#measles was only brought back because of people with that individualist mentality

[highraccoon]

so apparently scotty up there just would be totally okay with polio killing and disfiguring people as long as the "government doesn't tell me what to do". like please just say you're an anti-vaxxer 🙄 this is a matter of public safety and we've seen in the past year and a half that this individualist mentality is killing people. but i guess you don't give a shit because its just disabled people, old people and kids. if making it mandatory to do something that would save people's lives means giving up a tiny portion of bodily autonomy, by all means. cause i'm not a selfish asshole who only cares about myself. fuck the government, i don't give a shit. but if you think for a second that people should be allowed to put other people's lives on the line because they don't care about anyone but themselves, you might need to reconsider your views. this isn't about only you. you don't want to be considered an anti-vaxxer then maybe don't spout the same shit they do. you're worse than an idealist, you're delusional. stop pretending you care about anyone's life because clearly your "beliefs" trumps people's lives.

Take a moment to understand how vaccine passports as permit into public spaces will impact anyone undocumented and anyone who is unable to show ID for other reasons, like a trans person who is forced to out themselves every time they show ID.

It should be very obvious that vaccine passports are a barrier to most forms of public life for marginalized people. They’re not safety. They’re state violence against the most vulnerable among us.

Fight vaccine passports. Fight them with everything you’ve got.

( The same goes for any ‘covid-free’ access pass in places where those passes can not be anonymous or where you need an ID to get tested.)
