That being said, true anti-vaxxers treating anti-vax like it's a word they don't want to be associated with is kind of hilarious.
Do you consider me a "true anti-vaxxer"? Not sure what ^^^ that sentence has to do with anything I have posted, this entire thread is about Covid and the Vaccines for Covid...I don't think there has been much discussion of other vaccines.

I assume you are aware at the many ways that definition has/is/and will be changing?

I think it has gained multiple new definitions in the last 18 months.

I just don't like to label people(all people, has nothing to do with me) just so I can put them into a group, that does discussion a disservice. Their position may be much more nuanced and complicated than a simple label allows.

People harassing others over medical choices is never something I support.

I've never heard you state a firm position on vaccination so I have no idea if you're an anti-vaxxer.

Ok, got it.
I have had plenty of vaccines FYI.
I respect everyone's personal choice to eat/drink/inject whatever they want into their body.

Just not interested in this one at this time.

My whole point was the definitions are changing so simply dropping the term anti-vax isn't really clear at all nowadays.

To rational people anti-vax is someone who is anti vaccination. It's pretty straightforward. The superlative explanations like "Someone who opposes vaccine mandates" is ridiculous and everyone but the most die hard realizes that.

Well when you called them anti-vax you didn't clarify which vaccine they were anti, or if they were anti any vaccine...So pardon me for asking for clarity.
Plenty of people I considered rational have now started using such superlative explanations and definitions since covid vaccination became the thing.

Using a clear definition/label isn't too much to ask, I don't require it for conversation but it helps keep the communication crystal clear.


I agree with you that harassing people going into treatment or a clinic is bullshit.
That is the bottom line and what got us started on this exchange.

I don't really know anything about her other than stuff posted here.

Like DEWs? Those indeed exist, there is video of them as military tech on battleships. Badass. Haven't seen on on a satellite yet, but I wouldn't be surprised.
I don't think they are owned by only one religious entity though, that sounds like some more divide and conquer.

Shit, I am old enough to remember some sort of space laser grid Reagan or somebody was talking about to shoot down the nukes that were gonna be coming from Russia. Not sure who was gonna own those lasers lol.

The latest one is a South African version of nostradamus who predicted all of this. And the Russians and Chinese will attack shortly. But Germany has the space laser tech to save themselves.

US has tried to get it by spies.

We get wiped out but America wins. Just.

Check it out. You'll love it. He predicted the 3rd world war about now.

SA version of nostradamus. Google it.

You're already acknowledged that you knew what we were talking about, and when you first asked for clarification it was quoting a post in which I discussed covid protestors holding "vaccine are poison" signs.

That was what got it started, but somewhere along the way you decided to try to obfuscate whether or not people protesting vaccinations are anti-vax.

I think we have said enough
I get it, you want to ignore my point

Covid vaccine protest does not equal all vaccine protest in my world

Anti covid vax can be a term...it truly is that simple, that is my only point

No one said that was the case. As I've already pointed out, you weren't confused as to what the topic was. You just decided to introduce a new, irrelevant topic.

Lol. I never had you pegged for a "words hurt" type of guy.

This feels like a weird twist on Black Lives Matter vs All Lives Matter.

It's bizarre. I've seen the shift happening on social media where everyone knows the topic being discussed and someone says "No, no. I'm not anti-vax. I'm just anti-covid vax." Yeah, we know motherfucker. No one was talking about measles.
