    Maybe, I guess it’s subjective or semantics.

    The article talks about mandatory as in forcible injection. You hold the kid down and put a needle in their arm. Obviously, this is not the way.

    I’m suggesting that if you want to receive government benefits or want your child to participate in school then yes vaccination is “mandatory”. Sure it’s not much of a choice, but it captures the reality of the situation.

    As a society, we can all work together for everyone’s benefit. You can choose not to work together with everyone if you wish but it’s not much of a choice.

        Installing a behavior altering brain chip is not analogous to getting a vaccine.

        Sorry I’m not going to engage with this type of argument.

          It was a wrong turn anyway, so I edited it. Sorry. I hoped to catch it before you replied.

          But my point was the arrogance and disrespect. I find it shocking. The actual form of the insult was secondary.
