McSweeney's Wendy Molyneux tackles the logic behind COVID-19 vaccination hesitancy

Last week I went to see a bunch of my relatives. They are all unvaccinated for the most unimaginably stupid reasons. They literally spend their days worshipping angels (my aunt makes money by organizing gatherings where angels are painted in watercolor). Their whole apartment is stuffed with an almagam of esoteric trinkets. I went into an hour long discussion with my uncle over his opinion that there are „massive gaps in evolution that science can’t explain“. I actually ended up giving him in my layman’s knowledge a talk on the whole theory of evolution and then asked him to point out the gaps so I could explain them to him. He said that was too intricate a subject for such a short discussion and fled the kitchen to never return.

In short, shit is hopeless, people are just too fucking stupid.
