You can't tell me that's just a coincidence

Two drama queens doing drama.

I feel bad for people that get chills and feel sick from the vaccine. Most probably wouldn't have struggled with a coronavirus.

Making a tik tok to shame/blame/feint sympathy is some sad virtue signaling though.

Plus dem eyebrows.
I am very confused by your take and what you got out of that... And that's ok.

I'm confused by people making tik tok to shame people for life choices.
+ I don't think either of those women are being sincere, they are social media whoring.

Basically I don't laugh at people who have bad temporary or permanent vaccine reactions and I don't laugh or shame those who aren't vaxxed and get corona.

But then again I know what thread I am posting in...

TLDR...Kathyjs623's I told you so is pretty lame

Ok. That makes more sense.

I'll expand on my thoughts.

I think there are a shit load of people that get very irritated, frustrated, with the overt anti-vaxxers when they end up needing help and run to the same people that they didn't trust days before.

The nurse ending it with hoping that the lady ends up ok and getting the help she needs is where a lot of us are.

I don't want anyone to die because of their choices but if you're going to go defiantly, aggressively, against the grain... Then expect a massive amount of "I told you so" if it bites you in the ass. I still don't wish permanent harm. But I may enjoy the rough awakening.

If you don't want to get the vaccine then I'm fine with it. I think that you should but it's your call.

It's not until someone starts screaming from the mountaintops that the people choosing to be vaccinated are sheep and going to die and mark of the beast and all of the other nonsense do I start to hold it against them. Because that's not healthy for anything. It also leads to people completely discounting any benefits that may* be derived from treatments like ivermectin and write it off as strictly a horse dewormer.

Healthy skepticism is good. Obtuse, obnoxious, ignorance is not regardless of from where it's coming. It's unproductive and just leads to more polarization where it's not needed.

I firmly believe that the massive government overreach wouldn't be needed if we still had the ability to act with reason and a communal responsibility. Tribalism has ruined that and in many/most cases it's coming from the top down.

TLDR: If you act like a cunt, don't be surprised when otherwise decent people enjoy watching you fall.

Good post Will...Reading ya loud and clear


I personally know a few people(4) who have had serious changes in their health post vaccine, older folks and it is pretty sad. One lady's arthritis went from mild to severe in a week, hard to watch(can't really walk now). I know a 57 year old guy in bend oregon who developed bells palsy two days after(for the second time in his life). A man who had a stroke one week after. My father now has a brand new gnarly skin rash that flares up every couple days(he is a doctor and didn't wanna make that connection, but he has eliminated most other options and now is fairly confident his body reacted poorly). Needless to say these folks aren't interested in a booster and I am not gonna shame them if they get covid or another virus and are hospitalized or worse in the future.

So I am just staying out of the shame game. Ugly all around IMO.

Best part of the USA is freedom of choice, and I am not gonna advocate or tell somebody how to live their life.

The lady in that video is very fat it seems, that was her choice. Traded mouth pleasure for health. To me that is the real lesson to take from the Rona Era, get healthy if possible.
