I have no problem at all with corporations making profits by providing a product that people want, when it cost a lot of money to develop it in the first place. What I don’t like is certain people in government deciding to spend more of my money, on more and more of this product, and trying to force us to accept it, when many people have decided they’ve had enough.
I got my two jabs, and maybe they helped me to survive when I still got covid afterwards, but that’s enough. I don’t feel like I need any more, and there’s no evidence to show me that getting another jab would help anyone else besides (maybe) me, so why does anyone else care whether I get it or not?

If people want boosters, they can get them, but I don’t need the government forcing me to eat another meal when I’m not hungry, and no one else will starve if I choose not to eat.

Now they’re trying to convince me that even if I don’t die from covid, even if I don’t get sick, it might shrink my penis, so I’d better get another booster shot to keep covid away, even though the vaccines clearly don’t do that.

COVID-19 can shrink your dink! AND CAUSE SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION. Sexual dysfunction in women as well.

If this symptom had been known at the beginning of this shit show EVERYONE would have been vaxxed and this would be over.

Ahem.... I'm vazzed and enjoy and maintain full width girth and performance, however diminished at my age. Lol

It appears the moronic variant has kicked in. The only thing diminished in your case seems to be your brain capacity. Have some more coolaid man!!

And yes those vaccinated fair much better than those not. This is a virus that mutates and is always one step ahead of science so new discoveries about it evolve constantly.

Canada's best soccer player who plays for Bayern Munich had heart muscle problems after a mild case of covid and will miss world cup qualifying games. Young top of physical fitness. Conspiracy? Is he in on the lies?

And I wouldn't really laugh at people gasping as they die. I was merely pointing out a website that points out the shit they spew until they get fucked up by a real deadly disease. Read their families heartbreaking comments when they realize that they they are the ones that have been lied to.

Good stuff.

I'm not saying the virus is fake, I'm saying they've lied about a lot of it, all along the way.

The reaction to the virus has probably done more harm to everyone than the virus itself.

Just remember, they've been talking about 'hospitalizations' for two years. Only now are they coming out and clarifying people being admitted 'with' Covid as opposed to 'because of' Covid. So yes, a lot of it is simply propaganda.

CDC also recently said that 75% of the Covid deaths are of people with 4 or more comorbidities. Only recently.

So yes, they've been misleading with the data from the beginning, and are only now starting to be a bit more honest.

And are these forced lockdowns working? You just have to look at their data to realize whatever they're doing is obviously not working. Look at Australia. Have they been successful and stopping the spread with their draconian lockdowns?

All I can say is start watching the Great Pivot happen. What were conspiracies in the past and banned from saying on most platforms are only now considered facts. This trend will continue and become more obvious.

I'm all about personal choice, so if people want to take 20 boosters, I have no issue, but people should at least be aware that what we've been told in the past as facts might become obviously false later on, so it's worth really thinking about how much you trust these governments and billion dollar companies.

Look what they're now saying about numerous boosters:

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles ... m-ema-says

You wouldn't have read that article a year ago.

And speaking of the Great Pivot, here's the AP telling journalists on how they want them to start changing the way they report on the data:

Omicron wave prompts media to rethink which data to report

https://apnews.com/article/omicron-chan ... 6bed9e9c76

And another recent article, from the BBC, talking about the data and how they probably should have been reporting deaths 'with Covid' vs 'from Covid':

What’s really going on with Covid deaths data?

https://www.bbc.com/news/health-60000391

So yes, what was considered by some to be conspiracy theories that you were banned from saying on most social media platforms for the past 2 years is now accepted as truth. What else will come to light soon?

And tell me if you don't find this to go against all logic. Places like California have fired all their healthy unvaccinated workers, and now they're so short staffed that they're actually telling their Covid infected staff to come back and work while they're still infected:

Health care workers are panicked as desperate hospitals ask infected staff to return

"Hospitals and long-term care facilities are so short staffed that many are compelling Covid-positive doctors and nurses to return to work, arguing that bringing back asymptomatic or even symptomatic staff is the only way they can keep their doors open amid a spike in hospitalizations."

https://www.politico.com/news/2022/01/1 ... age-526842

Think about that. Hospitals would rather have sick, Covid infected staff working at the hospital rather than having perfectly healthy, unvaccinated staff working. Nobody who's not brainwashed would say that makes any sense, but that's what they're doing, lol. That's something we should only be reading in the Babylon Bee or some other satirical paper. Half the world believes that only anti-vaxxer lunatics would have an issue with this, but it literally defies logic.

And thanks for your response. I feel like the biggest issue leading to all this insanity is that people can't have real discussions anymore, when we should all have been having free and open discussions the whole time.

Yes there is conflicting data, and new confusing information seems like every day. Scientists are doing everything they can to try to desifer what's going on and what could happen. Virus mutations are our biggest concern right now and they develop mostly in unvaccinated people.

They're only discovering long covid symptoms as time goes on and one is that a small percentage of people will have vascular problems that affect Sexual performance. Just like a small percentage of people will get heart problems or long term extreme fatigue.

WTF? It's research that finds these conditions and it is duly reported as it becomes known. Yes this Omicron variant had spread so rapidly that statistics are meaningless as testing can't keep up and hence reporting numbers of cases anymore is useless so guidelines for for reporting necessarily change. Not conspiracy just evolving facts.

We are extremely lucky that this variant is mild and didn't combine in some way to be more deadly. As a matter of fact I live in a very isolated area in Canada and see very few people, wear an N95 mask, order groceries online and still my wife had gotten it. From me probably, because she doesn't go out at all due to long term illness. She has had a bit of a rough flue like few days and has lost her smell and taste.

These are symptoms that have been reported for a long time. And presto she has them. Not conspiracy.

I mean there is so much to comprehend and reams of reports that it is easy to get confused and pissed off at it all and think that one side or the other is crazy.

Of course they are overwhelmed at hospitals. Doesn't that tell you that this is real? Tons of cases, staff calling in sick. Desperate measures are taken even risking calling in positive staff. Might as well because they figure everyone is going to get it eventually and they need as much help as they can get to deal with those with serious symptoms. Not that they've been lying all this time, just changing situations require adjustments to the approach.

Fact : unvaccinated people fair worse than vaccinated. Yes now this variant can evade vaccines but not as easily as unvaccinated. Not conspiracy, just facts.

Yes there are concerns that repeat vaccination may do more harm than good.

Throughout history plagues have devastated populations across the world. FACT. At least we have science to try to keep ahead of this and we're not doing midieval shit like rubbing donkey shit on your head and having a witch doctor chanting spells.

Think of all the diseases that have been eradicated or Controlled by reseach, vaccines, medications.

This whole thing has become more political than fact based. Yes its possible that this originated from a lab mishap in Wuhan. It maybe from eating bat soup. Who the fuck knows.

Just don't drink bleach. That's about all I can say at this point.

And my original post was meant more as a joke that look this COULD happen to you, and God knows we want our big guys to stay big and functional. LOL

Fucking suppose to get a foot and a half of snow here tonight and I have a kilometer long drive to clean out. Gotta get the fuck outta Canada and retire somewhere warm. Cambodia is too much of a shit whole and hot, though I love it for some reason. But it's days of glory are long gone. It's not the wild west like it was years ago. Too bad. I spent a month in Medellin Colombia and it's fucking awesome. But that is for another thread that I might start.

I tried to post a comment which mysteriously disappeared right after submitting it. I wonder what happened as it was not offensive or anything.
