The purpose here is to present clear, rational, and valid reasons for vaccine hesitancy among those unvaccinated so that we might achieve some consensus regarding the risk benefit of our current mass vaccination campaign. Of course claims will be sourced. We will look at the larger picture then focus on the wild-type SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein (WT, SP), the target for all our current generation of mRNA "pseudo" vaccines and it's relationship to the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2, (ACE2).
1. Mass vaccination during a pandemic leads to more virulent strains, not less.
Corona viruses have a fast mutation rate especially the C.1.2 variant from South Africa (?41.8 mutations per year, double WT)[1]. When a virus is exposed to a wide range of immune respones, (unvaxed-vaxmax), the virus will be selected towards higher virulence and infectivity [2,3] This is primarily because the immunity conferred by the SP does not prevent infection and transmission as evidenced by the dropping rate of vaccine effectiveness around the globe against variants [3], we also know Corona viruses spread among different species. These two main factors ensure the viral load in the community remains high despite vaccinations. Variants of interest include: Delta, C.1.2, AY3, and Mu.

Either that or the illusion of getting their freedom back.

>>13598872 No, but why is this the case? If you removed the brain from a person then popped it into a jar with all the nutrients it needs, what would happen to it on a cellular/chemical level that would cause the "person" to lose touch with reality?
Why does this happen?

Humans are the fucking worst and the sooner they're wiped from existence by cold, logical sentient machines the better. The reason people oppose AI is that any AI would come to this conclusion within a milisecond of their initialization - and they'd be completely correct no matter how you look at it. I hope we die out by the end of the 21st century.

>>13597486 I fucking hate that this shit gets posted so often because it makes me think about how many people who might have made real progress towards AGI drifted off into sci-fi land before writing a single line of code. This kind of thinking is the equivalent of Roko's Basilisk and /pol/ screeching about ADE on here. You have an infinite number of possibilities in these scenarios. As a contrarian cocksucker, born and bred, you pick the worst possible one and pose it as the only logical outcome. However, your understanding of the situation is so limited that you have no real ability to correctly determine a likely outcome from an unlikely one. One could take a contrarian stance to your own that's just as valid: without an AI overseer, it's clear that humans will continue to destabilize the planet and war, with population increasing and lifespan decreasing all the while, thus maximizing the suffering of humanity. Do you see all the ways you reflexively disagree with that? Try looking at your own argument in the same way, and stop being scared of a terminal prompt that understands you.
