> Modern medical care gives us robotic, heartless nonsense like "routine" circumcision.

That's more of a religious thing.

> I'll take the firing squad before any injections.

You know that firing squads aren't usually working in your best interests, right?

>I'm a skeptic asshole who second guesses claims just because I have access to Google scholar and sci-hub, a good for nothing contrarian made dangerous by the internet.

Watch out everybody, we got ourselves a badass over here.

I thought I was on Reddit for a second. This is some m’lady level edgelord stuff.

Wait, you would literally rather die than get the injection?

Color me skeptical.

> It's "fuck you, I don't trust you to work in my best interests".

While I'm not sure that the rest isn't edgy satire, I definitely agree with this. This vaccine in particular has become a political talking point and moral soapbox.

The people talking about it and making it their soapbox aren't the ones making it.

The people yelling that vaccines are bad usually know nothing about how they work. The politicians trying to take credit for them as miracle pills have had nothing to do with the research. And most of the people telling you to get vaccinated have had no involvement in the vaccine's development.

You can think all the people above don't work in your best interests. That doesn't mean the researchers and scientists developing those things also are.

It's fucking depressing to see how many people are so readily distrusting just about everything that makes the modern world the most incredible achievement in human history. They'll use and abuse every advancement in health care and technology all the while shouting their bloodshot eyes out against 5g, vaccines and whatever scapegoat of the day they decide to pick.

cant tell if parody
