BREAKING: Conservative Radio Host Phil Valentine has died of COVID after a long battle 😷
He had recently made a parody song mocking the vaccine, but tried to encourage vaccines from his hospital bed.

(964 posts)I cannot do the same. He called friends and family to advise them to get the vaccine but did he broadcast the same to listeners?

(33,643 posts)The bigger the megaphone someone used to bash masks and vaccines, and/or COVID-deny (funny how you see a LOT fewer of outright deniers these days though, isn't it?) ... the more I celebrate the person's demise at the hands of the virus.
This guy essentially engaged in conspiracy to commit murder AFAIC.
C19 taking him out could save a lot of lives, directly and indirectly.
Buh-bye, Phil.

I wish there was a way to track how many people ignored masks and failed to get vaxxed because of him. Then, how many of those died.
It would be nice to quantify the damage he did.

I watched the video before I posted the link, but, you are correct it doesn't work for me now either. If I had a grandchild, I would get them to explain it to me.

Sometimes grave dancing is appropos, especially when a secondary cause of death is stupidity with a comorbidity of hubris.
