Anybody want a Corona?

[Matters]

After two years and 900 pages, Matters is firing this thread back up, huh?

Do people no longer worry about Covid where u live? If so, you’re lucky to live in a place with so many logical thinkers.

[Matters]

I prefer a vax mandate vs. mask mandate.

If the shot was able to stop transmission of the virus, (the CDC has admitted since delta that it isn’t) and if a higher percentage of the population were actually at risk of serious illness or death from covid, I would agree w you. Since neither are true, fierce opposition against the people who inflict and support these mandates should be taken.

Oh yeah?

Yes. You understand that mandates don’t end w covid, right? You can see that precedents are being set for the foreseeable future, right?

[bart]

Pretty soon they’ll be forcing our kids to get vaccines before they can go to school!!!

[Matters]

That comment is almost stupid enough for me to wish your child one day be forced to take an unnecessary injection they are not comfortable w taking, in order to work and support his or her family.

[bart]

My kids are not known for being comfortable with any shots, necessary or not, but luckily they’re under ten so we haven’t made them get jobs to support the fam quite yet.

[Matters]

My goodness. Reread and pay closer attention to the words “one day”.

[bart]

Oh jeez, boy is there egg on my face!

[Matters]

Do you honestly believe you can speak for your children, 20 years from now?

[Matters]

Because whether you understand it or not, we are creating, right now, the world they will live in when they become working adults.

[bart]

I’m assuming you’re also applying the fierce resistance approach to climate change then, right?

[Matters]

Terrible attempt at false argument.

[bart]

So that’s a no

[Matters]

Taking care of our environment is common sense. Back to topic please.

[bart]

Ok, I am fully fine with my kids having to get one more shot every year or whatever.

[Matters]

For now you are.

[elliseamos]

I'm sorry, what is the problem with requiring vaccines against potentially deadly viruses?

Since we're getting hypothetical let's also assume that another virus in anyone's kid's future is even more deadly.

[Coach]

If only the vax was developed under a Republican president....oh wait.

This is funnily something a primary opponent could hit Trump with - it was reckless to fasttrack a leaky vaccine that then could be mandated.

Is there some sort of service this board subscribes to that provides a steady stream of angry right wingers?

Covid response (caring for your fellow man) smoked them out.
