This story goes back to when the Covid vaccine came out. At that time, I was part of a medical freedom activist group.
When I think about what a sucker I used to be for all the pro-vaccine propaganda, and how I thought that people that didn't vaccinate were at best idiots and worst evil - I realize how powerful propaganda can be.

Aren't these inconsistent points of view? Or had you already become vaccine-skeptical before Covid started?

I see...it was clear in my head but not in my post.

Anyway, my original position (pre 2020) was pro-vaccine, all of them. I had a yearly reminder in my calendar to get the flu shot every fall, and did, without fail.

And then after a couple months of covid insanity and medical tyranny in 2020, I started to realize that the pro-vaccine propaganda was just that - propaganda. I started reading up on it. This particular book was recently referenced in an interview by Aaron Siri.

What's inconsistent? Pre covid vaxx - I was basically positive on vaccines in general.

Post covid vaxx - eyes wide open to the propaganda. Never got it. Never gonna get another flu shot.
