We will never understand why the vaccines got so political.

We get why the masks were political. Trump refused to wear them because he believed they make him look weak. Instead of thinking like an American president, one that is responsible and wants to set a good example, Trump chose to imitate a 2oth Century European dictator, a Mussolini, a Stalin, a Hitler, someone who thought that a leader needed to project “strength” above everything else. So we understand “how” masks got politicized.

We do not understand how vaccines got politicized. After all, Trump is still bragging about getting the vaccines done in months when it would have taken anyone else 5-10 years (Trump was just that good a scientist). But some MAGAs had no interest in the vaccine the moment that Biden said it was his goal and his promise that we could have a normal 4th of July if everyone got vaccinated.

Apparently, that’s all it took. The fact that Biden wanted people to get vaccinated was enough for some to go anti-vax (that is our guess). Candace Owens, one of those pretty women on the Right that are paid to be pretty while saying the ugliest of things, was an anti-vaxxer and now she’s paying the price. Just like Candace believed it was a person’s private right to not be vaccinated and was anti-vax herself, the private owner of a clinic in Aspen decided that she didn’t need to give Candace a COVID test.

Candace Owens tried to get a COVID test in Aspen, CO, but was denied service (from a private facility) and received this email, and it’s the best thing I’ve ever read. pic.twitter.com/aSOKBXOvsQ

That kicks so much ass we suspect that Candace is still too sore to sit down.

This is Suzanna Lee. She owns Aspen Covid. She’s a hero. We should all thank her for putting the fool Candace Owens in her place. #CandaceOwensProfitsFromHate pic.twitter.com/ZLa3n6s1e3

Candace Owens says Suzanna from the company that refused her a Covid test is racist.

She also called the CEO of American Booksellers Assoc racist for criticizing her book.

I wish people would stop using this asinine excuse. Testing only stops the spread when the person getting tested is responsible. If Candace Owens is positive but still walks around unmasked and does not quarantine herself, testing is pointless. Try harder. https://t.co/JFmSJ1IVg2

Candace Owens: No one in my family will be touching the COVID vaccine. COVID’s not fatal.

Also Candace Owens: Racism doesn’t exist here. It’s over because I’ve never been a slave.

Also Candace Owens: I was refused a COVID test because racism.

Suzanna Lee: Karma Bitch. pic.twitter.com/XeGPDF8Hdl

And soooo many more. It is awesome. Remember, the idea is to stop the spread. But if Candace had tested positive, but then walked around without a mask or didn’t follow directions, it would not have done any good in “stopping the spread.” Besides, she had other options.
