Yeah, as a child I was repeatedly admonished by my parents not to give in to peer pressure and experiment with drugs. Now we have people encouraging friends, family, even strangers to succumb to peer pressure and take experimental drugs.
The other massive difference is that if they were your friends they wanted you to try because it would be for you.
The people pressuring you to take the vax are doing it NOT AT ALL FOR YOU, they are only believing it will help THEM. They don’t give two craps if you die or are permanently damaged.
Dotn’t fall for the shaming. People are not shamed for not giving blood, if they don’t. Not deciding to participate in what may be considered a noble act is not shameful. We have no moral obligation to, we praise those that do. The ones that don’t aren’t evil.
I am not morally obligated to die or be permanently harmed so that others might “feel better”.
Its a serious red line for millions of people. If we can’t determine and decide what medical risks we want to take, there will be many, many fights to the death over this.
This is why “benevolent dictators” are the w orst of the bunch. They won’t allow you to live your conscience, they will not leave you alone in peace. This will lead to great violence to preserve life against those who will override your life choices.
