CNN anchor Don Lemon cannot accept peoples’ right to choose whether or not they receive the coronavirus vaccine and on his Friday night show, he had a message for adults holding out on receiving “the jab”.
In a segment with faux-Republicans Mark McKinnon and Ana Navarro where they all posited that Americans’ resistance to getting the vaccine was surely a result of politicization, Lemon decided to tell viewers how he really feels about unvaccinated Americans.
“Don’t say bad things about people who don’t get the vaccine because then they’ll feel like you’re attacking them or whatever,” Lemon said, exasperated, “but how much more — you got to call it what it is.”
Lemon then launched into a tirade on vaccine resistance.
“If behavior is idiotic and nonsensical, I think that you need to tell people that their behavior is idiotic and nonsensical. It doesn’t mean that they are idiots. It’s just that their behavior on this particular point that is not making sense,” he declared.

“So, I don’t understand what is taking people so long and how many people have to die for adults, for adults and why are adults believing people on the internet instead of science and experts? Why are they believing Donald Trump who has — who lies more than he tells the truth on any given day of the week?” Lemon demanded.
While the vaccine remains the safest option for most Americans to prevent catching or spreading the virus, Lemon has conveniently forgotten about the scandal surrounding the doctors and scientists who told Americans to “trust the science”.
The infamous doctor who shamelessly capitalized on the coronavirus pandemic, Dr. Anthony Fauci has unfortunately given many people a reason not to trust the science.
First Americans were advised to wear no masks, then Americans were advised to wear one everywhere, and at one point people were even told to double up and wear TWO masks.
Then, the media and liberal lawmakers dragged then-President Trump for suggesting the virus has somehow escaped a lab in Wuhan, China. When President Biden suggested this same theory one year later, it was universally accepted as plausible by doctors, scientists, and the media.
Fauci allegedly funded the gain of function research for the Wuhan lab and the coronavirus, now, however, he conveniently denies that.
Americans were told if they received the vaccine, life could go back to normal and they would no longer need to take precautions like wearing a mask.
Unfortunately, this does not appear to be the case as some areas of the country reinstituted mask mandates, even for vaccinated people amid the spread of the Delta variant.
The most recent data shows that in the United States, 68.7 percent of the adult population has received at least one dose of the vaccine while 59.8 percent are fully vaccinated, according to the CDC.
Many people on Twitter who dissent with Lemon pointed to a lack of trust for their resistance to the vaccine and the information, or lack thereof, from experts touting its efficacy:
Maybe if they provide healthcare to people and stop trying to repeal Obamacare…maybe people would go along with the vaccine. There is no trust. Just saying. @donlemon @cnn @MSNBC

You are welcome, Don Lemón. Please really do inform yourself better. There’s a lot of good scientific information out there, if that’s your thing. For example, check out what the original inventor of mRNA vaccines has to say. Oops! He’s censored so you’re not allowed to know!

Remember the time #PresidentTrump said “if you get the vaccine you won’t get #Covid” and the #Fakenews ripped him apart.
Oh wait… that was #JoeBiden and #Fakenews @CNN @donlemon agreed with him

I’m not anti vaccine. I’m anti experimental, unproven material injected into my body when god gave me an immune system that works to fight off these things. Why don’t they ever talk about prevention and being healthy?

It’s a possibility sure. Just look what the CEO of Moderna has said about them. Plus, mRNA has never been used in vaccines, and in this case the people getting it are the trial. Also they hide medicines that are proven to work? Why a vaccine at all for a virus where 99% survive?

Do you have any idea why during this dangerous pandemic we have open borders, and why they are flying illegal aliens all over the country unvaccinated? Seems the opposite of what one would do during a dangerous pandemic where they are trying to mandate vaccines.
