Vilifying vaccines (despite all evidence to the contrary) is a calculated move for MAGA.
Because one of the quickest ways to undermine political solidarity among women is to pit them against each other in a fight over who's the "better mom."

Hey @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, you talk a good game about fighting back against MAGA, so why are you teaming up with MAGA folks to require intrusive, privacy destroying surveillance that can and will be abused by those you keep warning us about?
The GUARD Act may look like a child-safety bill, but in practice it’s an age-gating mandate that could impose a mass censorship and surveillance regime on nearly every public-facing AI chatbot. Tell Congress to oppose the GUARD Act today. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...
A Surveillance Mandate Disguised As Child Safety: Why the GUARD Act
A new bill sponsored by Sen. Hawley (D-MO), Sen. Blumenthal (D-CT), Sen. Britt (R-AL), Sen. Warner (D-VA), and Sen. Murphy (D-CT) would require AI chatbots to verify all users’ ages, prohibit minors
