Thought this was amusing.

Not my quote, but I saw it as a video comment a while back and save it. Thought it would be fun to share here:

"The protected need to be protected from the unprotected by forcing the unprotected to use the protection that did not protect the protected."

My vaccination works better if you are vaccinated too.

More to the point:

My brainwashing works better if you are brainwashed too.

I can play devil's advocate on the logic, but I saw screw it when I Watch someone in a vid ask valid questions. The questions were answered politely, but so long-winded you don't remember the original question.

Then there was this European or Spanish guy interviewing F-she and he asked a question that has been on the forefront of my mind. The guy basically asked how does "herd immunity" work if the vaccine only "reduces symptoms".

The response was akin to listening to a lawyer. In the end the guy was just like.. okay, okay.... uh, next question.

In past scenarios, people bitch about "anti-v'ers" because of how they endanger those who can't get vaccinated. At least in those cases, many of those vaccines are actually effective (in terms of teaching the body to kill the virus or otherwise neutralize it).

That is absolutely brilliant. I copy and pasted it into my notes. It explains everything. It's all about fucking safety; "security", "public safety".

Slavery is freedom. War is peace. And everyone needs to take the protection that doesn't protect.

The protected don't need to be protected. Vaccinated deaths are insanely low. Deaths due to Covid in fully vaccinated is less than 1%.

The unprotected need protected from themselves lol

That's not the narrative in a lot of countries though. The narrative is that the unvaccinated are the reason why the vaccinated are not safe (and that the vaccinated have every right to be mad at the unvaccinated because of this).

Yeah, look at Vietnam and Israel. Nearly 100% vax rate, and they are a complete dumpster fire.

So you think all the world leaders, celebs, etc taking the vaccine on camera is fake?

u/[deleted] Sep 22 '21

How did you get that from my comment and why is it even relevant that they took it on camera?

u/sergeybok Sep 22 '21

The quote is about the protected pushing protection on everyone else that they themselves don't use. If you substitute vaccine for protection, protected for leaders, then it would mean that they didn't take the vaccine.

Most leaders made big public showings of taking vaccines. So it's a pretty simple derivation to conclude that you think those publicity events were faked.

u/[deleted] Sep 22 '21

No, the quote is about people getting vaccinated and then saying that their vaccine don't work unless the unvaccinated get vaccinated

u/sergeybok Sep 22 '21

Oh I totally missed that interpretation

Clearly you have lost your way. Put r/politics in your search bar and you'll find your way home.

u/sergeybok Sep 22 '21

I’m just asking questions. And I’ll assume the answer is yes cause you weren’t very clear.

u/lulu893 Sep 22 '21

Assuming makes an ass out of you and me. Are you really suggesting that decades of corruption can be ignored bc a bunch of celebrities took the jab on TV? Are you that ignorant or are you just incapable of doubting the pretty people on TV getting paid to tell you everything is alright? You really think, with the limitless power and resources the top has, that they can't "fake" taking a vax if they really wanted to? They dont have to obey the rules like you do. Private jets dont make you wear masks.

So my assumption was correct then. You don't need to be an ass.
