Ah hell, is a question on Lemmy all the anti-vax kids are getting this year? Your right, they really do need more attention than that :)
Comment on I wonder if antivax kids are OK getting a cootie shot?

These kids have a bad enough lot in life by being born to and probably being negatively influenced by irresponsible parents. They probably deserve more care and individual attention than a throwaway question like this.

You say that as if they personally know at least one anti vaxxed kid and told them “Fuck you, I can’t give you any attention today because I’m too busy writing a joke on Lemmy!”
I mean, I feel for the kids too, but do you expect us to start hunting for their identities, kidnapping them and giving them shots?

As a general vibe in life, I try not to punch down. Antivax kids through no fault of their own are at a disadvantage in life (and make life for immunocompromised folks harder). Wondering if they’d be okay with a cootie shot as a question seems snarky and punching down to me.
You could not answer this question categorically anyway. It would depend on the age, how much autonomy they already have over their body, and to how much RFK junioring they’ve been subjected. So the answer is care and individual attention for each kid, not a generalization.
I don’t know where you get the idea I suggested we hunt them down from. But I think you’ve correctly picked up on my critical opinion on this question.
