Vaxxine Rebellion

[Kidlicious]

I must admit, although I am pro vaccination and totally understand that being vaccinated not only lowers my own risk but that of the community as a whole, I'm with Kid in that I don't think people should be forced to take the vaccine.

Educational material explaining the benefits and countering the misinformation should be promoted, free and convenient access should be available, and incentives offered. Ultimately though, if someone has such a deep distrust of government, health institutions and science, and if they're scientific literacy and numeracy is that poor, then forcing them will only entrench those. I think it's counterproductive overall to mandate, in this case.

I'd place a proviso that until everyone who wants to be vaccinated is vaccinated that those who aren't should have their ability to infect others curtailed.

If it were ebola, polio, or something else that seriously affected a higher percentage of the population, I might be more in favour.

I think the vaccines are good. I just think Biden is doing this for his approval rating. I would like to see people like Dr Fauci and Joe Biden go to prison where they belong then we can talk about trusting the government.

I doubt it's a lie, but if it is then it's an epic troll. She really exposed a lot of people

[Kidlicious]

No... I'm simply saying that somebody that tells a crazy ass story with no proof, and then journalists and health officials investigate and find nothing, is simply a liar. Whether you believe her or not is not the issue. The issue is that you are defending her story.
So in kidland, you can simply say anything you want and it might be true... gee, just like Trumps claim he won in a landslide...

If you just keep saying that I'm defending her story then I don't know what to say. But I'm defending her. I don't care if she lied. That's her business.

[Kidlicious]

I never said that her story was true. You keep claiming that even though it's not true.

[Ming]

You made everything up, because you have no evidence. Not only are you intolerant of people with different opinions than you but you call them liars when you have no evidence that they lied.

Blah blah blah... nobody has been able to back up her crazy assed story... but I guess in Kidland, that means it must be true.
The only one making stuff up here is her.
But using your logic, if somebody claims you are a murderer, but n body can prove are or aren't, you must be a murder.
Only in Kidland...

[Kidlicious]

I made up nothing...

[Ming]

I made up nothing... unlike you and her. Nobody found any evidence... and that is a fact.
But feel free to believe whatever fantasy you want, just like that Trump won.

[Kidlicious]

So you believe she lied with absolutely zero evidence. You state that as a fact and then make up some nonsense about people not finding evidence, but they actually couldn't even talk to people because everyone hates them. Cool. Whatever. Do your thing.

[Ming]

I'll try this again. Why are you calling her a liar, when the journos and health officials didn't find any evidence to that effect?

Because here story was a lie, and no journalist or health official could find any proof supporting her story...
NOTHING supports her story... There are NO FACTS to support her story.
But please feel free to believe her lie since Trump supporters do that all the time... just believe what somebody says, even if it's not true and sounds absolutely bat**** crazy.

[Kidlicious]

I'll try this again. Why are you calling her a liar, when the journos and health officials didn't find any evidence to that effect?

[Ming]

Blah blah blah... you are supporting a liar, and whining about journalists that tried to do their job and follow up on the story she made by tweeting to her millions of followers.
And then called health officials bad for trying to follow up on it.

She told the lie... She put a target on her cousins/friends back by spreading a lie... and then she acted like a spoiled child when journalists followed up. But go ahead and defend her.
She is a liar.

[Kidlicious]

I've already told you what you are asking. You're just pretending that I'm saying something else.

[-Jrabbit]

To document that it was a lie, duh.
