I know you were being satirical but combined with your ignorance of what’s actually being used and studied… it was a swing and a miss.

Right, but why does someone who is vaccinated care if someone that is unvaccinated is sick or dead if both groups have an equal chance of spreading it to one another? I think this point is underbroadcast.
Sharing a cockpit with an unvaccinated person does not affect a vaccinated person’s risk of an infection, their children <12 getting infected, etc. or cases in general. It’s one thing I’ve never been able to wrap my head around.
I can understand it from a public health perspective, so as not to burden our healthcare system with something that is preventable, but the argument seems to be focused on preventing infections which mandates won’t do.

It sounds like the argument is that the vaccines don’t work unless someone else is vaccinated for you.
Btw, not arguing with you. I agree with your last few posts.

AA guy here(for 7 years for what it's worth, which is not much, haha), anyways, is it really this polarizing at United? I mean I have flown with vaccinated and unvaccinated pilots and to be honest it is barely a topic of conversation during a trip. I routinely finish a trip without even knowing the other persons vaccine status.. If it does come up most of the time it's because your are wanting to brag about how much time you got off using our vaccine LOA. I guess if/when AA tries to make the vaccine mandatory we will see some true colors. But from my experience both the pro-vax and no-vax camps seem to be in agreement that it should be an individuals choice...anyways I thing mandating it or lose your job is crazy, and I got the vax.

Hitler was an amateur with good PR. 6-10 million? That’s nothing compared to the numbers under Stalin or Mao and others. The thing that made him *really* bad was that he targeted Jews.
The above statement sounds like sarcasm…but it’s also a true statement.
People are quick to throw around insults comparing politicians to fascists or the National Socialist German Workers' Party, but until they bring in the MG-42 equivalents and start putting lead into the crowd, it ain’t that.
