What is?

So apparently it’s your job to try to scare them into getting vaccinated for no reason at all? If you’re not scared of covid-19 why bother?

Reading comprehension not your strong suit, huh? ‘Should have finished 8th grade.

Comprehending people like you is where I have a failing. You’ve even managed to twist around the concept of fear, as if the people wanting to be left alone are the problem, but the people who demand others complicity in a specific action are somehow the passive ones who are only motivated by morality. It makes no sense.

If you want to be “left alone”, then separate yourself from society. If you want to be a part of society, then you live by the rules of that society. This is not a new concept.

Fear of vaccination? Yes. Vaccines have been around for over 200 years, but Trump told you they are bad, “fake news”, and lessen his power. You have no data whatsoever to suggest this vaccine is different than the many multiple dozens that are out there, but you “know” the vaccine is a bad thing and you do everything you can to support your false beliefs, except rely on the scientific method.
Science bad. Feelings and beliefs good.

It’s not a new concept to ask for the removal of people from society. It’s an outdated and discredited fascist concept that has never worked in any free society in the history of mankind. These laws against passive behavior leads down a horrible road of many laws against all types of passive behavior. Do you not at least understand why someone would have this position with the history of our governments arrest record? We spend all those years fighting to decriminalize passive behavior, like carrying a bag of weed in your pocket, only to start wanting to strictly regulate other passive behaviors. I understand having a different opinion, but I don’t understand the complete inability to put yourself into someone else’s mindset.

Interesting twist on facts.
I’ve had vaccinations plus boosters AND been exposed to COVID.
Seems the ones who are afraid are the ones who won’t get vaxed, no?

Where is the twist? Why would someone get vaccinated against an illness they arent afraid of?

The twist is labeling those with a legitimate concern of Covid as “in fear” while the ones who actually fear the vax just want life “as usual”.

As if the vaccine is what has turned the world completely upside down the past two years.

I would say your body, your choice or is that limited to aborting babies?

A good analogy for argument sake, but a bit of a fail in that the people who were so against choice have suddenly decided choice is important when it suits them.

The real issue is that we have had mandatory vaccines for decades and vaccines in general for centuries. Suddenly, people have major problems with these facts.

I’ll pose my next thought as a question: What is the common thread between COVID denial, anti-mask and anti-vax feelings and beliefs?

So what should be done about it? Should I just throw away my mother for being religious? What about my aunt on my father side? X her out of society also for being a religious whacko? There isn’t a solution to this problem that doesn’t involve killing off a certain percentage of the population in one way or another.

If it’s false religion, then it’s no religion. You do t get to apply religion on as “as needed” basis and disregard it when it doesn’t suit your needs.
Do that, it’s not your religion at all.
Remember, one’s chosen religion does not have biological effects on the body that cause reactions to a vaccine.

So, how many of the population have we “killed off” with this (and all other) vaccinations so far?

You didn’t answer the question. What do we do with the religious people? Do we send you to their house to convince them or just get rid of them?

I got mandated vaccines as a kid but don't recall any vaccines being mandated as an adult. I've got flu and tetanus shots since then but nothing else. Which mandated shots am i missing?

I say again: Would you get vaccinated for an illness you aren't afraid to catch? It's a very straightforward yes or no question.
