If ADE were an issue with the SARS-CoV-2 virus, we’d have seen it by now. And if it were an issue, it would mostly likely be with the N protein as the 2012 paper on SARS-CoV-1 ADE specifically addressed. Since the vaccines only produce antibodies against the S protein, and since nobody has experienced ADE with reinfection, it stands to reason ADE isn’t happening and is extremely unlikely at this point.
Is it possible? Sure. It’s possible a meteor will hit the Earth tomorrow and wipe out all life. It’s possible SARS-CoV-2 will turn into something as bad as weaponized smallpox and eradicated human life. It’s possible zombies will rise from the grave and eat us.
But I don’t worry about extremely remote possibilities. Is it worth keeping an eye out for evidence of it? Sure. Is it worth worrying about? Or endless articles and posts about it? No. May as well have endless articles and posts about UFO abductions.

Your opinion. It might not be observable now but the study is discussing a potential response of the current vaccines to the delta variant, and that’s only been in the US for about 2 months. I think it’s too early to know.
The rest of your post was stupid, insulting, and not worthy of a response.
It can also occur when the antibodies from the vaccines wane.

Vaccine-enhanced disease
Available data do not indicate a risk of vaccine-enhanced disease, and conversely suggest effectiveness against severe disease within the available follow-up period. However, risk of vaccine-enhanced disease over time, potentially associated with waning immunity, remains unknown and needs to be evaluated further in ongoing clinical trials and in observational studies that could be conducted following authorization and/or licensure.
