When the conspiracy theory said Gates was doing it, it was the end of days.

Now that musk is doing it, it'll be sliced bread 2.0.

Nah. These people balk at me wanting an rfid emu chip in my hand.

I will one up you. I'd like to see something that shows body temperature, 02 saturation, and heart rate. Needs to be about the size of a grain of race and implanted in us right after birth. DING, your child has a fever. DING, your child is suffocating in their sleep.

I mean, yeah. My rid/nfc emu chips are passive, tho.

It will be the new vax. Anybody who doesn't get it will be guilty of antisocial behavior and endangering the health of their fellow citizens.

In fact if you got the vax then it's only logical that you get the chip too.

I want you to think long and hard between the differences between not getting protection against a deadly, highly transmissible disease and not getting an iPhone implanted in your skull.

I'll give you a hint. Only one of them actually endangers lives.

[–] cameron_vale@lemm.ee -1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Both are the clear choice for every obedient, right-thinking, socially-conscious citizen. Smart guys like you and me. It's a foregone conclusion.

Do you understand how disease spreads?

Do you know that if you decide you're too cool for a jab that has been tested on literal billions of people and proven safe and effective in over 99.9% of cases, and end up getting COVID, not only could you be stuck with "long COVID" complications for life but you could also spread the disease to someone immunocompromised who isn't eligible for the shot and will almost certainly die from it?

That's nice. Did you copy paste it or do you have it memorized?

I could dig up several reputable sources to corroborate everything I just said, but first I'd like to ask if you have even one that calls it into question.

Give me one reason for not getting the shot besides opposing everything the government does because you want to feel like a special boy.

Yes yes. So virtuous and obedient.

But consider this. Take all your well-worn arguments for the vax and every time you see "vax", replace that with "brainchip".

You see how it works.
