    “The ends justify the means”. Machiavelli justified the use of all manner of ruthless and immoral behavior for a prince to maintain control.

    I thought this was a skeptics community. It seems I was mistaken.

      So you are characterizing my comment about using any means possible to vaccinate an innocent child that is unable to speak for themselves and is at danger die due to a mentally unstable parent’s belief with ruthless and immoral behavior?

      How do you characterize letting that same child die because they are not vaccinated?

      Edit: typo

        I’m not gonna play this “that’s not what I said, no you said that” BS.

        A skeptic community should be teaching critical thinking not spreading conspiracy theories. End of.

          I’m not playing anything. You can read it. You are responding to statements and arguments I am not making.

          If your argument was “your comment is outside the scope of this community” than make that argument.

          Be well.
