Good stuff, John Wayne. Doesnt affect my healthcare system.

Why is it that I have not seen one vaccine objector that has post secondary biology, health or related education? Hmmm
Why is it that people that were vaccinated from diseases almost eradicated as a result would refuse a vaccine where there is immediate life-threatening concern for others all around them? Selfish much?

I'm pretty sure that the mission to colonize Mars will be to avoid the inevitable self-destruction, and perhaps only to return once things settle. Maybe the Boston Dynamics robots will do some final exterminating before the rich return to restart civilization.

They will likely take a batch of geniuses in many fields as resources, but it is entirely plausible that innovations and expertise could transfer to different AIs and knowledge could be sequestered electronically.

I don't think people will colonize the surface of Mars. I think they will tunnel, maybe using the Boring Company. It is far safer and warmer underground. Utilities and agriculture and such things will be above ground, naturally.

Lol

Everyone needs to feel they are individuals, that they are different. That's ok so long as it's not harmful to others.

So, ask for the vaccination in your gluteus then.

Never mind the sheep analogy. Sadly, a lot of Covid victims were more like lambs to the slaughter. Just thank whoever you weren't in the unfortunate position of being a victim.

I don't know, even if I was in my 20's rather than 50's, I'd still feel compassion. Its part of my imprinting. My mom might have said I wasn't compassionate enough when I was younger, but the truth is you can NEVER be compassionate enough in this world.

That's where the Martians live though... we are the only dumbasses living on the surface of a planet.
