This is from a post on FB, about how the polio virus made a comeback in Indonesia, and has been beaten back:
But here's the part many people may not know...
Indonesian officials found a chunk of <the vaccine> disinformation came from Russia... the same playbook they've been running in Europe, the US, Africa, and yes, here in Australia.
Because why spend billions on tanks when you can break nations with Telegram memes?
The strategy is brutally elegant...
Convince religious conservatives that vaccines violate their faith.
Convince political conservatives that vaccines violate their freedom.
Convince enough people that expertise itself is a conspiracy...
...and suddenly you've turned a medical tool into a culture-war weapon.
Sick countries become unstable countries.
Unstable countries become distracted countries.
Distracted countries stop opposing Russia's geopolitical fantasies.
They don't need you to agree with them.
They just need you confused, angry, divided, and distrustful.

I’m finally working on something I always swore I’d finish. When I was a kid, my grandpa did a lot of latch-hook rug making, and one year he gave me a kit. When I finished hooking it, he helped finish the edges. I still have my nice little Inuit rug. In my 20’s I found this panther rug kit, and started it. It’s WAY more complicated. It’s also been carried around for many years (I’m 61 now) but I just started working on it again. Row 25 completed! Only 55 rows to go!

"I used to think that it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe."
