The vaccination question is simple:
Is the government allowed to dictate medical intervention?
@b6hydra there are already signs that the vaccines might be selecting for more virulent and transmissible strains of the virus.
value judgements on whether people should be allowed to harm themselves should be based on science, not political expediency.
particularly when the topic of conversation is violation of human rights
my body, my choice, no?
@skells Usually I'd agree with 'my body, my choice'. But this is a virus which affects other people too... Not sure if that's still 100% a 'my body, my choice' case.
Just something to ponder about philosophically. I know my government is not going to enforce vaccination, but a lot of people in my country are willing to vaccinate so it's thankfully not a terribly huge point of discussion here.

The greater good would beserved equally well if everyone who wanted to worse hazmat suits actually. If you think about it it still offers 100% protection for everyone in the group, so the "greater good" of vaccination is still served. Plus it has the added benefit of allowing people personal freedom and opt out without disrupting the aforementioned positive effect... Therefore it would be an even greater good because you get personal freedom on top of preventing the virus.
Well what is the greater good of vaccination? Remember none of the current vaccines could reach herd immunity even with 100% adoption. Also recall that being vaccinated does not stop you from transmitting it.
People dont die is the only greater good here, people who want to be protected can be by taking the vaccine and then they wont die, thats really the only greater good.
Ergo, by not making vaccines mandatory you can still get all the safety of a vaccine by taking the vaccine, and people not taking the vaccine in no way disrupts the "good" you get out of it, but it adds another level of "good" which is personal freedom. So not requiring vaccines produces a greater good than requiring it.
At the time I'm sure forced vaccinations would have been unthinkable really considering the sentiments of the period.
totally different. Most of the things like eugenics or force lobotomies or any of the many forced procedures all centered more around racism or sexism. You wont find many examples of people getting away with that on "respectable" white males.
No, dont put words in my mought.. I was explicitly talking about the USA, and much of what you just said doesnt apply to the USA. What examples we have tended to be very much limited to racism and sexism in the US thankfully.
>You wont find many examples of people getting away with that on "respectable" white males.
wtf do you imply with this retard?
Try reading, I just explained to you what I implied.. I was saying that phrase specifically in reference to the USA
You are arguing against a ghost of a thing I never said...
When did i ever claim they wont come back or that they arent an issue?
in response to me bring up that forced vaccination by the state isn't unthinkable because forced sterilization happened(something that happened up into the 70s).
>You: totally different.
>When did i ever claim they wont come back or that they arent an issue?
I'm telling you it isn't different and is following the same logic. White lab coats taking your autonomy to make informed decisions away and deciding you don't get a choice.
side note: Jacobson v Massachusetts is still president.

We can disagree on if its "different" or not, thats fine, and we do... not the same as me telling you that it could never happen however.

@DokiDoe @icedquinn @b6hydra @freemo @trinsec wtf is wrong with you
You start by ignoring the initial points by diverting to muh racism so its different. Ignoring the whole argument about autonomy being taken away in the past and can be done so again in america. I gave other examples not rooted in explicit racism but biological socialism(distinct from Nazism). The reason I linked CRT in medicine, is CRT was influenced by that. It branches in a different way.
The reason I muted you last time and will continue to now, you say nothing of value.
you're annoying and a waste of time.
Cool story bro.. next time try muting without all the static, save yourself some time.
>me: it wasn't that long ago we forced people to steralize
>freemon: We can disagree on if its "different"
>no, here is example x, y z in history of when we did this
>When did i ever claim they wont come back or that they arent an issue?
>points to : We can disagree on if its "different"
>We can disagree on if its "different"
>annoying points to crt in medicine aimed at equity
tl;dr annoyed at retard
@DokiDoe @icedquinn @b6hydra @freemo @trinsec i think freemos point was that, in general,
vaccination =/= eugenics
I had several points along the way... I just dont think doki has much interest in understanding what anyones points are, he just wants to start meta-arguments and drama. I stopped listening once I realized that, but he just keeps going with his little triggered rant.... Lets hope he actually muted me like he promised.
