1. what is a 'bat signal"?????

[Jim G.]

3. From The Batman Comics

It was a spotlight with the bat logo in it to call the Batman.

This was a metaphor.

4. ok, google is my friend..............

So, if I interpret this right--some folks--Hannity, Peter Doocy and now #mitchmconnell --that I know of---are in distress for pushing the anti-vax dangerous message. so they are jumping to make amends

Batsignal
The Batsignal (or Bat-Signal) is a distress signal device appearing in the various interpretations of the Batman mythos. It is a specially modified Klieg searchlight with a stylized symbol of a bat attached to the light so that it projects a large Bat emblem on the sky or buildings of Gotham City.

8. It's from Batman comic books

A bat signal is an image of a bat (the mammal kind) projected into the sky to summon Batman when help was needed. Also in a TV show.

Edit: I see you found it yourself.

18. I am betting that corporate America is behind the sudden Republican/FuxNews turn around.

19. In the original Batman comic books, when Batman was needed in Gotham City,

a search light shaped in the form of a bat would flash across the night sky.

2. Too little too late the Pandora Box of Delta is open and

Thanks to the non vaxxed we will all need boosters sooner than anticipated and the Trumpers aren't doing that. They can't pull it back now it grew too strong and will have it's way. And cult members watch OAN now anyway it's TFG channel of choice.

12. This Is Correct On Many Levels

Welcome To DU!

5. Powerful somebodies lit a fire under their collective ass

When characters ranging from Ruprecht Morlock to Sad MudTurtle are suddenly hawking vaccine, they get their marching orders from a higher power. Fucking around with people’s lives to attempt making Joe Biden and Democrats look bad is one thing, but a resurgent pandemic could affect bottom lines. Please! Will no one think of the profits?!?

7. The significance of this is that McConnell just got word

... that Chump is no longer planning to knife him in the back.

Either that, or he just doesn't care any more. Take your pick.

20. The variant that I will fear is a lovechild of Delta and Gamma.

Delta is highly infectious, Gamma has shown a capability to elude vaccines and natural anti-bodies.

10. Why now? Reality has never mattered to them before. NT

[MineralMan]

11. So it appears.

Maybe they're figuring out that it's their supporters who are now getting sick and dying...

[Treefrog]

16. Again. You were spot on with your prediction a couple months ago.

I like to give credit where credit is due.

13. Someone finally showed McTurtle a map of the USA with the worst infected states in red

He probably thew up his hands and cried, “Holy Chiao, them’s OUR voters! Full speed astern, get us outta here!”

[malaise]

15. More than a year too late

Fugg 'em all

[stillcool]

17. it's all on them. They own Covid.

McConnell and fellow predators have done nothing but stoke fear and create a mass psychosis.
