"any moment now anyone who got the vax is gonna flop over and start foaming at the mouth, I heard it on the My Pillow Guy show."
I can't decide which is more depressing, people stupid enough to believe the shit, or the absurd lack of credibility their sources provide - fucking rubes and idiotic liars deserve each other I guess.
When you point out its been a long time, and you're fine, so they say, "Give it 10 more years" lmao wtf just shut up and crawl back under your rock you science denying turnips
And then when you die in 50 years after a long and healthy life: "I told you so!"
Meanwhile virtually every possible (and infrequent) side-effect of the vaccine is also a possible (and frequent) side-effect of COVID.
Like, cardiac issues are possible, very rare side effects of the vaccine. Cardiac issues are common side effects of getting COVID. So, even if you're really worried about one specific side-effect of the vaccine like pulmonary embolism -- guess what, you're much more likely to have one if you don't get the vaccine because then you're much more likely to get it as a COVID side-effect.
I think I'd survive covid decently but the long covid some people ended up with sounds horrifying. Like the people that have had their sense of taste all fucky for years. I love food too much to take that risk. Also, I'd never forgive myself if I found out I carried it around and potentially gave it to others that might not survive it. A few little shots and a little mask are really nothing compared to potentially killing someone's memaw. It takes so little effort to just not catch it or spread it around people are ridiculous.
If the government wanted to kill people, they'd kill those who refused to comply.
So the thing that would make more sense, is that the COVID vaccine was an antidote, and the government was going to release a toxic gas to kill everyone who didn't take it.
But nah, their argument is that the government is killing those who comply. Ya, because that makes sense.
Someone straight up told me its because the elites only want those they can respect to survive.
It's a wierd form of hating them but desperately wanting their approval. I think they all just have daddy issues that aren't the kinky fun kind.
That's one of the things that bugs me about conspiracy theories. So many of them don't even have a point.
How can so many be people be so wrapped up in conspiracism, but never once have the though, "Oh, wait, why would anyone do this? It'd be pointless."
