I completely accept your choice and your rights to make that choice.
As I was reading your post I became concerned by the way the wording seemed to portray the elderly person’s choice as being bad or stupid or some other such derogatory expression. That then carried over with the calling others disrespectful names, deriding their choices. I just wanted it to be absolutely clear everyone should be allowed to make their choices without being pigeon holed into a totally negative category.
As you will note, I wasn’t 188% clear on your motive. I would appreciate it if the derisive aspects could be toned down some though. ThankQ
There were no such things as you assert in my post, and my only motive was to give my opinion! It seems you “saw red” at my opining that the vaccine is a human experiment, with many willing guinea pigs. I stand by that viewpoint, with no apology. If you inferred anything disrespectful, derisive or derogatory from my words, then perhaps it is your contrary opinion causing you to project those things onto me. Just something to consider.
As for my elderly friend, I do believe she has been so conditioned and fearmongered by her adult children and the MSM news since last March that she is unable to even consider any opposing viewpoint to the one she has adopted, or even to apply logic to it.
When I brought up the previously healthy 41 y/o Portuguese nurse who died 2 days after, and the 56 y/o Miami doctor who died 2 weeks after, injections of the Pfizer vaccine, her response was, “That’s so sad, but it was evidently just their times to go from this world.”
I then asked her, “What about all those poor frail people in the nursing homes who died with and from Covid? Was it their times to go, too?” She immediately and emphatically answered, “Absolutely not! If they had only gotten the vaccine in time, they would still be alive!”
I raised my eyebrows and asked, “Really?” But she was unable to see how her argument completely flipped to the opposite side when considering different sets of circumstances.
