14 year olds have more logic than HCA recipients huh
Idk. A friend’s teenage son recently got COVID after refusing to get the vaccine and damn near died. When the nurse told him his choice not to get the vaccine was likely why he was so sick, he responded by telling her to go fuck herself and trying to leave. A teenage boy. Acting like a whole ass MAGA idiot.
Rather than understand statistics, some choose the outcome they'd like and assign certainty to it.
For example, the unvaccinated who contracted covid and survived, and the vaccinated who have contracted covid and died. Anti-vaxxers point to these groups, yet the stats around those outcomes are mostly orthogonal to the value of getting vaccinated.
Edit: typos
That teen thinks
Call me cold hearted but I think hospitals should refuse treatment of people who refused the vaccine. Unless they have a legitimate reason to not get it.
There ya go !!!
Except they don’t think it’s helped millions of people.
I mean I wouldn’t really call conservatives “people”
Holy shit I cannot stress enough how screwed some places are for CHILDREN to even recognize what is happening

I thought that said "...morning 4 yr old says:" like come on
Is Cara Penny single? Holy smokes 🥰

If that person has a 14 year old and looks like that, it's likely that the profile picture could actually be the 14 year old herself.
Idiot, there's nothing that says the 14 year old and this woman in the picture are related...
First of all, the idiot part is just mean. Second of all, no one cares. You're down voted to the bottom of the thread. I'm free to reign in your mind as you lash out.
I’ll take things that never happened for $200 Alex.
14 is not 4. Most 14 year olds are perfectly capable of articulating something like this.
Yup. My 14 year old certainly is, and so are her friends. I’ve actually heard some mighty profound things come from their mouths!
He's an antivaxer, check his profile.
I find that subtracting 5 helps.
A 14 year old? I don't have kids. I have no idea what that is; my growth felt very gradual.
I remember being in 9th grade though.
Either way it’s a load of bullshit for updoots.
Nah it’s true. My mom swallowed the conspiracy pill hard. She thinks there’s vaccinated people dying at every corner and the virus has barely killed anyone, all those deaths reported are “fake news” but all those vaccinated injuries are totes real.
Misinformation is a hell of a drug
My 13 year old asks me how adults can be so stupid. I gave up trying to come up with a good answer.
"adults are just older children; some of them need supervision to not eat paste"
For the next time it comes up lol
I think that would be a good opportunity to explore a little psychology and learn insights into human behavior. My aunt and I have gone down that path since 2016. We've come to a tldr conclusion: fear drives them. They repress the fear and it comes out in other ways. The fear is stoked by right wing media, constantly.
"But at least we aren't living in fear."
Fires gun into air erratically
Wisdom does not come with age.
Tell your kid that the dumbest kids he knows will eventually get older, but a lot will never actually grow up.
