MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan supports segregating those who are unvaccinated against the coronavirus and denying them access to basic goods and services.
Philosopher Noam Chomsky argued that those who remain unvaccinated should be segregated, saying that obtaining food after they had "the decency to remove themselves from the community" was "their problem."
It’s worth pointing out the COVID-19 vaccines do not completely stop the transmission of the disease, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Rather, they substantially reduce the chance of transmission. So, what we’re talking about here is the creation of a caste system between the “clean” and “unclean,” denying the latter access to even necessary goods and services, all for the sake of a general reduction in the transmission of the COVID-19 virus.

Many of y'all say you are self-sufficient and demand freedom of choice and action. Additionally, y'all frequently refuse government involvement, direction and support, claiming a free person should have the freedom to keep themselves and their own safe and healthy.
That above being said, you still demand free and equal access to things. So you want the cake and to eat it as well. Guess I dont blame you, I love cake.
The reported risks associated with the covid vaccines are rare.
The vaccine pushers keep saying that the vaccines are safe and effective, but the companies that make them are shielded from litigation. This, combined with the constantly changing definitions of vaccine/herd immunity and what it means to be fully vaccinated, makes it difficult to trust any government recommendations.

I've said once or twice before that I am vaccinated. I am looking at this through the lens of the unvaccinated.

That is just sad. I used to think highly of Chomsky till now.
I don't believe that the vaccinated are in much danger from the unvaccinated.
I think it is going to end up being the other way around.
When it becomes inconvenient to have so much freedom, like the freedom to hunt and gather your own food, they would rather have access to Wally World.

And then what? What would you have dangerously contagions vaccinated people do? Isolate themselves from the unvaccinated?
