Right and carvans of rapist murders are coming down our boarders, Joe's going to take away our guns, and the Chinese stole the election. The so called right only knows how to use fear to control it's herds. Just like with the election fraud, who needs evidence when you can stoke the fears of the NPC masses so they think "believing" something is enough to make it true.
Acknowledging that things won't get instantly better like it's just flipping a switch isn't "trying to squash hope" It's BEING REALISTIC, something a lot of people on the right don't want to be these days. Yes we have the vaccine, yes its already being administered, but that doesn't mean the virus is instantly going to vanish. It's going to take months to both produce and to get enough people vaccinated (possibly longer since the Cheeto declined getting extra doses) so you shouldn't just instantly go back to pre-pandemic activities. Expecally since winter is predicted to be the worst part of this pandemic as conditions are perfect for it's spreading and we never got the levels down low enough during the summer to prevent hospital shortages(seeings how you sometimes think experts are too accurate and other times too unreliable you'll have to decide which of the two you want them to be for this prediction) .
