Just checked a few European countries, and this is in no way out of line. The US was definitely an outlier on this one. It's interesting that they doom-monger when they join the rest of the world. Why are they not complaining about France being anti-science?
Leftist Americans fetishize Europe very selectively. RFKJ is the closest thing we’ve ever had to a European-style food safety advocate, but you know, he serves under Trump, so now food safety is bad.
Also, Americans had a very uniquely hard time under covid tyranny because we pride ourselves as the land of the free. Sorta incongruent with draconian government lockdowns in order to stop the flu. So a lot of leftists suffered intense cognitive dissonance trying to reconcile those two realities, and the vaxx was the ultimate solution for them. Just get jabbed and you can go back to pretending you’re free! That conditioning is still operating inside of a lot of boomers.

There's also every country in Europe having much harsher restrictions on abortion than most of the US.
