If they followed their own logic they'd do the same thing for the seasonal flu vaccine, but they never talk about that.
One of my co-workers is one of those, "you're killing grandma if you don't get the Covid vaccine" types. He's 34 and he's never gotten the seasonal flu vaccine.
"you're killing grandma if you don't get the Covid vaccine"
"the vaccine might kill grandma"
"it's a small risk to take to return to normal!"
If that happens I hope people are forced to lose weight "for the public good" too.
Yes, except for the extra load placed on healthcare systems from fat people which is paid for by tax money stolen (or extorted) from me or is paid though some private system in which it would also cost me money.
Isn't that why we did all this Kung Flu shit? "To prevent healthcare from collapse"? You butter golems people do that too with your colossal bulk destroying your bodies requiring modern medicine to keep you alive with machines to breathe and insulin to keep you from rotting away.
We all know it'll only apply for things Dems find useful and their voters are afraid of. As being anti-fat would hurt their money siphoning and piss off their voters, it'll never happen.
Behind every double standard is a single standard. Look at covid-19 restrictions.
Mass gathering to promote leftist ideology? Critically important, and subsequently permitted. Even encouraged.
Small gathering to observe your Christian faith, which is the central pillar of your entire worldview? Silly superstitious nonsense, don't bring that bullshit into this serious healthcare crisis.
Your speech is violence, their violence is speech. Your politics are unimportant, their politics are human rights. It's all who/whom, which is unsurprising given the primary of identity politics on the left.
They already have a solution to your objection, but I don't think you're going to like it.
lol yeah more tax rather making people pay for what they use
Only because people are not as scared of the seasonal flu, so that would evoke more outrage.
Tell them seasonal flu killed 30K yearly on average; 80K when H1N1 happened. Then tell them they're selfish human beings for not caring about 30K people dying every year.
I mean they don't really care. It's tribal moral signalling. The "good people" hate the jew...wait...I mean hate the protestant...no wait...hate the soiux...wait no sorry having trouble remember which tribe we're supposed to hate...hate the green bay packer...wait...
Well I can't keep straight which "other tribe" / "outgroup" it is this time, but their emotions are based on hating the other group and their words are simply rationalizations towards that goal.
They don't care about killing people when they see those people in the "out" group.
This comment is absurdly reductive. It's insane to suggest that no tribe of people has ever had legitimate reason to hate, dislike, or oppose another tribe of people.
The media is already putting out the idea that we should all wear masks every winter from now on to stop the spread of the flu. I wouldn't be surprised if they put out ads that essentially say you're a terrible person if you don't get the flu shot.
