@Hyolobrika Hey, i backed off a bit because i thought your foot was surely a more pressing concern, but i am still interested in what made you think covid vaxines are bad.

So, when you have the time and energy, i would be very interested in hearing about that. Was it from one news outlet, many different, word of mouth or mastodon posts? What are the basic points about this?

It was all of those. News outlets and internet posts.

Lee Fang reports on stuff like that a lot. You may have heard of the famous Truth Cops article he co-authored. Here‘s another sample more relevant to my country.

@Hyolobrika Hmm. The intercept article generally says "gouvernment lies", which is something i agree on. No clear direction on what the lies are on the topic, *shrug*

That lee fellow... sounds fishy. When i opened the page, i was greeted by an oxymoron: "far left billionaires". Nothing that is in any remotely reasonably way left would allow billionaires to exist...

The specific article from lee fang you linked seems ok enough, but does not make any point that would discredit covid vaxines.

So i'm with you on the scepticism towards gouvernment action/proclamations, but i still wonder about the specific conclusion. After all, if someone lies, that does not make the opposite they say true...

I see you made another answer, will continue there.

I think I felt like since I wasn't a medical expert, I had to rely on considerations like the conduct of the people behind it. Whether they were trustworthy or not.

@Hyolobrika I gotta check myself here, maybe you can help:
My main goal right now would be listening and understanding, but i see that i am explaining my position a lot. Should that in any way make you feel like you can't explain yours, please let me know so i can reign myself in.
