re: The inevitable vaccine argument with in-laws. "Why won't you just get the jab?"

Yep, with a sister-in-law. She said she thinks Latoya The Destroya is doing a good job in N.O. and is 100% in favor of any and all vaccinations.
Even after I pointed out that the survival rate is over 98% if you come down with COVID, it didn't make any impact. Her logic is "People still died".

You googled 2 cases where things went wrong, so now with your cherry picked cases you're insinuating the people avoiding the vax because they're healthy are going to end up clinging to life because of a couple of cases you were able to find? What about the thousands of people like me who haven't been vaxxed, got covid, and barely hiccuped? Goddamn people like you are such shitty humans. People die from otherwise mild health problems every day due to adverse reactions, should they go get stuck with needles every couple of weeks because medical "experts" who are there to do the government's bidding say so? Do you really think somebody like Fauci actually has the common folk's best interest in mind?

I suppose next time just tell them their arguments have been debunked and they have no standing to continually ask you to get jabbed.

My good friends’ 19 year old son took the day off from his two jobs Friday to go to his grandmother’s house with the other grandkids to bake and decorate Christmas cookies. They were all in the kitchen ready to start and she asked him if he’d ever gotten the jab. He honestly replied “no” and she told him he had to leave. His Mom told me he called her in tears over being treated that way, and in front of all his cousins. Awful.
And I got uninvited to my buddy’s hunting camp by his wife for not having the mark of the beast, on the heels of he and I spending 30-40 hours in a vehicle together on multiple hunting trips over several weeks, and staying in the same cabin each time. It’s reminiscent of the you can’t get Covid in WalMart but you can in a small business.
All about succumbing to control, and many otherwise smart people being duped by Fauci and the MSM.

It is. They cant stand being wrong so they memorize what someone they think is "right" said. Then they spout it acting like some kind of authority. Its tiresome.
Yes! That is the most frustrating part.

And when you do present them with good opposing evidence, they immediately get defensive, dismissive, says it’s debunked, attack the source or change the subject altogether.

Just in general.
They all graduated from great schools. Tulane grads. SIL (no pics) has law degree from Stanford.

I’m the only person in my family with a doctorate, which only means that I’m highly educated, not highly intelligent. Oh and I’m not vaxxed. My Brandon loving relatives can blow me.

It doesn't seem they have much exposure to biological sciences, but they know more than you about the vaccine. Classic Dunning-Kruger effect.

Didn't have to. She offered up that she was ready to leave N.O. with crime being first mentioned along with infrastructure failure running a close second.

Don't. Easiest question is if you have it why do I need it?
Let them provide you with the studies/data for long term side effects.
The vAX/hoAX argument is so easy to destroy you should look forward to having it.
Posted on 12/26/21 at 10:26 am to loogaroo
Just keep in mind that from their point of view they are having this discussion because they care about you. Still difficult I know. At least they aren’t saying you can’t visit like other family members are doing.

I quit debating vaxxers and leftists all together because they've stopped dealing with facts and statistics. When it became clear the vax isn't actually a vax because it doesn't prevent infection or transmission, instead of changing the word vaccination they literally changed the definition of the word vaccination. These are the same people that wear a mask everywhere then pull it down to talk, they're idiots

So she thinks LaToya is doing a “good job” but she’s ready to leave the city over crime and shitty roads? That’s when I’d have nailed her arse on the “good job” comment.
“Karen, if LaToya is doing such a good job then why do you want to move?”

Ask them if they can site evidence to prove that their getting the shots and becoming a G.M.O. will not have any adverse effect on their health and longevity 5, 10, 20 years down the road.
