In other words, you're a coward. You're getting the benefit of all those that
were vaccinated, while afraid to take a tiny risk, one that pales in comparison
to the real, deadly effects of the disease. I just heard a commercial urging
people to get vaccinated. It said that this is the first time since WWII that
all Americans need to come together for the common good. You're hiding,
no surprise there. And with almost 600K Americans DEAD from Covid,
we need the vaccine now, not years from now.


You got it. Near you it's expiring because they have too much. Ya know some
hospital people are refusing it? They have to pay them to take it? You don't
stand for freedom of choice, your mantra is "I am lord, I am right, sit down,
shut up" sounds familiar from say the 40's thereabout.

I see, so following science and sound medicine, advocating for people to get
vaccinated so we can save lives, reduce hospitalizations and put this behind us,
is like being a Nazi. Is that what you just implied?

No, the way YOU and your ilk demand compliance with YOUR thoughts. No one
else's is valid.

You're confusing thoughts with science and fact. Like when some loon claims
that ~600K people in the US have not died from Covid, that the number is fake.
That is in fact pure BS.. So when someone puts forth that, or the lie that the
vaccines have not been tested, they are in fact, BS.


You trust the gov't too much. You do realize the gov't
controls the news?

ROFL. That's a good one. So Trump was controlling the news that he was
blaming the media for. Got it.

If they don't have a story the news media makes one up.

Simply not true. And how is it that we never saw you complaining about all
the lies, the total BS stories, that Trump made up, almost daily? Like US Steel
opening 7 new plants here? Total lie, but Trump kept repeating it. Or Trump's
lie about Google having 2500 engineers working on a Covid testing website?
The website was coming soon. Google said it was BS, no website ever emerged.
On the rare occasion when the media gets something factually wrong, they
correct it. Trump never did. And note another difference right here, I just gave
you a couple of good examples of fake news, llies, BS. You just post
ad hominem attacks.


Doesn't it make you pause for thought when the networks ALL have the same
stories using the same buzzword? Doesn't that seem strange?

No, because they are mostly covering the same big stories.



Do you listen to
opposing viewpoints?

Yes, if they are based in fact, not lies.


Why are you so emphatic about issues here?

Because the truth matters and democracies are lost when lying shysters prevail.


They won't
change anyone's mind.

That;s a pity.


People have free will to makes decisions for themselves.
Your opinions don't matter and shouting will only alienate them more. Do you
want me to make thoughts and decisions for you? I don't think so.

Apparently they matter to you, because here you are responding.




The way the gov't used to treat these incidents was quarantine the victims and
the public was free to go about their business.

What on earth are you advocating for now? You invoked Nazis to complain
about what is going on right now and now you're calling for quarantining people
with Covid? Good grief. We have a solution, a much better solution, one that
actually works. Get people vaccinated.


Now the gov't MAKES you follow
their orders, with police enforcement, which aren't scientifically proven. You
have been deprived of your rights without any basis. It's about power.

Rant on. 600K Americans dead and your convenience is more important.
What great achievement is it for a governor to have bars closed or at half
capacity? What does that "power" gain them? They are going to run on a
campaign of I restricted bars, I put limits on large crowds, re-elect me?
Beyond stupid.




All your postings here will not help the world. Why don't you go out and
volunteer at a vaccine clinic? Why not read to children? Go walk a dog at the
animal shelter. Think of something to get away from the computer. You may not
change the world but you will change someone's life.

I believe challenging lies and BS that endanger democracy and public health is
a vital issue. You brought up the 40s, what happened there when people did not
speak out in opposition?
