This is the whole crux of MAHA. Make health a completely personal choice by denying any external causes of disease and then when you completely cut any possible health assistance then that’s fine because health is a completely personal choice and responsibility and people should just try harder to he healthy
It’s “prosperity gospel” but for health instead of wealth. I’m healthy because I’m a good person and you’re not because you’re a bad person. It’s literally the same talking points too. Point at the minority of folks in a demographic who actually make genuinely bad decisions and apply that to the group as a whole.
Didn’t forget the part where you get to blame people for their own illness! Being sick now becomes a moral failing because you didn’t do enough to stay healthy.

Being sick is a moral failing just like being poor or being ugly. /S
Btw, have y’all seen the mar-a-lago face? That one IS a personal choice. And WOW what a choice.
But if you do try to stay healthy (e.g. wearing a mask and social distancing during cold and flu season) you’re a $insult_of_the_week
