Well, yes and no. From a purely risk aversion standpoint, it would make sense. The government was asking these companies to make a vaccine in record time and was willing to withdraw many of the usual safety protocols in order to make it possible. The vax companies wouldn’t agree to this unless they were also able to escape liability if/when the removal of those protocols proved to be problematic.

From a purely business and liability standpoint, it makes total sense. I don’t even blame them for that particular thing, but then there’s plenty of other awful things to blame them for as it relates to everything that’s happened. They lied over and over, the idea that they don’t have to release the “real data” for 75 years, the obvious fraud, the lying about side affects and percentages, and then the idea that people were forced to take an experimental drug (which is ultimately on the government)…there’s plenty of legit reasons that they should be hanging from lampposts..

But making an experimental medication available to someone with informed consent - not FORCING THEM - should be allowed, in my opinion. And if it’s not coerced, and everything is on the up and up, the the user assumes responsibility if it doesn’t go so well. But that’s a very specific scenario, and that’s not what happened, though we were sold on the idea that such a scenario is what we’d be dealing with.

It was a bait and switch that killed people.

Honk honk

Yep, he does Dilbert. Funny guy, often quite intelligent but very narcissistic and thinks he's the smartest and most rational man in the world.

It’s interesting how people who are really very good at something automatically assume it makes them good at everything and smart in every area.

Smarter than Elon too.

Also, one of the myriad of problems with retards like Adams is, to them, you can't just be anti-covid vaccine.. you're assumed to be entirely anti-vaccine across the board.

Oh yes, this sort of strawman shit drives me nuts and pisses me off to no end.. but then, the strawman argument is what they do. It's usually all they have, so they use it. And the general population is so fucking stupid that they don't see a logical fallacy any better than they know their asshole from their elbow.

I usually just say, "No, I'm against forcing people into medical experiments, which by the way, the Nuremburg codes are also against."

Obviously, that statement isn't nuanced enough to touch on all the lies told to get people to believe that the covid shot is good, IE "it's 99% safe and effective"...which is a whole other problem in of itself.

But yeah, the idea that I'm against being forced to take an experimental shot therefore I didn't get my tetanus shot, either, is ludicrous.
