Montreal rocked by anti lockdown unrest. Canadian leaders shocked and confused as to how keeping people cramped up in their homes for weeks could cause them to lose their sanity.

I wonder if the people carrying on like froot loops about how the virus 99.7% survival rate or whatever are the same people harping on about the 1 I 250,000 of a blood clot from the vaccine. Either way, you're more likely to catch the Coof and die from being unvaccinated than what you are to die from being vaccinated

I'd seen this warning, and I read the spoiler anyway.

Why, oh why, did I read the spoiler. I lost a minute of my life and feel so... *shudder*.

One day after I got my vaccine. I felt last night like I had a cold (runny nose, sore throat, fatigue, soreness at the injection site, coughing) but today all I have is the cough.

I don't think the vaccine is actually capable of causing respiratory symptoms with the way it's administered (I could be wrong about that), so that could just be a coincidence. But can confirm fatigue and soreness.

Though, to be honest, I probably wouldn't have noticed much if I wasn't specifically paying attention to it.

The cough and runny nose could be my allergies. But the injection site pain, fatigue and sore throat definitely had to be the vaccine.

The injection site pain is real. It felt like I'd just been doing single arm workouts at the gym for a few hours.

I wrote off early symptoms as a late reaction to the first shot. Turns out I got infected the week of my first shot.

Well?

I had covid and it was pretty much a lung and intestine thing for me.

When I got the first shot I did have a minor cough again.

If it wasn’t Q; it would have been something else. I really can’t explain these people anymore. I have a couple trumpet/Q believer relatives and associates. You can argue with them; hit them with evidence. Watching them is like seeing their brain hit a checksum error, reboot and they start the same arguments all over again.

When you hit them with facts, they either don't wanna talk about it anymore or says "I DONT CARE. WE'RE GOING TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN." They've left the known universe and been led off into the dark by Donald Trump like some kind of deranged satanic pide piper.

Actually, that sounds relatively sane. My experience is more that they keep claiming something will happen, that I will see and that I should do more research.

Where of course the dates always move further back, all the big reveals turn out to be duds and when I present my research and ask them to point out where I "went wrong" according to them they ofc never answer; because they themselves never did any research and just parrot what they were told..

But they believe they did research and that they are right. It is a fullblown religion.
