wptv.comI was mildly disappointed by the number of right-wing turds who did not succumb to covid last year and early this year, but I have to say, karma saved its wickedest moves for the latter half of 2021.

Delta does not fuck around.

Is this that "fuck around and find out" thing I keep hearing about?

More, delta fucks around and they find out.

Just wait till the echo and foxtrot versions come out!

Dick Farrel: No need for vaccine.
Virus: No need for Dick Farrel.

Is it weird that this is all i can get off to now?

As a liberal, I feel owned ^(tm)

Same. They’re really sticking it to us lately.
18
Yep. If this is sticking it to us, I'm a happy pincushion.
13
That's a real shame...
So what's for dinner?
35
I guess you're not a leopard if you have to ask this question.
20
I'll leave that to the leopards, I find conservative faces are much too salty and stringy and are very bitter, not to my liking...

"For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind..."
Hosea 8:7

I had to memorize the books of the Bible (King James) as a child, which is why your comment is irrationally bothering me. I remember just enough to be fairly sure there wasn't a Hosea in my list...fairly certain. Now I need to know. Damn it.
2
If you had to memorize the books of the Bible and don't remember the Book of Hosea, something's wrong with your Bible. As a child, we sang the books of the Bible to remember them. ...Lamentations, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Amos...
10
It was probably in there, memory was just not there
2
Hosea was one of the prophets. Look in your OT. Also, I was raised on the KJV myself.

I wonder what LAMF was about before Brexit and Covid.
I post every month??
24
Before covid and Brexit it was about mostly right wing voters getting what they voted for good and hard, much to their dismay.
For example woman votes for Trump to be hard on those 'illegals', then is beside herself with anguish as her undocumented husband gets deported.
42
Splendid!

A bunch of starving leopards. But now, they feast!

Tonight, we dine in schadenfreude!
20
Leopards are gonna have to go on a diet when this is all over.
17
They’re gonna be like Garfield when this all dies down.
So full of face……

Burp!

Popular ones were trump voters that were married to undocumented immigrants being shocked that their spouses were deported.
10
Or Trump voters losing their employees when they were deported!

Truthfully that never got old.

"Was he right all the time? No... But he was "RIGHT" all the time, especially if you asked him. Did he stay out of trouble? Not always."
??? Even when wrong and DEAD, he was "right?"
My brain hurts. Would these people win gold in mental gymnastics?
22
Right wing?

Only with the right routine.

He looks fit as a fiddle. Fake news!

Another one bites the dust
Another ones gone
And another ones gone
Another one bites the
COVID’s gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust!

I went to the funeral of a Wiccan and this was played at the end. It lightened the mood quite a bit. Pre-Covid days.

He was a kind-hearted person with a load of passion, and his memory will stand the test of time.
No, kind hearted people care as much for the strangers they don't know as the friends they do. They get vaccinated and wear a mask so they protect the mother of a child they've never met.
As far as the test of time goes, he'll always be remembered as a selfish idiot who didn't have to die, but chose death over admitting wrong.
19
I’m beginning to think ‘being a right-wing radio host’ is the top risk factor for COVID.
15
GOOD
FUCK THESE PEOPLE
14
I really need to get my PCR results back before i can start enjoying this sub and talking shit again. Of course i am vaxxed up. The lab needs to hurry the fack up.
14
I’ve run out of fucks to give about the anti vax people dying.
13
Look on the bright side--one less GOP voter.

Doesn't anyone feel a little bad for these people? I hope this link will help his friends and family find some closure.
10
I've stopped feeling bad for those who are broadcasting lies, hate, and bullshit. I have no more empathy, sympathy, or blessings to give those who have harassed and threatened people who are working for the common good to try to help end the pandemic, the suffering, the deaths, the economic pain. I will offer nothing for those who created or amplified this hoax/flu/anti-vax mess.
Their families, ok, unless they are also amplifiers publicly continuing to refuse to admit Covid isn't a hoax and should be taken seriously. Kids left behind, you bet, and well, I suspect they will be better off and now have a better chance at growing into a decent, civilized human being.

We should make hospitals start turning away these people. if they CHOSE not to get vaccinated and follow COVID guidelines then they can enjoy the consequences. They made their Beds so we should force them to lie in them. Plus it’ll free up perfectly good hospital beds for people who actually need them.
8
Does that logic apply to smokers with cancer or high school kids with preventable STDs as well?
I don’t think anyone should be denied medical care. It’s weird to me that that’s a controversial stance here.
-3†
Smokers and kids with STDs don’t cause fucking hospital carrying capacity issues that risk a healthcare system collapse. Huge difference.
5
Covid deniers and smokers should definitely have to pay their own medical bills and let the insurance companies have the right to refuse payment.

Wow. I clicked on this thinking “wow, Phil Valentine did end up dying then huh?” to find out it was a DIFFERENT anti vax broadcaster.
Most of the death cultist propagandists in the top, that is GQP politicians, Fox anchors and such like has long since been vaccinated. They know full well not to imbibe in what they serve.
But apparently there is still a large group of propagandists who are practicing what they are preaching, and are dying right alongside their congregation for their extremely fucked up beliefs.
"Don't get high on your own supply."
True. Even Jim Jones didn't drink his own Flavor-Aid.
To be fair, he shot himself in the head, which was unfair. Pussy couldn't even drink himself to death.
Nope, Phil is still a zombie on life support. I don't know why his family is still trying to revive him. His lungs and his kidneys are totally shot, and his heartbeat has been dangerously irregular for days now. He's not going to survive even if they can get is heart to beat normally again--not without double lung and double kidney transplants. Just pull the plug and let him go.
I guess they really want to rack up some medical debt.
For allegedly believing in a happy fun Heaven where all the good Christians get to high-five Jesus for eternity, they sure do seem terrified and in deep, deep denial about actual death.
Well, and this true even just for normal Christianity not 'fascism-theocrat-racist we're totally going to hell' version.
You haven't seen fear of death until you've seen a sunday catholic church full of old women discussing who died this month, or watched those same women blow 5 months of their retirement on voyages to 'centers of faith with 'miracles'' like Fatima, Rome or that french one i'm always forgetting so they can see a statue of 'Mary, mother of God' with a crown filled with rubies in wildly uncomfortable crowds with cancer in one every 5 persons.
Being old doesn't make you less fearful, it makes you more depressed, which to the unobservant might seem the same.
It makes sense the people who fear death most would cling to the idea of an afterlife.
Very perceptive. Absolutely true (I am in southern Africa). So many people here travel to 'miracle healers' who just rake in the cash.
They'll never pay it. Expensive waste of medical resources on someone who brought it on himself

Facebook page of Pamela Furr, a colleague of Phil's. She last updated on Phil's condition yesterday morning. She has mentioned him today, indicating he's still alive, but only in the context of "I'm still praying for Phil."
She also appears to be trying to disseminate actual information about how vaccines work, which the Tennessee right-wing crowd is not taking too kindly to...
"...Tennessee right-wing crowd is not taking too kindly to..."
Shocker.
Darwin for the win.
Like they would listen to a woman

Aren't, they just supposed to wave their hands around and say something like, "humita hum hum, god will save you"?
source on this status update?
Facebook page of Pamela Furr, who's apparently a fellow broadcaster in Tennessee and friend of the Valentine family.
ETA: Here's the text of her post from yesterday morning. "An update in Phil’s condition this morning. He remains on life support and is considered very critical. His AFib is still not stable, and they’re hoping a new medicine administered today will help. #PrayforPhil"
Afib = afibrillation = irregular heartbeat.
Wonder if we'll see a Twitter account from his (heart) ventricles? His left kidney seems pretty pissed with the body it's trapped in.
tx!
They're trying to keep him going because it's going to be a meme shitstorm no matter what happens, but decidedly worse if he dies.
If you look at Phil Valentine's Twitter, his dipshit brother is still posting anti-vax memes
Tennessee Taliban will never change their stripes.
Guess insanity runs in their family😜
He looks like Ron Jeremy and Preston Lacy fucked.
I clicked this, read your comment before I could open the link, then was disappointed that there wasn't justice for Phil Valentine's victims.
Welp…… “just wait two weeks” lol
Ha! Same.
It's kinda terrible but a 2-for-1, I'll take it.
Same! I don't listen to right wing radio, but I wonder if the rest of them are at least starting to back off with all this anti-vaccine rhetoric.
I’m going to place an educated guess that they are not.
I was really looking forward to seeing that it was Phil. This is good too though.
Too bad Dick was being a dick.... Too bad
