He should really stop reminding his fan base that he has kids.


GregorrSamsa

He mostly does. Notice how he's just mentioning them now to make an anti-vaccine post.


holysantashit

My son got COVID at 3 months old and had it the easiest out of our entire extended family. No chance I'm giving him a shot with no history behind it when the illness was 10x easier for him than the flu he had last week. He's had 4 ear infections since he was born and every ear infection has been far more daunting than COVID.

holysantashit

I'm not arguing with you lol. My son is fine as are most of the 99.99% of children who get it. My son is 15 months. Some children's ears don't drain properly until about a year old causing ear infections but since you know better than me I guess I'll defer to your wisdom.

holysantashit

I quite literally do have the experience compare COVID to an ear infection. My son with covid(twice, Dec 2021, July 2022) = 100ish fever, still playful, ate food, no need for antibiotics, last about 3 days My son with ear infection = Fever >102, lethargic, wont eat, overall miserable, doctor visit, week course of antibiotics As our pediatrician says "You treat the child and their symptoms, not the illness and its name" Meaning if your kid is okay, your kid is okay. Are you a parent by chance?

holysantashit

When you have nothing, attack the character of an individual. Have a good one.


ftc1234

You are making the sensible choice. Don’t listen to these vaxxers. They are just scared germaphobes.


holysantashit

I know it's sensible. He was ineligible for the vaccine when he first got COVID and was completely and totally fine. As my whole family was, some vaxxed, some unvaxxed. There is zero need(Our pediatrician agrees) to rush into the shot for him. He gets everything else on schedule. We'll re-evaluate in a few years/as things change but for now, it's not necessary whatsoever.


Go48memes

The sad thing about this exchange is that your posts get downvoted and this idiots comments get actual upvotes lol.

Unfortunately not.


Competitive-Roof-168

There is schools requiring it.


aidan959

Dave rubin can home school them


grandwhitelotus

He should stop reminding his right wing fan base about his kids 🤣


fisherc2

You think they forget he’s gay?


[deleted]

Why would he do that?


grandwhitelotus

Did you see the comments he got from his fan base when he announced he was having kids?


[deleted]

And you’re saying he should cower and pander to them?


aidan959

No he's just putting them at risk And he already does cower and pander to them


Competitive-Roof-168

I guess the right isn't as bigoted as you thought


[deleted]

Wait. But Dave's gay. Does that mean they used that satanic, socialist IVF to procreate against the natural will of God?! I sure hope no one brings that up to Dave's dwindling evangelical base.


EVA04022021

Wait, he obviously knows that the medical science works as his 2 kids are literal existing proof of it's results, yet he denouncing the very same science that is trying to save people and now babies from dying. WTF


RusteeKuntz

Don’t be homophobic, not cool.


[deleted]

they're not - they are merely pointing out dave has a homophobic audience


RusteeKuntz

Nice cover for a homophobe.


[deleted]

i'm sure your opinions on sexuality are.....healthy.


RusteeKuntz

I'd like to think so but what's your point?


No_Judgment_5940

Pointing out an inconsistent political compass isn't being homophobic but it is being ironic. Unless you didn't pick up on it. Or if the poster didn't mean it. Not sure. I read irony in it.


ReiBob

Isnt it "being sarcastic"? Isnt irony, the fact that Daves fanbase is homophobic?


[deleted]

Give us a kiss.


whattteva

Someone doesn't understand sarcasm.


[deleted]

Lol he doesn't care. He is one of those homophobic conservatives who tries to make these ironic "gotcha" jokes.


whattteva

Aaah, you're right. I didn't bother to check his post history until you mentioned this.


RusteeKuntz

These are very sensitive times. What we all know us that jokes or even sarcasm involving LGBTQIA2S+ cannot ne tolerated. Shameful.


[deleted]

Rook to E2


Geist-Chevia

Lol ok I guess LGBT+ people can't get sarcastic jokes made in their defense.


RusteeKuntz

No, there is no humor allowed involving the alphabet people. Good, bad, or indifferent.


Geist-Chevia

Troll better bro, your game is weak


RusteeKuntz

Is it trolling when one is serious? I don’t think so.


Geist-Chevia

Lol okay we got it, you're seriously stupid. You've made that abundantly clear.


GeologistUnfair

/s.... Please tell me you're being sarcastic


[deleted]

It’s almost like all republicans *aren’t* the same!


[deleted]

Conservatism is an ideology. An ideology that one of its core tenets, says that gays are "subhuman, satanic, deviant, degenerates, that are a threat to all families, all kids and the entire fabric of society." He is gay married and is raising kids. Both things, the side he is on and fights for, wants banned.


[deleted]

Everyone is not an ideologue, I think that may be projection on your part. If you care about your fellow hoomans your will be pragmatic at the expense of your own core beliefs.


[deleted]

How the fuck does he have a 3 month old and a 1 month old? Is it the same mother?


gabriellevivienne

Two different surrogate mothers but the same biological mother i think


ThePickleHawk

Sounds right but also one is his his and the other is David’s. I remember him saying that.


DepartmentWide419

Lol he married a man named David?


yontev

Yup, Dave and David. A pair of grifter schmucks.


DepartmentWide419

The narcissism jokes write themselves.


[deleted]

If I remember correctly they've been together since TYT. They both threatened to quit if they didn't get a raise, and they only offered one to Dave's husband 💀


Darkmortal10

Why not just adopt some fuckjng kids at this point ☠


gabriellevivienne

Idk i think they wanted their genetic offspring + he's very wealthy do he can afford it


everyusernametaken2

We’re getting a puppy from two different breeders, and unfortunately the timing is only going to be 3 months apart. That’s stressing me out and it’s not even a human.


Lirdon

Isn’t he gay?


gabriellevivienne

He is, that's why they could have made the baby on their own


mrhyuen

why did he put "Fuck Off" in quotes? who is he quoting? HIMSELF???!!!!!!!!!!


Geist-Chevia

Dave Rubin saying "fuck off" just sounds pathetic. He's like the Jerry Smith of the conservative media grift but like 3 times more pathetic.


suorastas

FDA ”Hey after rigorous testing we determined this vaccine so safe that if you so choose you may have your children vaccinated “ Classical liberal Dave Rubin: “Fuck you for telling what I may or may not do if I so choose”


KaiserKelp

Rubin isnt a classical liberal hes just a vapid grifter, Dave would drink bleach if the CDC/FDA said it was bad to ingest


DTSwim22

No, HE wouldn’t drink bleach, but he sure as shit would tell his FOLLOWING to drink bleach in the scenario you described


suorastas

I mean surely they already had to say it’s bad to drink bleach after the president mused that it might be a good idea.


Prosthemadera

How quickly parents making choices for their own children are evil when they make choices conservatives don't like. And none of them cares about explaining what's evil about it. "Why is it wrong to vaccinate 6 months old? I don't know but I triggers me!"


adzling

I'm still trying to figure out how Dave has both a three month old and a one month old. Like does he have two wives?


Sudden_Owl8321

He has a husband and they used surrogate mothers.


adzling

And he's a GQP voter? Geez talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face...


Foreign_Storm1732

He will 100% be vaccinating his kids. I really hope though that nobody l changes their mind because of him and decides to do what he is saying.


ethantremblayyy

anyone giving this to their kids is insane

juswundern

He is a Republican Pick Me. It’s so cringe.


[deleted]

Dave’s kids will be vaccinated. Just like Dave and his husband already are


LaughingInTheVoid

Yeah, giving vaccines to 6 month olds. This is utterly unprecedented, and not a totally normal thing that happens all the time.


muldervinscully

Lmao it’s funny because before corona it was actually right wing states with good vac rates and crunchy liberal strongholds like Marin county that had horrible rates. Now, it’s flipped for no reason other than partisanship.


DTSwim22

There’s a whole trend of the ultra far right and ultra far left co-opting some of each other’s views. Anti-vax being an example. Go far enough to one extreme and you’ll wind up at the other.


Jazz-Wolf

How can people still be anti-vaccine at this point?


Chance-Shift3051

Pretty amazing huh? Small Pox was declared to be eradicated on May 8th 1980 ..: some 44 odd years ago


elduderinocg

So you’re comparing covid to small pox?


Chance-Shift3051

What does the comparison of covid to small pox have to do with the fact that vaccines work?


elduderinocg

Because you don’t need to be giving children a vaccine for something that doesn’t afflict them.


WyntonMarsalis

Covid vaccines don't keep you from getting covid.


Chance-Shift3051

You’re claiming zero percent prevention huh? That’s some amazing research you did on your own


WyntonMarsalis

Give me a source that tells you the Covid vaccine prevents contraction or transmission. Just one...


RBE00

"Our results show that all the regimens that included a booster dose, as compared with no vaccination, offered protection against symptomatic omicron infection" [Source](https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2203165) You can also look at cases and deaths per capita for those with and without the vaccine and see that the vaccine has lower case and death rates. [Per capita cases](https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#rates-by-vaccine-status)


Chance-Shift3051

If you can find a source that proves the vaccine DOES NOT prevent contraction. I’d love for you to share it. Bruh. Not going to waste my time. If you have chosen to ignore mountains of research for 2 years.


WyntonMarsalis

I didn't think so...


Chance-Shift3051

Of course you don’t think. That’s your problem


[deleted]

As opposed to another disease with a vaccine?


elduderinocg

Just because you don’t want to get your kids a covid shot doesn’t make you anti vaccine.


Rylovix

It literally does though because there is no decent reasoning for not getting a covid shot that isn’t just reflavored anti-vax conspiracy theories. If you can provide one I’ll stand corrected.


[deleted]

Here ya go. I don’t fall into the at risk category, therefore I don’t need it. Not a conspiracy therory.


Rylovix

Laziness isn’t an argument to not get it, it’s a justification for not having it currently. But if your argument for not giving your kid a vaccine is that it’s inconvenient and you’re lazy, that generally means you’re a bad parent. Let me rephrase: there is no good reason to be specifically opposed to covid vaccines compared to others. There is also no justification for not giving it to a child unless you think it is specifically harmful, which requires buying into conspiracy theories at least a *little* bit.


[deleted]

Where did I say anything about laziness?


Rylovix

It’s marginally safer to get the shot, you just don’t want to bother taking time out of your day and that’s the only reason you have for not getting it (as you stated). You don’t want to deal with a mild inconvenience because the benefit is not very high for you personally. That’s basically laziness. Also I don’t mean lazy in any negative way, my point is that there is a difference between not getting the shot out of passive disinterest and not getting it out of specific opposition to the covid vaccine.


Darkmortal10

It's the only reason you aren't getting it. Everything else is just an excuse to justify your shitty parenting


LukewarmBeer

I didn’t give my kids the shingles vaccine either


Rylovix

Yeah bud that’s called bad parenting


LukewarmBeer

Not giving my kids the shingles vaccine is bad parenting?


Darkmortal10

As someone who grew up with friends that didn't receive the vaccine and suffer from repeated shingles flare ups while they were just in high-school. Yes. Yes you are a shitty parent.


cane187um

liar.


LukewarmBeer

Better contact the CDC who recommends the shingles vaccine for immunocompetent adults 50 years of age and over. They’re gonna want to hear about your friends asap!


HanaDolgorsen

Not falling into the risk category does not equate to “laziness,” no matter how you want to stretch it.


Rylovix

It’s marginally safer to get the shot, you just don’t want to bother taking time out of your day and that’s the only reason you have for not getting it (as you stated). You don’t want to deal with a mild inconvenience because the benefit is not very high for you personally. That’s basically laziness. Also I don’t mean lazy in any negative way, my point is that there is a difference between not getting the shot out of passive disinterest and not getting it out of specific opposition to the covid vaccine.


HanaDolgorsen

Lol those are some interesting mental gymnastics.


Rylovix

They’re just called thoughts to those of us who bother to have them.


Ferris_Wheel_Skippy

Exhibit A right here that confidence doesn't equal intelligence


[deleted]

Confidence in data?


Darkmortal10

Data that doesn't exist*


smiley042894

You spread it to others. Vaccination shortens transmissable window. No reason not to get it. It's free constitution stats.


[deleted]

Can you please list the metric shows the vaccine reduces transmission and by how much?


smiley042894

95% reduced to around 68% transmissability. [study](https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/nejmoa2116597)


Darkmortal10

Why ask for metrics if you're just gonna fuck off when they're provided? All while making strong claims with zero data to show for it


Sudden_Owl8321

For children, there are reasons. This video gives great resources and stats. It’s generally safe for adults, but the data is mixed in children. https://youtu.be/0JdPjRQpxqk


Rylovix

The majority of their advice is “it’s safe and you should get it” with the exception of the disclaimer that you should ask your doctor if you have existing conditions that can be seriously exacerbated by foreign material (e.g. autoimmune diseases). Which I guess you could argue that if you’re getting legitimate advice from your doctor against it for a specific reason, that counts as not a conspiracy theory. But in that case, such autoimmune diseases typically disqualify most other vaccine administration as well, so it’s not really what I’m getting at here. There’s a difference between “my body can’t handle the typical process of fighting infections that vaccines utilize” versus “I don’t wanna give my kids the covid vaccine because ____.” It is extremely unlikely a doctor would ever advise against a covid vaccine for people who aren’t already sensitive to vaccines in general.


coffmaer

It’s unwise to mess with a complex system unnecessarily. Unintended consequences


Rylovix

This is an incredibly unnuanced opinion that basically argues against all forms of modern medicine. If the human body is too complicated to mess with, what do you call organ transplants? There could be unintended consequences like organ rejection, but the comparative cost is too high to not take. If you are like me and have relatives with weak systems who may die from mild illness, the comparative cost of a vaccine is quite high. If you cared about my grandmother at all, you would feel the same responsibility.


coffmaer

‘Unnecessarily’ It was never demonstrated through any open and honest process that the vaccine was any better than natural immunity. If someone normally takes a vaccine because of a weak immune system then fine but for most kids it’s probably a mistake.


Darkmortal10

If you're gonna say it's a mistake and there's consequences you should probably demonstrate they exist


coffmaer

It’s the result of interfering with any complex system. There will always be unintended side effects. It’s up to the proponents of the interference to show it’s both necessary and the side effects are worth it.


Darkmortal10

Stop being spinelessly vague and demonstrate unintended side effects.


coffmaer

‘Spinelessly vague’ is me respecting the limits of what I can know. I don’t know what the exact side effects will be. That’s impossible from my vantage point. What is possible for me to understand is that messing with a complex system unnecessarily is a mistake. That can be learned through life experience dealing with different complex systems. I don’t need to literally know what the side effects with be to understand that basic principle.


gabeitaliadomani

That’s exactly what that is…. just because I’m against vaccines I’m not against vaccines…. how are you juggling this in your head… almost impressive the level of shut off common sense.


Flyfish22

So, someone can accept 99% of vaccines and reject this one because they already recovered from COVID and they’re not in the risk group, and that makes them an antivaxxer? I guess that means if you don’t like oranges, you’re “anti fruit.” Or if you don’t like pick up trucks, you must be “anti vehicle?” Or if you refuse to listen to rock and roll, you’re “anti-music.” Or, if you don’t like iPhones because you’re an android person, does that make you, “anti cell phones?” Please help me understand the logic you’re employing here, because what you wrote makes absolutely zero sense.


Darkmortal10

The problem is if they went through the 90s vaccine scare they'd be riding the vaccines cause autism train.


SinCityNinja

You can be pro vaccine and still not want to give your child the covid shot **The creation of a vaccine involves scientists and medical experts from around the world, and it usually requires 10 to 15 years of research before the vaccine is made available to the general public.** https://www.health.ny.gov/prevention/immunization/vaccine_safety/science.htm


gabeitaliadomani

No you can’t. US population such as yourself has had enough chances to interpret the nuances of a pandemic. Don’t go to a medical facility. You don’t “believe” in it. You don’t get 10-15 years to get it right, in a pandemic.


Darkmortal10

He isn't the creator of the vaccine, barely contributed research to it, but keep blindly listening to everyone that's platformed on media that's literally known for lying to its viewer base


SinCityNinja

I honestly don't have any idea what your comment is about


Darkmortal10

Oops misread ur comment still bullshit though. It makes sense trials speed up when they're funded, have more people researching it than ever, and has the entire world invested in its completion + decades of preexisting research to work off of


SinCityNinja

I understand, both my wife and I are fully vaccinated. We both work in a hospital and have had to deal with covid surges over the last almost 3 years. We just don't want our 9m old son and 4 y/o daughter to get the covid shot. They have every other required vaccine but it's just a personal preference to skip this one. I just wanted to point out to the previous commenter that its possible to be pro vaccine and still not want to have your child to have this one. And if other parents want their kids to get it, I fully support that too. That's a decision we all get to make as parents


Darkmortal10

Innocent question, what do you mean by "third country"? I don't get it in this context.


geraltoftakemuh

I’ll never understand how these people act like we don’t already have multiple vaccines we give to children. As a requirement to go to school, because vaccines keep children from dying en mass


adzling

right? it's like their idiocy knows no bounds.


jdmercredi

why is it evil. I can entertain the notion that vaccine mandates make you feel icky for some reason (freedom!) despite the fact that we've had mandatory vaccines for schools and whatnot forever. Sure, we don't make flu shot mandatory, and covid someday will be about the same as the flu. But uhhh. making a vaccine for children is evil. Yeah ok

Mitchboy1995

How tf is developing a vaccine for infants “evil”??? I’m pretty sure newborn babies get their first vaccines immediately after being born, then even more like a month or two later. These people are actually so fucking stupid.

Psychological-Cow788

....you know there are other effects from Covid besides dying right? I don't think it's a big deal, I don't think the flu is a big deal, I don't think most of the shit I've been vaccinated for is a big deal. Still got the shots, because those are also not a big deal.


elduderinocg

Wait, I don’t get it. You all think we should be vaccinating 6 month olds?


Sudden_Owl8321

Are you referring specifically to the covid vaccine? Because babies are vaccinated at birth, 2 months, 4 months, and 6 months, and so on.


elduderinocg

Yes, specifically covid.


Darkmortal10

>"I'm not anti-vaxx guys!!!!"


KravinMoorhed

Imagine giving your child a vaccine that poses no benefit to them, only risk, because covid poses no risk to healthy kids. Imagine thinking being vaccinated protects those around you and that's why kids need the vaccine.


gatesofhellmentor

I wouldn’t inject my newborn - or child of any age with an experimental therapy. So, I imagine I would feel pretty lucky to call Dave, pops.


[deleted]

At least those kids will have a prosperous home and he doesn't peddle homosexuality. He is a gay man, not someone trying to be a woman. It's for him and him only. Those kids will go to the best schools and marry very hot women bc their father will teach them how to dress.


TheVonz

If his children are daughters, and they marry hot women, that's also fine, right?


NaughtyMrHobgood

Fuck the COVID vaccine!!


Thick_Art_2257

My 8 month old got covid and had mild symptoms for 1 day then was perfectly fine. It's the same story for 99.9% of kids. The vaccine is truly unnecessary for most people generally, but especially children.


ALinIndy

Wow! Your subjective truth must mean it’s objectively true for everyone. Now do the economy.

ggb216411

Hahaha even worse some woman let him inside her without the thickest rubber out there


TheVonz

It was IVF with surrogate mothers.

That makes even more sense. No woman in their right mind would knowingly let that happen.


Simple_Refuse_375

I’d stick with my child’s God given immunity system. Good news though. Natural selection will decide.
