I don't think Woody Harrelson—a famously huge advocate for weed and for hemp products—is anyone's idea of a conservative. But he may have bought into the idea that Big Pharma, pandemic or not, might not be your friend, and he seems to have pushed some of those talking points during his monologue as host of Saturday Night Live:
Harrelson reminds me of nothing so much as a relic of the Hippie era. This could be why some might stupidly misread him as a rightie: in the Sixties, the liberals were anti-government and pro-free speech—the exact opposite of what they are now. Harrelson hasn't changed; everyone around him has. I like Harrelson as an actor. I have no idea how I'd view his politics (probably dimly), but I bet he and I could chill by the side of a pool and enjoy a decent barbecue.
ADDENDUM: the video shows the media misspelling "vaxx" as "vax." Get it straight, guys.
That's really spot-on about the sixties liberals versus today. This worship of government and "the science" is astounding. Good on Woody for having the courage of his convictions to speak out.
