You already know that we are ignorant and stupid for insisting on a non-GMO COVID vaccine, you’ve possibly said so yourself at some point. So, why are we so ignorant and stupid?
Your first step in understanding our ignorance and our stupidity, is to dispel a few of your misconceptions, so you can truly understand the depths of our ignorance and our stupidity.
Politics – Some of us are Bible-thumping righties, some of us are tree-hugging lefties, some of us are somewhere between. Due to your general disdain for us, a lot of us are a whole lot less concerned with politics than you are. For instance, I, Rick Yukon, am a lifelong progressive lefty, as many bartenders and cocaine dealers from Saskatoon to Apollo Beach can attest. I voted for Biden, but some of my friends voted for Trump. We tend to talk about life a lot more than politics.
Proclivity to Vaccinations – I am a lifelong fan of vaccines. Anything that would take me out of third grade class for an hour or an afternoon was well appreciated. I tend not to get flu vaccines because I tend to get the flu from them, but I’m fully onboard with my vaccination history for things like measles, mumps, rubella, smallpox, tuberculin, polio, diptheria, whooping cough, and tetanus. I vaccinated my own children and I have contributed a solid chunk of my drug and booze money to get vaccines to children in Developing Nations. I’m sure that of my fellow travelers are against vaccines in general, but I haven’t personally met any of them. Most of them seem to share some variation of my view that most vaccines are fine, but a handful of them are not.
Fear of Needles – I’ve yet to meet one of us who has decided against the COVID vaccination due to a fear of a needle. Not one. We object for other reasons.
Fear of Contemporary Medicine – There are definitely a few “flat earthers” among us, it seems to happen, I actually met one some months ago, she gave me the keys to her Mini Clubman and asked me to get the bag of weed that was in her glovebox. Interesting gal. But most of us, we’re okay with medicine. A few of us are physicians, nurses … I sometimes consult with medical research.
Those are the big ones. You might argue that we even somewhat represent a normal cross-section of regular people. So why are we so ignorant and stupid? We understand that many of you need to reduce us to a caricature in order to emotionally process our ignorance and our stupidity.
The one tie that seems to bind us, is the general concern about genetic engineering. Yes, we recognize that biologists who can modulate the genetics of an organism have a powerful tool. But like nuclear physicist who had the power of the atom, we have profound reservations about the safety of the modulations of these natural genetics. Some of us approach this concern from the side of physics, such as myself. Some approach it from chemistry, some from medical ethics, some from biology, some from epidemiology.
Some of us doubt the COVID narrative. Many of us do not, especially those of us who have crunched the numbers from public health data gatherers. I do not doubt, I am reasonably assured that nearly four million people died due to SARS-C0V-2, and that evidence increasingly points to these deaths as the result of a laboratory leak of a genetically-modified coronavirus, that was functionalized on human-chimeras, specifically mice that were genetically enhanced to have humanized immune systems.
So if you had to find the true smoking gun to our ignorance and our stupidity, it would most often be that we just watched four million innocents die to the mishandling of genetic engineering, and we are not willing to endorse this process and risk the fertility and safe reproductive biology of people who have been vaccinated with messenger RNA vaccines that have been functionalized on genetically-modified organisms. If some four million innocents died due to GMOs, we prefer not to double-down with more GMOs.
Those of us who are ignorant and stupid tend to believe that at some point, the response to a mistake is not to make an even bigger mistake. We pray that these GMO vaccines do not result in infertility or birth defects with the people who have taken them. But if there is a statistically significant connection between infertility, birth defects and this GMO-functionalized messenger RNA vaccine, we have little doubt that there will be those who will even more fully stress our ignorance and our stupidity. And it might work for a while, but ultimately, this tends to happen when natural nucleotides, protein structures and sugars are replaced by inserted genetics that do not match the torsional and chirality inputs of the natural nucleotides.
