    I keep saying that I support vaccine mandates in AES countries, this is not an anti-vaxx stance and I don’t know how much clearer I can make it. After the revolution we need to put anti-vaxxers in reeducation camps and their children should be moved to safer homes. What I don’t support is giving our current ruling class even more power than they already have over our bodies. They must be frustrated at every turn, because any power we give them will be used to advance their own class interests even further.

    The fact that there is already a framework where the government can mandate medical treatment for prisoners is bad, and expanding it to everyone isn’t really better. Any framework that disregards the Helsinki declaration will inevitably lead to more and more exceptions, because medical ethics restrain a predatory ruling class that salivates at the chance to pump our bodies with whatever they want. Even now, those exemptions you list are the prelude to what will be done to the rest of us soon enough.

    Vaccines are extremely safe, but they wouldn’t stop at vaccines. They never did before.
