    While I’m all for vaccination including covid vaccines, we would not have the distrust towards the mega pharmaceutical companies if they were not so untrustworthy. They sold their trust for profits a long time ago.

      Do you trust automakers? What about Apple or Google? How do you feel about GMOs in food? I bet you still eat, have a smartphone and drive. I get that it is hard to trust megacorps and industries thst have the populace captive, yet fear of a vaccine is what illicits special irrational behavior in people.

        In the US I don’t trust the phone and big tech companies to not sell my data, i dont trust the automobile industry to not lobby aganst good public transportation, and i don’t trust mega pharma to not SKU the test results when they could can away with it. I dont trust any of the above to not Astroturf, buy off ftc officials or anything if they are in a position to get away with it. Perhaps im just bitter because i was prescribed an absurd amount of opioids as a 16 year old. They were pushed so hard they told us it was safe they blantently lie

      We didn’t trust their business practices, or that they were treating not curing people (which comes from r&d startups anyway). Pfizer overcharges diabetics and shit, we never thought they put 5g chips in your DNA or whatever tf these nut jobs think. This is not an extension of corporate mistrust, it’s anti science luddites keeping the population uneducated and sickly.

      I might be more cynical if they weren’t being monitored by literally every government health agency on the planet.
