I actually did not get the COVID vaccine because I'm young and healthy enough that I didn't think it mattered.
I also did not think it was liquid poison that would turn the frogs gay, though, or that it has microchips from Bill Gates in it, or that my risk of myocarditis would be higher than the risks associated with COVID.
My girlfriend got vaccinated. I did not. We both got COVID in December thanks to a fucking cruise. We got equally sick, because her older vaccine did jack shit against the new Omicron variant, and she hadn't gotten the updated booster made for Omicron.
I highly recommended that my elderly grandparents get vaccinated, though. They also got COVID in December. However, I immediately told them to go out and get Paxlovid. They told me the vaxx would be enough to protect them, and I said no, that's wrong, you need to get meds, so they did, and the meds helped them immensely.
The world is not black and white. I'm a reasonable person who doesn't believe the world is a giant conspiracy. I was skeptical of the wild claims made exaggerating the importance of the vaccines outside of high risk populations, and I (and many others) was proven right. But I also don't believe the crazy anti-vaxx shit that the vaccine isn't effective and doesn't save the lives of old people and people with high risk. It absolutely does. This has been proven over and over, and is super clear in the data. The only caveat to this is that "anigenic original sin" means that in limited circumstances the vaccine will not help, for example, the original vaccine is basically worthless at this point against Omicron. However, newer vaccines addressed this.
Because you're such a reasonable person and all those idiots didn't get it so their pet frog wouldn't turn gay from 'shedding'. "Whatever makes the 'bad guys' dumber than how they feel about themselves" -- you're doing the exact thing I said you would. Your whole post is a caricature of anti-mRNA and antivaxxers in general to make yourself feel better in comparison.
If you want to salvage your image as a reasonable person, go on and tell us why actual reasonable people didn't get the mRNA shots. It doesn't seem like you even know why at-the-time informed people chose not to get it. If we take you at your word, you only didn't get it out of indifference.
