I don't see it that way. She was fed a diet of fear and hate and made an extremely bad choice. Her family is grieving because she made this ridiculous choice.
You make it sound like she was a helpless child. She was a fully grown woman responsible for her own actions.
Yes, but she was a dumb, incredibly gullible adult who was fed a diet of lies by people who didn't give a shit about her.
It's her fault she fell for it.
Exactly. Who feels bad for that idiot who got swindled by scammers? Not me.
I think we can agree that gullible people were victimized for someone else's benefit.
But she became irredeemable as well as oppositional. So she wasnt going to get heroics.
She died from her own petulance.
If she gave 2 fucks bout her family and how they would feel, she would have got the vaccine and then transplant. She rather chose to be a brainless foot soldier for the people who duped her
Sorry. Don't have time to feel bad for every idiot out there
