Yep. Douchebags.

Similar to right wing leadership preaching against vaccines while getting there’s.
See, that is some horribly twisted misinformation. They aren’t preaching AGAINST vaccines, they’re preaching against MANDATES. You know, individual freedom and choice? Shit that used to be taken for granted in this country….
Yeah…I could have worded that better and should have included right wing media influencers…especially Fox.

Leadership would be a hard push for everyone to get vaccinated unless there’s a medical risk against doing so.

Still….

That's incorrect (as you know) and also not how Kalm wrote the sentence.

"Leadership would be a hard push for everyone to get vaccinated unless there is a medical risk against doing so."


Break out the contraction - how is that wrong? I think the sentence is being read 2 different ways (and you're reading it the wrong way). :mrgreen: :kisswink:

Kalm used "there's" correctly; Ibanez is right.

Your example is "theirs" because it's possessive.
