Study: Unvaccinated Face Prejudice Around the World

People around the world show prejudice and discriminatory attitudes toward individuals not vaccinated against COVID-19.

The Findings of the Vaccinated:

On Average, across the six countries, the unvaccinated are disliked as much as drug addicts (15 percentage points), significantly more so than people who have been in prison (10 percentage points, who are atheists (7 percentage points) or who suffer from mental illness (6 percentage points).

It's pretty bad. It's one thing to disagree with their decision but this is taking on the same levels of hatred and intolerance that most special interest groups would normally claim as being utterly intolerable.

Yes. Obviously this can't be compared to the evil that was the holocaust but it's the same process that leads people to that kind of horror. The idea that it's ok to hate someone else entirely and take action against them because you disagree with them or their rights.

The only rights we have are the ones we enforce.

Quite true. I've always said that in order for something to be a 'right' it must be something you can clearly articulate and are willing and able to defend.

Ideology pimping narcissism and egotism. (divide and conquer)

Plain as fucking day.

Unless it is their special interest.

Now that you mention it i do recall the radical left coming out in support and sympathy for the first nations who didn't want to get vaccinated because they had a 'terrible history' with white medical vaccinations and such. (not really true but why not )

Note that they only supported some first nations not wanting poison pumped into their bodies, but everyone else is expected to bend over and take it?

Apparently they decided that they'd poisioned the first nations enough over the years, but we still hadn't reached our 'max poisoning' ratio yet so were fair game.

Seriously the gov't has damn near given up all pretense of being on the side of the people

The far more serious problem is all levels of government have been caught lying so often, with no penalties other than sometimes at the ballot box, that it is not possible to believe anything they say. Even those that get voted out mostly get a golden handshake for being liars and thieves.

the republicans and conservatives dont seem to care if they get people sick and if the sick end up with permanent injuries or death.

Sorry bud, both sides are guilty of that when it comes to public health and safety.

Right - that's why trump's project lightspeed resulted directly in the two most successful vaccines being developed so lighting fast no other vaccine has ever even come remotely close. And he had a distribution plan that was pretty solid

What did biden do? Zilch. Stuck with the original plan and never really adjusted it, tried to take credit for the vaccine he had zero to do with, etc.

Sorry the evidence is pretty clear that republicans actually cared more. They did something other than just fling cash in the air.

This has been the problem with the entire pandemic response overall and is the reason the article you originally posted was written. Anyone who was interested in lowering the temperature and diffuse the animosity between "vaxxed" and "unvaxxed" would know that politicizing the issue like this only encourages the divide and gives the establishment more power over people.

Truth is...no political party was any more helpful or virtuous than any other. They all acted despicably, they all created, crafted, and exploited societal division and hatred between citizens of the "medical caste" to feed their hunger for control. And I sure as hell wouldn't be praising the vaccine program too enthusiastically, there's more evidence coming out every day that it was a complete and utter failure...one that actually caused more injury, suffering, and death than it prevented. Wearing it as a political badge of honour will almost certainly be detrimental to one's career if the entire truth is ever allowed to come out.

In Canada i would disagree. Trudeau very specifically weaponized the virus for political reasons in the election and before and was making very specific statements about people who disagreed with him being a waste of space and bad people (misogynists and bigots) and was very directly and intentionally dialing up that division.

Other parties may have taken political positions but nobody came close to that kind of deliberate campaign to get the vaxxed to hate and revile the unvaxxed.

Your thread title isn't specific to Canada. Even your post I was responding to referred only to US politicians.

At any rate, Canada had a feckless conservative leader throught most of the pandemic who was more concerned in fighting for his political survival than taking a strong position, he was useless. I'm not sure what province you're in but in SK, one of the most conservative provinces in the country, our premier made weekly declarations that he had no patience or tolerance for "the unvaccinated", that life was going to be made uncomfortable for those who chose not to get vaccinated. And he made good on his threat...my wife lost her job under his imposed mandates after months of enduring unbelieveable comments from fellow workers about how unvaccinated people should be treated. Other provincial mandates ensured we paid the price for our medical disobedience daily. These were policies and threats separate from the Federal mandates, which also greatly impacted us.

It doesn't matter where you want to look, the unvaccinated were used as political pawns ...everywhere... and politicians of every stripe used people who made unacceptable medical choices to signal their virtue and grab more control. These actions were despicable, deliberate, and dangerous to free society, and needs to be condemned regardless of partisan leaning...period. Anyone who doesn't see this is being played, and are as reckless and foolish as the Orwellian policies they defend.

Obviously, Which is why i specifically noted that my reply to your comment ONLY applied in Canada. In Canada it was different.

, our premier made weekly declarations that he had no patience or tolerance for "the unvaccinated", that life was going to be made uncomfortable for those who chose not to get vaccinated

Sure - that's a political position. But thats' peanuts compared to actually going on national television and saying that the unvaxed were a waste of space and bigoted and should not be tolerated. He also did as you say and fired people and made life hell for those who disagreed on top of that.

It doesn't matter where you want to look, the unvaccinated were used as political pawns

True enough - but that was not the discussion point. The issue was whether everyone was the same. And no, by any reasonable objective standard the federal liberals were the worst when it comes to who was significantly least virtuous or helpful. Many politicians expressed distaste and derrision for thoe unvaxxed, but only Justin pushed hard for the public to hate them.
