Not a traditional vaccine



This may be like a voice shouting in the wilderness, but what the heck? It can't hurt, and maybe someone will finally get it.

The use of language is important. The words we use are important. The premises we use in arguments are important. Therefore, it is important that you don't concede ground that you shouldn't just because you are too lazy to check up on the language that is being used.

Vaccines have traditionally meant the use of dead viruses to generate an immune response. They don't mean gene therapy. Yet there is an almost universal insistence upon referring to the jab as a "vaccine". It isn't. The jab works through the rna, which is novel. If that's not what it's doing, then please don't call it a vaccine anyway. It doesn't work the way that vaccines have worked in the past.

It is an experiment, and would not have allowed if there were treatments. But there are treatments. Therefore, these jabs should have been tested much more extensively before being unleashed upon the public.

People are either intellectually lazy, or they are part of the disinformation problem. If you don't use language properly, it is one or the other.

The reference to 'you' is generic. Not to be singling anyone out.
