I'm undecided about vaccination. In essence, I'll only get it if I really need it, especially with regards to future abroad plans. Most people I know who have been vaccinated, have had minimal side effects.

Whilst a lot of things seem authoritarian about it, we're not living in 1984.


Please elaborate

Maybe not precisely, but you have to consider the fact that Tyranny happens in very small steps.

"We" are now used to being locked up in our homes at the click of a finger. Why? Because we've had our freedom taken away, then given back, then taken away, then given back, and so on. In between all that you have the countless other extreme restrictions and all that bollocks.

That, my friend, is tyranny in action.

Whilst it may be my favourite topic, I really don't think I'm just seeing what I want to see.

I will not be getting the vaccine because I hate needles. And the fact that you need two shots of this vaccine makes it even worse. I am also worried about side effect from it as well.

No, it is not 1984. It is A Brave New World.

But really whether it fits the narrative of any classic novel or not is irrelevant. Keep on with your lazy thinking and sleepwalk us all to hell.

Two shots, for now.

Next year it'll be another.

And so on.

Lemmings.

Although even that's not an accurate analogy, because the idea that lemmings commit mass suicide is a myth.

Yup, it'll be just another thing to get yearly vaccinations for, just like influenza. Difference is that AFAIK we don't need passports for flu.

I don't get any of that shit either.

No, I'm just going to watch this play out.

Although I'll riot if we need to.

Customer just said to me on the phone "so I assume you're all vaccinated up there?" (Referring to us in the North of Ireland).

Nothing wrong with the lady, she was lovely. It's just these "assumptions" not only irritate me, but these are all subtle steps towards segregation and ostracism.

The covid 19 pandemic and the later vaccination programme has spawned a huge wave of conspiracy theories across the world. I have looked into them and most of them can be easily debunked. The conspiracy theories basically revolve around the theory that there is a secret global elite who are orchestrating the pandemic and the vaccination programme inorder to take over the world and enslave humanity! That sounds very highly improbable because so many thousands of people would all have to be in on it! Why would countless thousands of doctors, civil servants and media people all get together to lie about the same thing inorder to help to bring in a New World Order? The conspiracy theories just do not make sense!
