imagine caring if other people are vaccinated or not, and imagine basing your whole opinion on another human being based on vaccination status or their opinion on efficacy or transparency. What a sad world we live in. What happened to "my body my choice"? It was my choice to get vaccinated, I couldn't give a rats ass if others don't. It just seems strange to have this bizarre, militant ideological allegiance to or against a vaccine in the first place, and it seems even more bizarre that people have attached it to a political party. Like what has happened? As the vaccine doesn't stop transmission, why would I have any interest in whether someone else wants to risk a more severe infection. I don't slander someone for risking their health smoking, drinking or doing drugs, so why would anyone manifest this strange, vitriol fueled hate because of the vaccine?
I don't think I've ever wondered, or even thought about another persons vaccinations status over the whole pandemic, and have never really spoken to anyone about it, because I simply don't care. I just got the vaccine as I work in a pathology lab and have to have all my vaccines. Is it because I don't attach a political affiliation to my, or others decisions based on the vaccine? I'm generally curious, as I am generally someone who doesn't have the capacity to hate, so seeing so much division and militant political affiliation over something as trivial as a vaccine is blowing my mind now.
What happened to tolerance, inclusivity and equality? I thought that was our main goal?
Have we always done this when it comes to vaccines? Imagine this when the flu vaccine came around. Someone's like "nah, i don't trust it, i'll be fine" or "i have my doubts, check this study out".....both seem like pretty benign statements and all of a sudden you've got a bunch of people calling you a right wing terrorist, claiming your some type of death cultist, wanting you removed from the gene pool....
Like, do you not see what your typing? Is this really about vaccination or lack of vaccination? Or is this really about using vaccination status to assume someone's political affiliation and start throwing childish insults. Because calling people childish names like "death cultist" "fascist" "nazi" and insinuating their removal from the gene pool, over a simple disagreement over the efficacy and transparency of a vaccine seems really extreme to me, like completely insane.
People are ostracizing friends and family over this juvenile pursuit of right or wrong/red or blue, left or right, or jabbed/unjabbed. All under the guise or "covid safety and awareness" "freedom of speech" and "tolerance and equality". Just let me be vaccinated, have all your doubts about the vaccine, ill respect your opinion, and you respect mine.
Just decide whether it's "My body, My choice" or not. Because I'm sick of this hypocrisy. I'd never discriminate against someone solely based on what they do with their body, whether that be sexually, medically, recreationally. We should all be focusing on our similarities, as we all have a lot in common, not our differences. especially over something as trivial as this.
