Not even close. It IS a personal choice. I took the damn vaccine, I still believe it is...and has to be...a personal choice. Am i being anti vax? After taking the damn vax?

I mean, yeah, so is walking up to mike tyson and calling him a pussy.

Having a choice doesn't mean there isn't a right and a wrong answer. Let's not pretend that not getting vaccinated has ANY merit. The right thing to do is to get vaccinated...objectively.

Not getting vaccinated is an immoral thing to do, it's bad for the economy, and it's bad for the health of the individual and his/her community. There's really not a good argument to not getting vaccinated.

All you can do is provide information and opportunity. Trying to force or mandate or shame people into it and calling them stupid is only going to fortify their resistance.

The fact that the overwhelming amount of evidence in support of vaccination has not fortified their belief that the vaccination is necessary but name calling fortifies their stance to not get vaccination means that they have chosen to resist no matter what.

I think the vast majority of people who answered "I am waiting for more info" vs "hell no, I will never do it" are the same groups that didn't support Trump in polling but ended up voting for him. Being too embarrassed about your decision to be truthful about it should tell you what a poor decision it is.

Or the Biden administration has spoken with them and now they're trying to do the right thing?

Good one

Isn't that what the Biden press secretary said at a press conference the other day?

The fact that the disease is killing Republicans in large numbers finally got their attention. Soon two legs will be good again and Trump will have invented vaccine.

Ain't that interesting how the US news reports our hospitals are "full of unvaxxed", yet the UK, Israel and much of Europe are reporting the exact opposite. US news is only designed to scare people.

The "exact opposite" would be full of fully vaxxed. The UK, Israel, and much of Europe are NOT reporting the "exact opposite" and you are a complete asshole for saying and believing it.
YOU are only designed to annoy people. That's something you probably take pride in succeeding at.

This may be what caused the confusion, but i don't know...

Nothing surprises me anymore.

They have run short of real outrage. Manufacturing outrage as always. Someone like Lobster won't bother to check.

One family member of mine mainlines MSNBC and is accordingly convinced we're all going to die.

Another family member of mine mainlines Fox and is accordingly convinced this is all a sinister plot for government control.

Fun times!

"Constitutional rights" to get on that airplane.

My boss and i were talking the other day about how she can identify which media network a person watches by asking them 3-5 simple questions about various current events.

She calls CNN the creative news network and fox the fake news network.

Don't forget how hard our Revolutionary soldiers fought to keep the airports out of the hands of the British.

Can't let them take over the airports! They'll land their ships there...wait a second....

Give me an economy plus seat or give me death!

I’ll take a bag of peanuts and a sparkling water, leave the can.

Didn’t Trump allude to the British taking our airports?
