I saw Ariel Pink on Fox News Tucker Carlson Tonight (best show on TV) and then quickly bought one of his tunes so I would remember his name. I’m going to listen to everything of his I can find and pay for downloads of every song I like. This guy has been cancelled. NOT FAIR!!— American Woman ❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸 (@TrishFitzpatrik) January 15, 2021

Pink also uses the podcast to discuss arguing with his doctor father about COVID, maintaining that the vaccine “doesn’t actually stop you from getting the virus… It just stops the symptoms.”
I assume his doctor father said "No it doesn't" otherwise its not an argument.

Amazing.
Pink's logical endpoint, arriving at full MAGA, seemed inevitable given the dumb shit and blatant misogyny of the last decade or so. Am always a bit disappointed at failed misanthropes like Pink. I mean: we get it, you're a terrible person, but any trve misanthrope would never end up being a full-fledged member of #teamtrump. It's, quite frankly, embarrassing.

It looks like the roles of Tucker Carlson and Ariel Pink are being played by the same actor

um...maybe I misunderstand how the vaccine works but...isn't this true? iiuc it prevents the disease, COVID-19, but not coronavirus infection. The vaccinated can still carry and transmit the virus...no?

Maybe, maybe not. See, for instance:

I guess that depends on the context, pretty obv. important and worth arguing if someone in your family is getting the vaccine and doesn't understand how it works. But as per pom^ this is a dumb point to beef w/
(I didn't listen to this clip because why)
― John Wesley Glasscock (Hadrian VIII), Friday, 15 January 2021 15:00 (three years ago) link
I mean if there is any worthy "well, actually" this would seem to be a valid one
doesn't that imply that a vaccine wouldn't actually drop the transmission rates then?
― frogbs, Friday, 15 January 2021 15:04 (three years ago) link
his intent is to talk shit about vaccines and create doubt about vaccines not inform people with nuanced medical information
― Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 15 January 2021 15:05 (three years ago) link
xp that is a concern abt it, yeah, it's why we need x% to get vaccinated

so the idea is that you get infected but don't get the disease, therefore making it so you don't pass it elsewhere?
― frogbs, Friday, 15 January 2021 15:06 (three years ago) link
this may be better on a covid thread

(no, idea is making it so you don't get sick or die form it)

obv important to know how the vax works, but for some strange reason something is preventing me from giving Ariel Pink the benefit of the doubt that his motives for this argument are purely informational vs enjoying having a gotcha to spring on people

I know this isn't the thread but I don't want to leave it hanging so let me just say -- the studies assessing whether the vaccine prevents infection and transmission have not been finished yet, but there is every reason to expect the vaccine to stop or at least decrease those. What we know now is:
* the vaccines all do a really good job keeping people from getting sick;* they probably reduce infection and transmission but we are not sure about that yet

I mean, who among us is shocked that Ariel Pink takes retrograde/trollish political stands when he released a 2012 album called Ku Klux Glam. So edgy.
