  • @AgreeableLandscape@lemmy.ml My feed today has been 1:5 posts about antivax, and almost every thread has had some sort of election denialism.

    If we don’t take a stand now we’re going to be the next Voat/Gab/what have you. I came here because I was promised Leftists, not liberals. Take a stand and do something about this before it becomes a rapidly dying community.

    Also, in re: “We can’t disprove it”, yeah no shit: you can’t disprove anything. The burden is on the person making the claim, not the person refuting it. But keep shifting that burden to logical impossibility. If that’s the moderation view here, you just solidified lemmy’s future content.








  • I know, about the leftist correction, I was making a commentary on how liberal it is to allow an Anti-vaxx mandate discussion as if it’s not a thinly cloaked excuse to legitimize sharing a substantial amount of vaccine misinformaiton.

    I think when we start allowing bad-faith efforts to hide worse things we open the door for all of the same sad excuses that lead to the failings of voat, mewe, gab, and literally everything else that started to get away from that shit, and it just fills on in anyway.




  • Listen up homie, I have a metabolic myopathy that causes negative vaccine reactions, and can just straight randomly throw my body into rhabdo. Yea, medicine can kill people: the risk analysis is what you’re looking at. The vaccine makes incidence of illness less bad, and often has fewer negative impacts for healthy individuals with fewer risks for society at large.

    You know what has killed more people than the COVID Vaccine? And more than it probably ever will?

    COVID.


  • Vaccine limits transmissibility of the virus by reducing viral load; imagine being so ignorant you think that a vaccine is a 100% catch all. The Non-vaccinated should get a UBI like everyone else should, they should also be staying home to reduce risk to themselves and others (limiting exposure to a virus is just a good idea in general: the vaccinated should do it to). The fact that capitalism doesn’t let them stay home and wallow in their own ignorance is not my problem. I never called for the sanctioning or removal of the unvaccinated from society.
