    I dont have to prove to anyone that its dangerous. I've made a conscious choice not to take it
    What a strange postion to take...:confused:

    You can prove that it's dangerous, but you decide not to?

    Honestly it sounds more like you can't show it's dangerous.

    See my previous post about the rushed swine flu vaccine after everyone was told it was safe
    Sure. So what percentage of people who took the vaccine suffered this side effect?

    So you don't know what the rate of the side effects. That's ok. It's very easy to find out.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandemrix
    Pandemrix was found to be associated with narcolepsy from observational studies, increasing the risk of narcolepsy by 5-14 times in children and 2-7 times in adults. The increased risk of narcolepsy due to vaccination was 1 in 18400 or 0.005%.[5]


    Again, the risk of dying from covid (leaving aside other potential side effects) is between 1% and 2%.
    The danger of dying from covid is 200 times greater than this risk.
    Yet again you are telling us that covid isn't something to worry about.

    Why are you more afraid of something that has a lesser chance of happening to you?

    it seems only the desperate and needy will take it anyway

    Just spoke to my dad who is approaching 80 and still has his wits about him telling me he's glad he's still fully aware and not in a home as he would be afraid of someone sticking a needle in him without his consent

    No one wants a needle stuck in them "without consent". If someone chooses to get the vaccine down the line they can, it's advisable for older people as it should be much safer than risking contracting the virus.

    so how would you feel if they made it mandatory to take the vaccine here?
    Whats your opinion on that?

    Implement a policy of No vaccine, no benefits
    You lose your job - no benefits unless you take the vaccine
    You are at pensionable age - no vaccine, no pension

    Sorry, you've just dodged the question entirely.

    You brought up the idea that the swine flu vaccine caused narcolepsy as a reason to be afraid of the covid vaccine.

    However, after you admitted to not knowing the percentage of cases, we see that it is far less than the chances of dying due to covid.
    Please address this.

    Why should we worry about the possible side effects of the vaccine more than covid when the dangers you are worried about are less likely to happen than dying from covid?

    Hasn't happened before, but if they did, there would have to be a critical reason behind, e.g. a highly dangerous strain of the disease with a much higher fatality rate.

    There may be isolated cases where a particular e.g. hospital might require certain staff to be vaccinated
    Implement a policy of No vaccine, no benefits
    You lose your job - no benefits unless you take the vaccine
    You are at pensionable age - no vaccine, no pension

    Unlikely.

    Your views seem to be constantly paranoid of all this, like all of this is some sort of "trick". It's a global pandemic of a highly infectious disease, we're taking measures to curb it, there's no "trick" or big exciting conspiracy going on.

    Nothing is impossible. Australia has a "no jab, no pay" rule whereby if parents refuse certain vaccinations for their kids they won't receive certain child welfare payments. Over 80% of Australians support that particular policy.

    And again you're running away from the question entirely.

    I think this is because you have no answer.

    You have no rational reason to fear the vaccine more than covid.
    Your belief is entirely irrational and based on faulty arguments and incorrect information.

    Also, if your child's vaccines aren't up to date, plenty of creches refuse children who don't have up to date vaccines. It's done for health and safety reasons and not unreasonable. In this case, I suspect restricted travel to certain destinations which is pretty fair as many countries wouldn't be okay with such travellers and the risk they pose. The other is probably sports events and concerts. This will likely outrage antivaxxers but none of these things are a right and tend to be luxuries.

    Interesting that the poster won't actually say what they think about the hpv and mmr vaccines....

    Won't happen in Ireland but I wish it did.

    If we're still in lockdown this time next year it'll be because of people like you.

    I never said it did. I said that the title does. Owning nothing means no private property.

    And I'm speculating, based on WEF choosing to retweet a link to the article a couple of months before the Great Reset, that they are going to propose abolishing private property. Schwab has said that there are going to be monumental changes. Abolishing private property would certainly be monumental.

    You're connecting the dots. They might not be the correct dots...or even in the correct order. Go ahead though.

    Electricity shortages. What a surprise. Food shortages next.

    I guess electricity shortages are just another coincidence to add to the long list. Build back better Biden (or is that Trudeau? Or Johnson? Or whomever else just happens to be saying it this week) did warn of a dark winter. Come to think of it, so did Johnson, Sanchéz in Spain, and Merkel. All the same words. Another coincidence.

    Is it a coincidence that Fodla is an anagram of a famous German fella? Probably. Means nothing.

    It's just another buzzword. They likely have no idea what Blockchain is.

    No issue with QR Codes
    Blockchain- well if you read up on it you will find out
    It’s relatively new technology and I have nothing against it. Did I say I had an issue with it?
    Ever heard of bitcoin? That’s one example and probably the most common use of blockchain

    But why would think of Blockchain? Why would an immutable dataset be essential to this?

    Did anyone hear of the EMPCOE conspiracy? I was listening to Mick West's podcast and his guest had a boyfriend who really bought into it. It seems to have been floating around for a while and a big event was promised by it's promoters on a few occasions. Some of the language sounded familiar to the great reset.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,220 ✭✭✭✭Lex Luthor


    on the subject of QR codes, they will become more & more into society when people start making payments
    Revolut have yet to roll it out on their app but its coming
    payments will all become digital as people migrate their legacy bank accounts over to digital wallets when money as we know it will be in a digital format
    it will make payments easier and frictionless and you will be able to transfer money around the world in seconds rather than days

    I had a scan of the thread on reddit and it is as nuts as I thought it would be.

    Its pretty much the payment de jour in China.
    Its a cheaper safer way to pay.

    ya China are miles ahead of everyone else in implementing their digital yuan

    ECB are working on the EUR
    Many other central banks too

    States are way behind

    The only thing in China with their credit system is that they control everyones wallets so if their social credit score drops they can basically limit how much they can spend on a daily basis until they start behaving themselves again
