Robbins, an Academy Award-winning actor, explained his journey from strict compliance with government edicts early in the pandemic to one of doubt about the inerrancy of so-called health experts and the official narrative constructed around COVID-19, vaccination, lockdowns, and masking.
Despite having initially "bought into it" and "adhering to the requests" made of him, Robbins explained that his real-life encounters were ultimately at odds with what he had otherwise been told about the pandemic, anti-lockdown protesters, and the unvaccinated. This generated a sense of cognitive dissonance, prompting him to doubt the official narrative.

Robbins admitted, "At first, if you were a Democrat, when Trump was president, well, you weren't going to take that vaccine because it was Trump's vaccine, and then that seemed to somehow change. It was kind of Orwellian. It was like we are no longer at war with East Asia."
However, after the political winds shifted and Democrats assumed power during the pandemic, Robbins noted, "If you didn't take the vaccine, you were a Republican."
The end result, according to Robbins: "We turned into tribal, angry, vengeful people."

Actually she doesn’t look bad for 77. I’m just waiting to see if she changes her tune like her ex did. Like most libtards she’s looking pretty stupid now for supporting all of that covid bs.
I have a friend who lost his job as a pharma salesman because he would not get jabbed. He is in his mid 50s and had been a pharma salesman for 30 years. Nobody will hire him now to sell pharma because he is not jabbed.
Tribal, Angry, Vengeful people…..they still are and getting worse.
I know a lot of folks on here don’t have or will not have a Twitter account. No problem.
But I invite some of you that are hesitant to do it. Make up a screen name and just peruse some of the posts. Read some of the comments of the Leftists and you’ll get a firsthand look at their mindset and ideology. It’s disgusting, but something you should see for yourself.
The Left a nasty, hateful and ignorant group of people.
If you didn’t give serious thought to secession and a national divorce, a few minutes on Twitter will help change your mind.
After that, delete your account and go back to living your life.
I do like the way he put this.
She claims to be bisexual now, so I guess she’s had to expand her options. She’s open to any age or race, but the one requirement is to be vaxxed. I’ve lost all respect for her after that. I once tolerated her because I thought she was a bit more thoughtful than the average lib, but I guess not.
Yikes 😳
The difference, scottiemom, is that those that decided not to get the shot weren’t pushing for anyone to:
Lose their jobs …. Be left to die even if their situation had nothing to die with covid …. Have their bank accounts frozen/seized …. Not allowed to leave their homes …. Be out in re-education camps …. Force people to wear masks … And whatever else these maniacs came up with.
On top of all of that, we have the luxury of finding out from Birx, that they were making everything up, as they went and lying to Pres Trump.
On a side note, you said both sides, Shot vs NoShot, we’re spreading mis/dis-information. Can you provide an example of the NoShot side spreading any bad info, I honestly cannot think of any and I’d like to know.
Funny to see Tim Robbins become a right-winger.

Yup, and next thing you know, he’ll quit the Film Actors Guild.
He’s still a liberal. Thus, he’s still a jerk
He will still probably enthusiastically support and vote for anyone or anything with a D next to their name.
He was responsible for putting many of his fellow actors and actresses out of work.
He is like most liberals: Give them an ounce of power and they turn into vengeful dictators willing to kill and oppress the people whop do NOT agree with them.
Time for retribution, Timmy.
Yes. Yes you did.
“Can you provide an example of the NoShot side spreading any bad info”
Somebody might be able to find some, but to anything they find I’d say our side was abandoned by the medical community entirely. We are professionals in our respective fields, which may not be medical.
We were required to try and figure out the truth on our own. So what if we got something wrong?
Hammering the no-shot side for getting something wrong is as irrational as making a doctor design a rocket and getting irate if he gets something wrong.
So much for “freedom” in the USA.
This. Free thinking people never shamed with hostility those who chose the vaccinations. We might have tried to post information clearly demonstrating that some of the press about the shots wasn’t true, or stories about people whose lives were destroyed after taking one, but we didn’t shame anyone making that choice. Everyone in Hollywood doubled down on utter cruel mocking of people not rushing in to blindly support vaccines.
Tolerance means tolerating opinions you do NOT share.
I’ll give him credit for that. His realization that something was not right in how the virus was approached may be the beginning of seeing that the official narrative on many issues has been manipulated to produce a certain end.
My mom and dad had to cancel their Christmas trip to my house because they both have covid. Both are vaxed and boosted. I told them I didn’t care and they could come anyway, but they still canceled. Hopefully they will be OK.
