    you’re right, i’m sorry. it’s just downplaying a deadly and ongoing virus and dismissing the most effective method of protection against it as not necessary.

    don’t talk to me, you’re disgusting.

      Come down from your pedestal for a moment. The world isn’t binary. The most effective method of protection against it would be total self-isolation, but I’m guessing you’re not advocating for that, so I’m going to assume that means you agree that there’s a limit to how far we should go to reduce the spread of the virus. We clearly disagree on where that point is.

      I understand it’s uncomfortable having your viewpoints challenged, but you are acting like a petulant child. If you’re going to argue with me, the least you could do is talk about the issue and try to convince me of your viewpoint. I’m very open to changing my views, but the only learning experience I’m currently enjoying is that a good number of the users here are extremely bigoted.

      If you genuinely don’t want me to talk to you, you can just block me, or stop replying.

          You have no idea whatsoever about what kind of person I am. You’re literally yelling at a strawman.

          Also, I’m not trying to debate. I’m trying to build solidarity across the working class. We should be working together to fight against the elites, not treating eachother like shit.

          Take a step back, get some perspective, and stop acting so indignant over nothing.

            fine, we can agree on this if nothing else.

              I’m almost certain we agree on more things than we disagree on, to be honest. For example, I believe that the way that the pandemic was handled by the majority of western nations was an absolute disgrace, basically sacrificing countless vulnerable people on the altar of capitalism, and that withholding the vaccine from third world nations is just absurdly immoral.

              I’m sure our opinions differ on a few points, but I think that we will generally agree on the majority of the things that are important.

              Anyways, if you have the time, inclination, and energy, I’d really appreciate it if you could help me understand your perspective on this a bit better. I promise I’m not going to “well, actually” or debate bro you, I’m just trying to see broader perspectives a bit better. If you don’t want to for whatever reason, then I understand, and either way I hope you’re doing well and that you have a great day.
