I bet this is also somehow the immigrants' fault. /s

I have a coworker who hates undocumented immigrants because she thinks they're all unvaccinated and spreaders of disease. This would be an unremarkable bit of stupidity except that she's also anti-vax.

How does that even go together? Being anti-vax and at the same time condemning people for not being vaccinated?

That's pretty much why I mentioned it. It's absolutely batshit crazy.

Fringe fascists in Europe have already been co-opting the green message for the last 10 years.

Because that's what fascism does: take a popular idea and worm it's way inside.

Nah, there are 2 ways of thinking about this topic, which the right wing idiots in Germany use (at the same time): 1. there's no climate change, because look: cold weather right now and 2. This change occurs naturally, nothing to do with us but planets and stuff.

I don't think even they believe that. They're just scared and don't want to share their long plundered wealth
