There’s anti-vaxxers, and then there’s Iranian cleric Ayatollah Abbas Tabrizian.
An Iranian regime cleric in the holy city of Qom on Tuesday issued a homophobic rant against people vaccinated for COVID-19, claiming that they become gay after receiving the vaccine.
Ayatollah Abbas Tabrizian wrote on his Telegram social media platform: “Don’t go near those who have had the COVID vaccine. They have become homosexuals.”
The radical Islamist has nearly 210,000 followers on his Telegram account.
I guess this means he wants to hang every Iranian who had the vaccine.
This is the same guy who became the, ehh, butt of jokes in Iran for prescribing as a cure for coronavirus ““Before sleeping, put a cotton ball dipped in violet oil to the anus.”
That closet he’s likely in seems mighty claustrophobic.
Meanwhile, I’ve had my two shots of the vaccine and I feel fabulous!
Update: We are not immune from this stupidity either.
