FROM JC ( THIS TAKES THE CAKE)

Canadian liberal satirist and “endearing curmudgeon” Michael Young, 63, died suddenly and unexpectedly AT HOME on February 6th

For all of his endearing curmudgeonliness, Michael often sarcastically wrote about other dumb people who didn’t share his faith in high technology, such as in this Fate-defying example, tweeted right after he got his booster shot:

CLICK TO ELARGE ( Fully’s comment…HOW IS IT POSSIBLE TO BE THIS FUCKING ARROGANTLY STUPID ? SHEESH)

We would love to, but sadly it is too late to ask Michael if he is sorry about taking the shots. But in my mind’s eye, I see Michael pensively reflecting that he’d do it all over again, because it could have been worse.

Michael particularly disliked Trump supporters and “Freedumb convoy eedjits,” but what worried him most in life was the lack of legal consequences for misinformers who spread lies about the vaccine’s safety and efficacy. Michael almost equated slander against the vaccines with slander against a religious icon like the muslim prophet Mohammed, and felt there should be legal protections for the vaccines, too:

Michael was an avowed, irreverent atheist who subscribed to scientism, and who saw his role as undermining the faithful. He enjoyed trolling religious folks, such as by creating triggering images like this one of himself dressed up as the Beast of Revelation:

And now, after all his brave words, he’s dead. Just like that. I pray Michael receives mercy, and that wherever he is now, it is where he hoped he would be.
