I don’t do polls as a rule, but it’s time to test some boundaries. Below are song lyrics. I’d like honest answers:
a) Sullivan made these up
b) Someone else made them up as a spoof on vaccine-refusers
c) These are serious lyrics and will be used in an upcoming vaccine choice rally
They have swastikas on their shoulders
They’re such patriotic soldiers
They’re like a militia in Montana
They’re a government agency in AtlantaVaccine gestapo! Vaccine gestapo!
Vaccine gestapo! Vaccine gestapo!They’re a medical military priesthood
Just like Adolf they preach the greater good
Consciencious objectors are just little snot
Why don’t you quit complaining and go get your shotsVaccine gestapo! Vaccine gestapo!
Vaccine gestapo! Vaccine gestapo!can we see your papers
Have you had all your shots?
your papers please, your papers please
Have you had all your shots?
They’re got a one track mind of domination
They say vaccines are your obligation
If a bad reaction turns you into a vegetable,
They’ll sneer and tell you you’re expendableVaccine gestapo! Vaccine gestapo!
Vaccine gestapo! Vaccine gestapo!
Vaccine gestapo!
Montana doesn’t rhyme with Atlanta. Everybody knows that. You made this up.
You made ’em up!
But, then again, knowing just how kooky some anti-vaxers can be, I would not be at all surprised if this “Vaccine Gestapo” song turned out to be for real.
I am re-Tweeting…
How about:
[D] These lyrics are an attempt by irresponsible peripubescent hackers to make the AutismOne/GenerationRescue revival meeting organizers and their sponsors look like a bunch of idiots.
I mean, really, would any group of sane adults willingly associate their movement with lyrics like these?
Come on – it has to be a joke! Not even Jenny McC is that dense.
Prometheus
I have to admit it—the lyrics are real.
I found out about this from Ken Reibel’s blog post on the Huffington Post.
I just listened to ‘vaccine gestapo’ and I have no words. Yes, I’ve been stunned into silence, gaping mouth and all.
It’s more disturbing than I would expect a Poe to be. So I’d say it’s real. But I don’t think anyone will seriously consider using them.
Without even seeing Sullivan’s comment, I knew that these lyrics were real. The anti-vaccine movements knows no bounds when trying to spread its message of fear and ignorance to vulnerable parents.
Sorry, can’t answer. I read Orac before LBRB today, so knew the answer before ever reading the post!
Oh, it is real alright…you can hear Vaccine Gestapo as well as two others on Jenny’s rally page. Unbelievable!
Nice website Michelle 🙂
montana does rhyme with atlanna.
when have you ever heard an american pronounce that second t?
I heard Belkin at the Grant Park rally yesterday. During the sound check, he sang a few bars of his latest work in progress – “Vaccines Über Alles” I’m not kidding.
He ISN’T kidding about “Vaccines Uber Alles”. Christ, I heard that one too.
IMHO those lyrics are not only real, they totally smack of the woman responsible for the ‘dumb blonde’ stereotype. Just sayin’.
