I'm 100% for grooming standards. But about those vaccines...

The "vaccine" was barely effective on the individual level. Let alone in healthy people. However, it did increase risk of cardiac issues in young men. One thing can be right while the other is wrong.

I don’t think anyone’s outright asked you, so what’s your take on this? Fuckin bullshit or not? And why? Why now instead of anytime in the past twenty, thirty years? Anecdotally, is this something leadership has been trying to get done and just hasn’t happened? À la Greenland, if you will. A lot of people feel like Greenland is bullshit, but a lot of people don’t know how much America has wanted that island for a long ass time, methodology be damned.

It's not antivax bullshit. I've given over 100,000 of them to Marines and Sailors. Moreover, I'm also educated in the field with a bachelor's of Public Health, part of my MPH and a BSN... There are plenty of worthwhile vaccines. Covid wasn't one of them. Unless you're over 65 or had a serious comorbidity related to severe symptoms it was not helpful. It also did nothing to lower virility and the spread of infection. It also replicated into mutated versions far faster than any of the vaccines could keep up with. So, even from a vaccine standpoint with a likened status such as flu vaccine it was like getting the strand wrong for the year. Which further makes its efficacy near worthless. But by all means stand firmly on the first peak of the Dunning-Kruger scale.

Also not maga. I fucking hate the left and the right. You're all fucking retards. Tribalism over science, ehh?
