Anti-vaxxer hospitalised with Covid after saying vaccines...

... would wipe out ‘stupid people’.

That's the title of the article, which strikes me as one of the funnier examples of Karma-like justice that I've recently read.

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/covid-anti-vax-hospitalised-america-b1857838.html

Rick Wiles, a right-wing Christian talk show host and anti-vaxxer has been hospitalised with Covid-19 after saying vaccines would wipe out “stupid people”.

Less than a month ago, Mr Wiles said he would never get vaccinated. His website, TruNews, announced over the weekend that had been infected and taken to hospital where he had been given oxygen. The announcement was reported by Right Wing Watch.

TruNews has pushed conspiracy theorists considered to be racist, antisemitic, homophobic, and Islamophobic. The outlet has called President Obama a “demon from hell” multiple times. Mr Wiles has said that Mr Obama “spiritually sodomised the nation”.

The right-wing broadcaster told his audience last month that he wasn’t getting vaccinated because he believed the vaccines were being used to commit a “genocide,” to kill hundreds of millions of people.

“I am not going to be vaccinated,” Mr Wiles said. “I’m going to be one of the survivors. I’m going to survive the genocide ... The only good thing that will come out of this is a lot of stupid people will be killed off. If the vaccine wipes out a lot of stupid people, well, we’ll have a better world.”

TruNews has said that eternal damnation would await anyone mocking Mr Wiles’s affliction.

“Already, the naysayers and mockers have started with their taunts,” the website said. “Let them speak their foolish words and let them mock. It will only serve to be used to fuel their flames of torment in hell unless they repent.”

TruNews suddenly suspended its broadcast last week, announcing that it was “experiencing a sudden cluster of flu and COVID among some employees and their relatives”.

The outlet then said on Sunday that Mr Wiles had been hospitalised.

TruNews has announced that Lauren Witzke, a Republican Senate candidate in Delaware in 2020, will fill in and co-host his nightly TV programme for the next two weeks.

The Daily Beast reported that Ms Witzke has pushed conspiracy theories related to QAnon, antisemitism, Flat Earth, and 9/11.

1. Tots and Pears?

The idiot will probably say it was a hoax or he was injected with Covid by the AntifaBLM mafia run by HRC and Obama.

2. The more that I read about him, he doesn't...

... even deserve tots and pears as a hospital meal. (I know it's a play on "thoughts and prayers".)

He implored the Trump administration to shoot Democrats and journalists after the election in November too.

Combined with his years of anti-semitism, he's clearly a fascist Nazi even if he somehow doesn't know it himself.

His TruNews buffoonery was granted media passes by the Trump administration, of course.

4. He's the kinda POS that makes you hope there will be an Antichrist who persecutes him.

I’d gladly help the Son of Satan in the endeavor.

3. Since I'm already going to Hell, I might as well enjoy the ride.

5. I guarantee

if there is an afterlife as described in the bible, atheists like myself would be chosen to live in heaven before any of these yahoos. If some god picked this guy or jim bakker or joel osteen or any of those type of goobers, I would gladly choose hell over whatever the fuck whackadoodle civilization they've got up there.

6. Lol, I agree!

I'm an atheist too, but I can tolerate a lot of Christians except for fascists like him and other evangelicals. It's mostly the white evangelicals that are a problem from what I've observed, anyway.
