Well, He was in charge, wasn't He? And you said, " I will admit I am mad at that demon. Not the virus itself...but the inept way it was handled. "

Really. The full term is "lunatic fringe". And it is meant literally.

"Whiteness" has little to do with color.
LamarkNewAge writes:
... the fears of vaccines are very real in minority communities.
True. And that's a reaction caused by distrust of white "solutions" in general. In Canada, for instance, why would indigenous people trust any solutions from the people who "solved" their education problem by abducting their children and forcing them into abusive residential schools? Maybe white people don't really have minorities' best interests at heart?

I am by not taking a dangerous experimental injection that has killed and disabled so many people.
It's an experiment with a pretty big sample size. And it was probably less dangerous for me than walking to the library today.

Without the needle, you can infect others and potentially kill them. Getting the needle is like not driving your car down the street at a hunfred miles an hour while firing a machine-gun out the window.

Pointing out that you are wrong (and why you are wrong) is not an ad hominem.
Pointing out that your ideas are stupid is not an ad hominem.
Claiming that you are wrong because you are stupid would be an ad hominem.

Murdering people in the name of covid
New normal...
It's OK to kill a 20 year old in order to give a dying 85 year old a few more months alive...
So "murder" is another word you don't understand.
Even IF somebody died from the vaccination, nobody forced them to get vaccinated. If you invite your friend to come over for supper and he's run over by a bus on the way, you did not murder him.

In Canada now, Niagra.

No masks here.
In Saskatchewan (1679 miles or 2702 km west of you) many people who deal with the public (retail workers, etc.) are still wearing masks. Some of the public (not me) are too.
No new cases (yet) today, seven-day average 101. Total cases 138K in a population of 1.174 million (2019). Total deaths 1,342. source

Re: Horay the vaccines work. We're saved
Porkncheese writes:
Fact - They said it would give you immunity
If you're listening to people who guaranteed that the vaccines would be 100% effective, the fault is in your lack of skepticism, not in the vaccines.
The actual fact is that vaccines HELP your immune system to fight diseases by giving them a head start - "This is what your enemy looks like. Figure out how to fight him NOW, before he actually shows up in force."
Sometimes they lose the fight.
Porkncheese writes:
A discussion with someone who cannot acknowledge this fact is useless
Well, a discussion with an idiot vaccine-denier might be useless - but I learned how to express WHY you are wrong (see above), so it was useful to me.
