  • In that case I would vaccinate the kid and not discriminate their care. They’re the victim of antivax parents, and not to be affected by them. See more here.

    If they’re afraid of the government, then I’d support independent, local, decentralised vaccination campaigns. As long as it’s transparent.

    And for needle phobias, well, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ there’s not really other ways. If there’s another I’d be happy to support that, though.


  • I dunno, not vaccinating is antisocial. I think vaccines must be provided for free and distributed widely.

    And if some don’t want to get vaccinated, then tough luck. We are not going to let kids die because of someone spreading nonsense conspiracies.

    In fact, not vaccinating everyone is favouritism, as it creates a bigger rift between rich and poor, informed and uninformed people.

    If someone A were on a hospital bed and had dutifully vaccinated, but another person B who’s screaming and refuses vaccins (and consequently is more ill), then I think A deserves the care first. Person B chose a lie and harming people, over helping others. He can get fucked.

    Ideally, I’d like for it to be voluntary too, but my solidarity ends at people not doing their part, be they oligarchs or antivaxxers.






  • It is wrong, because if you have the “choice” to, they almost certainly will be put up as a preset. And it enables your privacy to be compromised. Think of it like this: instead of having less choice by not having an option to connect to Microsoft/Google/etc., you get more liberty, privacy, and that gives you more choice to say what you want. Remember the Github dev who got blocked by Microsoft for his criticism? Exactly. It can happen to you too. And that’s not something that will just happen to high profile people, but everyone, unless if we stand against it.

    For-profit is not a silly thing to object to. When the software has profit as motive, they gain an incentive to still snoop on data and sell it.

    And that is exactly why privacy is necessary for all. Oligarchs love privacy (except for others), so they can hide their tax avoidance, and steal people’s hard work.

    All who are not oligarchs, be they communist/socialist, christian democrat, liberal, or whatever else, would stand to benefit from privacy. And it is precisely for that reason that you calling out it as communist makes no sense.

    most of those fall under wealth bootlickers :3

    hate groups? benefit the oligarch by dividing people, and directly suppress normal people that struggle for mankind’s benefit.

    terrorist organisations? the definition of ‘terrorist’ is someone other than the state who commits violence to sow fear. And if the fear is in the rich, are the terrorists then the problem? The definition is iffy.

    organised crime? are people who organise lgbt readings in russia, organised crime? i think this definition is too vague.

    drug cartels? yes, if they’re drugs that don’t help people’s lives, and commit violence against innocent people. They then benefit the oligarch who plays out people against each other.

    human traffickers? if they profit off it, use violence, and don’t have the goal of helping refugees find a safe home from state violence – then they benefit the oligarch, cus they profit.

    rapists and serial offenders? yes, these benefit the oligarchs, literally just look at Trump and Epstein.

    Release the Unaltered Epstein Files, Trump

    cult leaders? Yes, they work to subject people to leadership. Fuck that; liberation is no hierarchy! No gods, no masters. Organised religions work together with oligarchs to subjugate people.

    oligarchs and kleptocrats (the ‘corrupt’ can be left out since it’s synonymous); the root of all evil. These only ever seek profit, profit, profit. They will not stop until the last person has been coerced into the killer machine of capitalism. Once the last capitalist and authoritarianist is dead, the world shall be liberated.

    military juntas and death squads? (rogue, again, here is synonymous) These also benefit oligarchs by making it easier to manipulate a people, through just a few leaders. And these kill people at random for fear, making them actual terrorists, as opposed to people who kill the rich.
