Sophie Scholl

Just talked with a nurse in my apartment building who is super anti-vax. "We should just see what happens without vaccines! What's the harm?" Just... wow. I'm pretty sure she was raised in a super religious household, but like... my god. The rot is so deep in this country.  :bleeding:
"Everything that brought you here -- all the things that made you a prisoner of past sins -- they are gone. Forever and for good. So let the past go... and live."

"Somebody, after all, had to make a start. What we wrote and said is also believed by many others. They just don't dare express themselves as we did."

And oblivious to the thousands of (pretty bad) years of human history where we did see that...

I even mentioned that. She was like, "Well, I didn't live through it so I don't know."  :wacko:

The Minsky Moment

Is halving life expectancy considered to be harmful among religious Christians or is it a good thing because people get to heaven faster?  If the latter, she is on the right track.
We have, accordingly, always had plenty of excellent lawyers, though we often had to do without even tolerable administrators, and seen destined to endure the inconvenience of hereafter doing without any constructive statesmen at all.

Anti-Vaxxers really bother me.  Conspiracies are all fun and games when it is black helicopters or celebrities eating people, but lots of people can die if they don't take vaccines.  This is really serious.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Saw in AP that Florida vows to be the first state to repeal child vaccination mandates.

Whoever she's treating should find a different nurse, before the killing starts

Quote"People have a right to make their own decisions, informed decisions," Ladapo, who has frequently clashed with the medical establishment, said at a news conference in Valrico. "They don't have the right to tell you what to put in your body. Take it away from them."

So, abortion legalized? :P

... How hasn't she jumped off a bridge or something already?

Oh sureeee. THEY say I'll die because of "gravity". But I've never done it.

I wonder if we will see a tightening up of travel restrictions on yanks. Demand they have vaccine certificates before bringing their infected arses over.

I think there are some books about the world without vaccines.

What bothers me is the supremacy some anti-vaxxers display. "I'm healthy, so if I get sick it's someone else's fault!" and "If someone (not me!) gets sick it's because they're not strong enough/not living/eating right". Saw plenty of that during Covid.

There is a strong, almost solipsistic, strand to the way these people seem to view the world.
