You're absolutely right. FreeRepublic should a a mouthpiece for the government and never EVER go against the government narrative.
Who do we think we are, anyway? Let's get it together and get in line with CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times, Facebook, Twitter, and all the other respectable media organizations.
Enough of this free thinking junk. I'm fed up.

Nothing wrong with posting viewpoints contrary to the official narrative.
But let’s try to do some basic research before posting contrary viewpoints from “doctors” who believe they lived in the mythical city of Atlantis in a past life, or that Bill Gates (seriously?) is “going to mine cryptocurrency using the ‘chips’ in the vaccines”.
Unfortunately, I do know people that believe some of that. And they’ve chosen to not get the vaccine because they believe it. I personally think that’s tragic, because it’s obviously nonsense. If they choose to not get the vaccine because it didn’t have long enough in testing, we don’t know the long term effects, etc, that’s fine. But to not take it because it “allows Bill Gates to mine cryptocurrency” or some other such whacky nonsense, that’s a tragedy.
