      It's simply not true. The word "anything" should be replaced by "some things" but that sounds terrible. Even the most dense people won't fall for anything. And people who stand for something will still fall for some things. It sounds good how he sings it but it's not as powerful as the people who fall for it believe it is.

But hey im not right or left but the so called left had to make a vaccine political. They are insane and just agree play stupid with them, they are now regretting it. I don't understand Why conservatives just use that to win a argument by some simple trolling. Why tell these ppl screaming at you to take poison that will hurt you and you try to change their minds which they wont, Just Jiu jitsu them about how its good and Im not a political guy, dont care for either side. This is how you just deal with the left side morons with simple trolling . Conservatives do mean well mostly and are way to nice. Now they regret taking it with complications showing up. Jiu jitsu tactics. They wanna poison you because their feeble minds believe the TV, then tell them how good it is. You kinda win at the end and i remember they tried to get family members who didn't want it to lose their jobs. So fuck em for being stupid and selfish. Never got this virus but ppl who took 5 shots get it several times in a year or 2. So it don't even work.

Idk, I just want my children to be happy. Like they don't need to enter adulthood and then keep trying to impress me. I don't gaf if they work in a supermarket when they're 32, as long as they're happy that's enough for me. There's more to life than just work.
