This is literally the GOP strategy. They're anti-science, anti-intellectual, anti-education, and constantly push a message of fear and persecution. We're seeing the logical conclusion of that policy. The fact their anti-healthcare and proven wrong economic policies are also bad for people's health and financial stability is just the icing on top.
What's GOP, if I may ask?
Forgive my jadedness, I just get the feeling that maybe you're automatically assuming we're all in the USA and thus this GOP is a thing that we've heard of, and that this situation (which of course affects us all across the western world) is somehow caused by GOP, suggesting that the USA are somehow in charge of us all, and that they have much deeper control and influence in our nations than they actually do.
I know, that's a pretty cynical assumption, I'm jaded, and shouldn't just assume you're talking about the USA. Maybe GOP is a German thing, or Canadian, or Irish?
It’s an acronym for some reason for the Republican Party, don’t ask me what it means
Grand Ole Party, an old moniker, but I'm unsure of its origin.
