Unpopular opinion: Anyone who refused the COVID vaccine should be banned from getting this.

[–] CosmicCleric@lemmy.world 43 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Honestly asking, why even bring this up? What does this have to do with the topic of the post?

All you do is start an argument and divert away from the topic that was supposed to be discussed.

Just spiteful. And ironic if you really want to claim to care about public health

You don't want to get a vaccine to help others + yourself, you shouldn't be allowed to "believe in science" when it benefits you and only you.

Such a non-sequitur answer. And for the record, I'm fully vaccinated.

Go somewhere else to talk about your favorite vaccine. Don't DERAIL this conversation about a completely different vaccine.

Don’t DERAIL this conversation about a completely different vaccine.

I was replying to a question. Please follow the context thread, or go away.

Here's what you said, context wise ...

Unpopular opinion: Anyone who refused the COVID vaccine should be banned from getting this.

You weren't responding to a question, you were just offering your own opinion, an opinion that was different from the topic and the context of the conversation being discussed, and hence my reply to you, calling you out for it.

You're being intellectually dishonest.

[–] Polar@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ya, I am allowed to post my opinion. I don't think people who refuse a vaccine that can help save others should be allowed to receive a vaccine that benefits only them.

If you're upset, you're part of the problem. Not my fault. If you don't want to see my comments, which I am free to post, block me.

In fact, don't worry about it. I will block you, because your reply is insane. Literally complaining to me because I posted my opinion, and then calling me intellectually dishonest. Nutters.

[–] CosmicCleric@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

Ya, I am allowed to post my opinion.

No one says you're not. The only point I was making is you're posting your opinion in the wrong place and you're 'muddying the waters' of the conversation.

That point was said straightforward to you, but you chose to ignore it and try to move the goal posts onto something else.

If you’re upset, you’re part of the problem. Not my fault.

I'm not upset at all, I was just asking a question, why are you expressing an opinion that doesn't match the conversation being had and that you know would be inflammatory and pollute the conversation.

You keep trying to warp the meaning of my initial critique of your initial opinion into something else to win an Internet argument.

You continue to be intellectually dishonest.

People are saying it causes 5g.

[–] hihellobyeoh@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Can I get it, I want strong signal at all times.

[–] RiikkaTheIcePrincess@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

6g comes out, carriers push everyone to get new 6g phones as the 5g networks get worked over. Bunch of vaxxers just walking around like "Nah, mine's fine. Why spend hundreds on a new one? 🤷" AT&T and Samsung suddenly sponsoring research to undo vaccinations and turn the frogs hetero 🤣

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You’re going to need a booster every year to continue getting good reception or more g’s

[Punny jokeness] Now that I think about it, isn't there a limit to how many g's a human body can handle? We're all gonna have to train like fighter pilots or switch our cell network naming scheme 🤔

Not that i necessarily support this policy, but to the people who are acting all offended at the idea you might be cut off from future scientific advances because of you're hurting the public good ("Consequences? For my actions?!"): You could just get the vaccine.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago

Just make it a combination shot. Then they can hit the red button... or not!

[–] Zacryon@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

Unpopular? O.o
