML

Today, my mother called me from the other side of the world to tell me she's got Covid. She got it from a friend, who later told her that they had attended anti-mask rallies. She's only been visiting her friend because she needs internet to keep working and can't get it where she is. FML

Today, I'm at my mother-in-law's funeral, who died of Covid-19. Months before catching the virus, she would claim that, "the entire Covid thang is bullshit" and "people are just behaving like f****ts over a simple flu." FML

Today, I found out that my mother organized someone to feed my pets because I would be out of town overnight, even though I told her that I would be back in the morning and they would be fine. They overfed my dogs, with one of them eating over 10% of her weight, and now she may have bloat, which is often fatal. FML

Today, my mother-in-law decided my husband has COVID-19, read some debunked articles about how ibuprofen makes the symptoms worse, and scolded me for giving him ibuprofen for his muscle pain. I'm an actual medical doctor. FML

Today, my mother is acting pissy because I poured my drink out on our front lawn. Apparently, this was, "ridiculous and embarrassing." Meanwhile, COVID is surging and it looks like I'll be quarantining with her. Kill me. FML

Today, I was harrassed, called a bad mom, and had death wished upon me for getting the Covid vaccine. Apparently, I don't deserve to live because I don't want to die from the virus. FML

I pay a lot to my vet to get ivermectin for my dog -- the vaccine was free. These people are even more stupid than we thought!

Yeah, because the vaccines are pushed by Big Pharma! While Ivermectin is made by fairies and unicorns!

the vaccine isn't free, how could the companies make billions if it was free, tax dollars are paying them.

There's no out-of-pocket cost to those who receive the vaccine. It is free to them.

I never understood the "they're making billions from the vaccine" argument. If they REALLY wanted to make billions, they'd create a long-term "cure" for chronic Covid, like, something people would have to take for a very long time. THAT would rake the cash in. Antivaxxers aren't known for thinking things through.

In case there was any doubt before - Mom is a fool at best, an idiot at worst. It’s really ironic that some people who think they are “free thinkers” are really the biggest fools of all ignoring actual medical advice and sheepish following the guidance of quacks.

i read this, see the sanitizer get eaten and it really does enforce the sentiment that the average person is too stupid to make decisions for themselves. Yet, off they go to vote with everyone else.
