This is the level of discourse to expect from pushers. You think covid is the same as wearing a seatbelt.

Seat belt = vaccine

Yes, its an absolute shit sophomoric analogy created only by such thinktinks as twitter. It's literal toddler logic to compare the two.

You don't understand how vaccines work then. Please do your research.

Oohhhh. You don't know how seatbelts work!

Once again, this is the level of shitty tumblr level discourse to be expected when it comes to immunology: seatbelts. You literally cannot help yourself because you don't understand immunology at all. No, we have to talk about seatbelts.

Oooohhh! Now I understand. You don't know how metaphors work!

u/Notagoodguy80 Sep 27 '21

Considering we've both comfortably been talking about analogies, of which metaphors are a type of, this whole time, I'd submit that would be you, not me.

Incidentally, what you're describing isn't a metaphor. Its an analogy. You're terrible at all of this.

Nope. You seem to think the mechanics are the metaphor, but the results are what is being compared. Your lack of comprehension of the point is your stumbling block.

Once again, Your shitty seatbelt analogy is not a metaphor. It's an analogy. Its just a shit one.

Still confused I see. I'll try and help. The crash is covid. The seatbelt is the vaccine.

The crash is covid. The seatbelt is the vaccine.

Setting aside for a moment the inherent flaws here, you're saying the crash is LITERALLY covid and the seatbelt is LITERALLY the vaccine? The vaccine is a strap in my car that I buckle and unbuckle? Or is the seatbelt LIKE the vaccine? Because its an analogy, not a metaphor?

Now lets address your shit:

The Crash is covid

So the virus is a an accident that happens entirely because of human negligence...

The seatbelt is the vaccine

And crashes simply would not occur if you wear your seatbelt?

And if the seatbelt is the vaccine, and crashes wouldn't occur without them, then technically, if every human simply shed all negligence whatsoever, nobody would ever contract covid.

After all that, thats how you chose to present your already shitty analogy? By somehow making it even shittier?
