The point, which a few of you missed completely, was that the data points you dismiss as irrelevant actually represent real people dealing with real hardships.

But your vaccine resistance isn't about bad data, vaccine efficacy, faulty tests, or a misunderstanding of mRNA. It is about your need to put yourself before anything and everyone. #MEFIRST. You denigrate and defame decent people who's primary concern is the health and safety of others, because it makes you feel some sense of contrarian enlightenment. You can see the truth and the rest of us are all just uninformed lemmings unable to discern fact from fiction. That makes you feel good. It makes you feel more superior. Because all of existence is there to either bolster you or take something from you. Every situation is either flattery or threat. Every person you encounter is either Friend or Foe.


In this binary world, No reasoned argument will have any impact. No data points are convincing.


If you don't want to get vaccinated no one is gonna force you to. But like it tell my kids free will is a MF and that choice may limit others.
