Have you considered they may be drug needles, not vaccine shots?


No I didn't, and I disagree. Are you joking? The image, literally, captures every conservative grievance regarding the culture wars of late. And you think it's more likely that those needles don't represent the multiple covid vaccines that were hugely controversial amongst this same crowd? You are entirely not credible. You are making ridiculous and unreasonable posts all over this thread, trying to say that these things which obviously indicate what they do, must mean something else.


> And you think it's more likely that those needles don't represent the multiple covid vaccines that were hugely controversial amongst this same crowd?

Are you saying the drugs issue is not a "conservative grievance regarding the culture wars of late"?

This goes directly against "Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith. "

> You are entirely not credible.

That's just a personal attack again.


"Needle drugs" aren't a "conservative grievance regarding the culture war" and certainly nowhere near comparable to vaccines, which the image obviously reflects (the three boosters, then the fourth) and they also aren't intravenous...

I didn't stick with an easier plausible interpretation. Both of your interpretations are clear nonsense and you are not credible because you keep making completely baseless, specious arguments. If you find that offensive, stop making these kinds of arguments.


> "Needle drugs" aren't a "conservative grievance regarding the culture war" and certainly nowhere near comparable to vaccines, which the image obviously reflects (the three boosters, then the fourth) and they also aren't intravenous..

Just for you I googled up the top conservative reddit, and scanned it for topics until I hit vaccines or drugs, and drugs came up first.


The fact that you've posted this as if it proves anything, let alone your point, really speaks to just how far off you are from being reasonable.


Right, cause your claim was substantiated much better.


The image speaks for itself. The needles are in the exact places where the vaccines go, which is also exactly where you don't put intravenous drugs. Either you are ignorant or foolish.
