Nah, they don't see it as sacrificing their young. They think that's all fake news. If Rosie Barton, Joe Scarborough and the cast of The View tell them it's safe to jab their kids, it's safe to jab their kids. End of story.
So the issue here isn't an indifference to the wellbeing of children, it's the blind trust people have in the television. Boomers especially. They all still get 100% of their info from the television. They have no idea that the MSM have all suddenly turned into professional liars over the last half decade. You'd have to read the internet to know that.
Yeah, because the Internet is so much better. That's how you end up with Qanon supporters.
Ok, I'll amend that to "You'd have to read the internet and apply critical thinking."
You're definitely not going to be informed if you just watch CNN, MSNBC and CBC.
To find the truth you pretty much have to go to the internet. The challenge is separating the wheat from the chaff.
The vast majority of people aren't up to that challenge.
This is true, but it’s also not the point. It doesn’t change the fact that the media are professional liars and you have to find the truth elsewhere.
Sad but true. Great example today:

Tim Pool is one of the worst offenders when it comes critical thinking (or lack thereof).
What possible reason could the lizard people (or whoever) have to use special effects in the courtroom during the Rittenhouse trial? What's gained by spoofing that section of the aisle behind the prosecutor?
These are kinds of questions crazy people can't or won't ask themselves when looking at something peculiar. It's always straight to the most fantastic and implausible conclusion. And then if anyone tries to talk sense into them, they call that person a "sheep".
