      Sick children aren’t the enemy

        I’m not talking about the kids, I’m talking about the parents, the same type of people who want me to be locked up in a camp because i need antidepressants to function. The same people who want to ban vaccines, execute the gays, deport my lawyer sister in law (while cheering the release of felons that stormed the capital).

        The only way these people can possibly empathize with actual human beings, is to hurt.

          Not at the expense of letting kids die.

            What would you have us do? Take the kids away?

            Do you know what the foster system is like in Texas?

            Those kids are better off with measles. I wish I was kidding.

            Way more kids will die if these people ban all vaccines. See the measles outbreak this post is about.

      These parties are geared at gathering children together to spread measles amongst the children. The parents arranging it are likely vaccinated, so the harm is focused on the kids. You’re suggesting that these kids should get sick and possibly die to spite your enemies.

      Not to mention that vaccines are only 97% effective, so spread to vaccinated people is likely. https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vpd/mmr/public/index.html

      Add to that the fact that measles can also essentially reset the immune system making people lose the effectiveness of vaccines for other diseases. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20211112-the-people-with-immune-amnesia

      But, that’s all ok just to spite your enemies? Innocent children should be subjected to measles and the general public should be endangered?

        … And you just know that as soon as it spreads to a single vaccinated person, that will be “proof” that vaccines don’t work!

        1000 unvaccinated could die, but as soon as 1 vaccinated person spends a week in a hospital with it before going home w/ minimal issues, they have their “irrefutable proof!”

      Yeah, let’s do nothing and let the children of people we don’t like die. And in the meantime, let’s put other particularly vulnerable - like the immunocompromised - at risk. But we’ll sure show a handful of people how right we were the whole time.

      You might want to rethink your moral compass.

      Sometimes, the best you can do is explain a bad decision when you see it. The people who really want to do it will ignore you. The hope is to get the people on the fence to not do it. You won’t get them all, but if it saves even one child, it’s worth it.

        This goes way beyond “people i don’t like”. These people are stupid, evil or both. People who want me executed because I like Dick. People who want to ban vaccines, so other people’s kids will suffer. People who want me in a work camp because I need antidepressants to function. People who are raising those kids to believe the same stupid, evil shit that they’ve bought into, belief that others should suffer, because reasons.

          Now imagine people exactly like you, except they’re also immunocompromised or kids of these shitheads with no legal right to make their own healthcare decisions, seeing you say ‘just die to punish people we both hate lol’

          Exercise your empathy or you become a conservative. If nothing else exercise basic self preservation: most vaccines need 90%+ population uptake to work.
