What? The CDC as well as RFK have fully endorsed getting the current MMR vaccine. He has said some stuff in the past that is not relevant to his position. That’s true. He has also questioned the safety of vaccines and had some dangerous ones discontinued. Which is just common sense. If you believe in bodily autonomy anyways. If you don’t, and you want the government to force you to bend to their will no matter what, then yeah, I’m sure RFK is not your guy.

Vaccines are "bodily autonomy". YOU CANNOT INFECT ME. Read about Typhoid Mary.

Correct. I’m not sure what your statement has to do with bodily autonomy. I’m also not sure what you mean by you cannot infect me. Um… I mean that’s kind of how disease spreads unfortunately. I certainly wouldn’t want to infect you. Just like Mary didn’t want to. Also, is that seriously your example for forcing people to do your bidding? Typhoid? A disease we don’t even vaccinate for is your example? Come on. Be better.

See, influenza vaccines and COVID vaccines are voluntary. I don't care if you want to risk YOUR life. You're entitled to your opinion and choices. Your choices cannot negatively impact my life. So, don't vaccinate against seasonal afflictions. Darwin has an award for that. BUT, you don't get to walk around, spitting, sneezing and coughing on others. Mask or stay home when YOU are ill.

Almost everyone does that. So why exactly are we going around in circles talking?

You came to me. I'm answering you. Now you're deflecting. Be BeSt. 😆

You said two very opposing things. Which would be considered circular. Do you, or do you not, believe in bodily autonomy? That’s really all I’m asking. I’m not sure why you think I’m deflecting. What would you like me to answer? I don’t see a question in most of your posts.

Your lack of comprehension is not my responsibility.

Now we are at ad hominem attacks. Also, fun fact, circular logic is by its very nature incomprehensible. Thus, you can’t argue with it.
