The great anti-vaccination hoax
American Thinker ^ | 5 Oct, 2021 | Mark C. Ross

Posted on 10/05/2021 3:51:47 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Is “anti-vaxxer” now the new “racist”? For starters, the only person an anti-vaxxer can harm is one’s self and anybody else who really respects their opinion.

Now that so many millions have been vaccinated, the database pertaining to side effects and overall effectiveness is being fleshed out… almost to the point of being conclusive. As time goes on, the conclusions will naturally firm up.

Furthermore, many of the particularly notorious anti-vaxxers are folks who have acquired natural immunity -- by having already survived a COVID infection. In fact, their immunity seems to be more effective and durable than the induced vaccine immunity.

But politics being what it is, somehow anti-vaxxers are being branded as right-wing kooks. Why? Because some uninformed drones will believe that. Folks on the Right are inherently suspicious of government coercion, especially when it involves personal decisions that really don’t affect other people. The Left limits their privacy concerns to the bedroom, leaving grocery stores, restaurants, doctors’ offices, etc. in the hands of petty tyrants (can you say “Michael Bloomberg”?).

There’s one particular exception to all of this: K-12 schools. On one hand, minor children are in the legal custody of their parents, period. On the other hand, teachers are exposed to all kinds of bugs and would be justified in referring to their students as “disease vectors.” Since children are the least at risk from the effects of COVID, then it would be prudent to require only teachers to be vaccinated. Employers often make their staff undergo various procedures, and this would not be an exception.

Back to motive, the Left uses blame as a substitute for common sense. The fact that COVID is still with us has to be somebody’s fault. Anti-vaxxers are made to order for this job.

I am a proud anti-vaxxer because Big Pharma viciously attacks whistleblowers and lies about the efficacy and safety of their products—and has done so for decades.

Now they buy politicians by the bucket-load, and try to censor anyone who questions their propaganda.

Big Pharma is evil.

Yup, Bernie Sanders said it, and he was correct.

Big Pharma is evil.

Totally wrong right off the bat. Why should I read any farther?

We are already there when liberals say that my ability to provide alternative healthcare options, rather than pay into a central pot that they decide who gets to draw out, is considered selfish.

It is not the responsibility of the unvaccinated to protect the vaccinated. That’s what the vaccine is for.

Since even the CDC admits that the so-called vaccine does not stop transmission—it only lessens the severity of symptoms—how is someone who is unvaccinated any more of a threat to others than one who is?

Those of us who refuse subject ourselves to the hacking and reprogramming of our mitochondria to produce harmful proteins have been demonized. We are the scapegoat.

How many of past pandemics were man made and not natural?
Who knows what a virus that was genetically engineered is going to do?
What are going to be future problems from an experimental vaccine that is still being given? The government is lying when they tell you the vaccine you are now getting is still the experimental,unapproved one, the approved one is in production but NOT available yet

He/she won’t explain, because he/she can’t. This individual has been thoroughly and completely brainwashed. Believing that getting a “vaccine” that reduces your symptoms somehow protects others, is profoundly idiotic. It is equivalent to believing that if YOU take aspirin, those around you won’t have their headache any longer.

Of course, since they can’t argue that the “vaccine“ prevents infection or transmission (because it doesn’t), their latest angle is to say that being “vaccinated“ makes you less likely to spread “COVID”. And they will say this despite no evidence to support that assertion, and despite plenty of evidence suggesting that the opposite is true.

It seems to me that if the “vaccines” simply reduce the symptoms of the recipient, then what the “vaccines” really do, is create people who are more likely to be asymptomatic, and therefore MORE likely to spread “COVID”, because they won’t feel sick, and will go about their business as usual, instead of staying home until they’re no longer sick/contagious.

But, unfortunately, we’re living in remarkably stupid times.

I'm re-posting your comment in hopes it passes the blood brain barrier of these annoying hit-and-run posters.

The vax works, right?

If the vax keeps you from contracting the disease, like all other vaxes in history, then it is true the unvaxed can’t hurt the vaxed.

No?

Oh, well then, the vax doesn’t stop you from being infected. But it does keep you from passing it on. NO?

Well at least it keeps you from getting a bad case, like the 65% of dead people in the u.k. who are vaxed ... oops!

So the vaxed catch it, walk around like typhoid Mary, pass it to other vaxed people and kill them.

But you want to blame the unvaxed MORE on what basis?

This is just the latest way to extend the “emergency” and justify unconstitutional police powers. Hayek saw this all too well:

“ The conditions under which such emergency powers may be granted without creating the danger that they will be retained when the absolute necessity has passed are among the most difficult and important points a constitution must decide on. ‘Emergencies’ have always been the pretext on which the safeguards of individual liberty have been eroded – and once they are suspended it is not difficult for anyone who has assumed such emergency powers to see to it that the emergency will persist. Indeed if all needs felt by important groups that can be satisfied only by the exercise of dictatorial powers constitute an emergency, every situation is an emergency situation. It has been contended with some plausibility that whoever has the power to proclaim an emergency and on this ground to suspend any part of the constitution is the true sovereign. This would seem to be true enough if any person or body were able to arrogate to itself such emergency powers by declaring a state of emergency.”

F.A. Hayek, Law, Legislation and Liberty, Vol. 3, ch. 17, 1970.

“It is not the responsibility of the unvaccinated to protect the vaccinated. That’s what the vaccine is for.“

EXACTLY CORRECT!!!

Anyone who states otherwise is ADMITTING their “vaccine” doesn’t work.

If they could come up with a vaccine where they could prove that it eliminates the virus… then, their argument would have some traction.

What they’re pushing now doesn’t stop the virus and doesn’t prevent the spread. Therefore, it cannot be called a “vaccine” in honesty.
