My problem with the anti-vax crowd is that they have failed to produce a coherent critique that would convince the average normie without looking paranoid or retarded. Unverifiable, self-reported data is not going to hold up under mainstream scrutiny.

But even if we were to take the data at face value, 15k vaccine deaths compared to the millions of deaths caused by the virus (and its mutations) is measly in comparison. It also does not differentiate between the various COVID-19 vaccines, which is important, since AstraZeneca seems the worst by far and should not be used to condemn the other options. Anecdotally, friends and family have got the vaccine with no issues. The worst symptom was a fever for a few days. Are you seriously going to suggest that long-term effects are inevitable based on personal scepticism alone?

Aligning ourselves with the anti-vaxxers is terrible for optics and distracts from real grievances such as the consolidation of monopolies due to excessive lockdowns bankrupting small, family-owned businesses. The wealthy have attained more wealth and the elites are in the process of implementing convenient methods of control over Western populations, yet here we are sperging on about vaccinations? It truly is disheartening. In fact, it would not surprise me if anti-vax shills are residing here purely to divide the community and shift focus away from topics of genuine importance.
