See Argentina getting Sputnik vaccines without warranting/embargoing/idkwhatstheword glaciers and military bases as Pfizer demanded.
FUCK THEM GIVE ME MORE SLAVIC INJECTIONS
All of these stories (and their Chinese counterparts) in light of US's unwillingness to even tell people how to make their version make it harder to not have at least a pang of conspiracy theorizing.
"Hey, we worked hard to bring about this Malthusian nightmare! Stop helping people we haven't fully exploited yet or so help me..." :biden-harbinger:
Just been reading about this. My takeaway, and what the fuck do I know, was that any concerns (if they are even legit) about the Russian vaccine relate to the production process, not the work done by the institute that created the vaccine or the science behind it. The fact that the Russians are willing to license the vaccine freely, I think, to allow other countries to manufacture it, backs up this interpetation. Someone with seemingly credible credentials said this.
Yeah, there are still companies in Brazil that will be producing Sputnik locally. It's only the imported batches that are being called into question.
liberals love international organizations so you can defend against this by telling them Russia is part of the WHO and they signed off on it, make them accept the WHO's legitimatcy or go mask off on the evil russkies.
Is Russia's Covid vaccine anything more than a political weapon?
It could also possibly be, and hear me out on this one, a weapon against Covid.
American media is just advertising with less transparency.
Same shit going on here with Sinopharm, all the lib media is overblowing bureaucratic problems with it so we have hundreds of thousands of doses going for no one but as soon as a few thousand Pfizers appear it's like Black Friday, ridiculous.
It's working perfectly. Sadly the production has been too slow to meet the demand.
"Why are there so many anti-vaxxers?" I say as I demonize any vaccine made in Russia
scientists back Brazil
Nazi industrialist demons mad :epstein:
It is but there's absolutely nothing wrong with their vaccine.
weird how a site with so many LGBT people are so weirdly fond of the most Right wing power in europe by far.
those “western traditionalist” chuds who want to murder you? yeah, they fuckin jerk off to Putinist Russia, it’s their dream country
Who here is "weirdly fond" of Russia? Pointing out how obvious American propaganda is stupid isn't defending Russia.
people basically never talk about how fucked up they are on here, meanwhile if someone in europe farts in public it’s a massive thread
same with india, it’s a fascist nightmare state but nobody ever wants to bring that up for some reason
Most of us are Westerners which is why we post mostly about Western issues
there are many, many posts about and from the global south. The megathread is often about events outside of the west and Latin America gets a lot of coverage. There were plenty of posts about the Indian farmer strikes when they began, and plenty of posts recently about covid in India. The first post on my feed rn is about how much living conditions have deteriorated under the Russian Federation compared to the Soviet Union
guess we come on at different tunes man idk what to tell ya
You might just not be on here enough? And like doubepepperoni said, most of us don't live in those places or know enough about them currently to really discuss them.
In all honesty I can't say I ever saw that many Putin stans on the old sub (or on here)
all this anti-science propaganda just because it's russia/china is really dangerous. it just feeds the anti-science conspiracy crowd and makes them an increasingly powerful force that will have political ramifications.
Ya soembody said smthing to the amount of “Sputnik bad... but maybe thats american propaganda”
Got’em :3
In my country the media generally ignores the existence of non-western vaccines and if they have to mention them they do it like they are risky sub-standard stuff for poor countries that cannot afford the high quality western stuff.
Meanwhile the authorities have scrapped the Astra-Zeneca vaccine completely due to fear of blood clots and usage of the J&J vaccine is on hold due to similar concerns. Supplies of Pfizer vaccines are scarce so the entire vaccination programme has been set back for months.
