I can't be bothered to do the math, doesn't need doing does it. But somebody here will say we're sheepeople.
Like I say....just white noise.
john-e89 said:I've never once said you're against anyone having the vaccine, thats just another one of your spins that you're very good at, even though it's incorrect. We know you're not, you've said it enough times. How am I trying to force it on you...? Why would I and why would I even try, you're capable of making your own mind up.
It's ironic that you put so much spin on things that suit you, such as saying don't force it on you when you're the most vocal on here saying we're sheepeople and what the govt' is doing wrong etc, etc, dont keep forcing the issue. If you don't want to believe Whitty, Valance and JVT then don't, they say you should have it, as do 51million if the population. You know best though.![]()

Nanu said:The aforementioned doctor in SA has again been on the news this morning stating that she is at the epicentre of this outbreak. She again confirmed that these cases are all in the young and unvaccinated. None have been hospitalised and none have died. They all have displayed mild symptoms and recovered within a few days.
I would like to know the same information about those who have been infected in this country for purely selfish reasons being triple jabbed and going to Dubai and theMaldives for NewYear so would like this panic to calm down as soon as.

Tim.
I wondered if people were up or down playing things so decided to look at the data:
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/botswana/
https://covid19.who.int/region/afro/country/bw
Doesn't really look like covid is exploding over there- no deaths in the last week from it.
IMHO like I said before the cynic in me thinks it's a storm in a tea-cup designed to get more boosters in arms and inject children.

So the comment about the number of people vaccinated and the reference to "somebody here will say we're sheepeople" along with me apparently saying you're "sheepeople" is not an attempt to equate my arguments to being against the vaccine?
Good glad to hear it. I'm glad you're getting on the same page.
Never once have I called anyone a "sheepeople" and, yet again John, your suggestion that I have speaks to your complete inability to comprehend what my comments are actually about. They are consistent and pretty simple if you drop the tribalism for a minute, the vaccine isn't a miracle cure, if you want the vaccine go for it but if you don't want the vaccine it shouldn't be forced upon you and that includes by employers or the government and finally people that don't want the vaccine are not automatically the demon spawn of hell, to be hated or feared and complete morons, they are just people who made a different decision. Its what would be called the liberal position.![]()
I do however believe wholeheartedly that the gov are absolutely doing many many things wrong, find me a single person that doesnt. :roll:
You inadvertently hit the nail on the head though, "they say you should have it, as do 51million if the population" 51million and 3 people should STFU and mind their own business if that's the case. I support your right to choose, all I ask is that you do the same for me and that includes not painting me as some sort of idiot, conspiracy theorist, nut job etc![]()
john-e89 said:I actually got the word sheepeople from you Flying, go back and check. I'd never heard it before tbh.
As has been said so many times on here it's boring that no one believes the vaccine is a miracle cure, that's all in your head thinking otherwise.
You've been very vitriolic in the past on a few topics regarding MSM and there you are quoting them on this page. IF you're going to keep your spin up you at least need to make it consistent.
So I should SFTU but you can carry on your David Icke'esq spin progaganda, very equal and liberal of you, thanks very much.
As Ive said many times you can do as you wish, more spin and lies saying I haven't, but why are you surprised when folk disagree with you when you have such an anti community spirit and are quite frankly as selfish as it gets. You're attitude is to say balls to the NHS, who cares if they're on their knees and tens of thousands of people needing medical procedures are having them cancelled due to the virus now, imagine how bad things would be if we had your attitude, the place would be in chaos, but hey, doesn't matter does it, let the country and the world develop herd immunity and then you can walk out in the sunshine having contributed the square root of nothing when it's all but over and a long lasting vaccine has been developed, brilliant.
If you want to go against Whitty, Valance JVT, every GP in the country, virologists, medical professionals, 51 million in the UK alone and the vast majority of the world desperate for the vaccine, the list I'd endless then go ahead that's your choice, but don't tell folk to SFTU when they don't agree with you and call you out for being blatantly wrong and call you out on your spin.![]()
