That's a bunch of lies. I hardly felt anything on both shots. How would I not be able to feel anything?

About 10% of people recieving a vaccination (any vaccination mind you) report aches in their arms, sometimes fevers, general weakness and the like. This is a sign of the immune system ramping up it's reaction. Some people's immune system simply reacts more violently than others and just because you lucked out, doesn't mean noone has problems. You ain't the center of the world or even the only version of homo sapiens.

The big question is what shot did people take here too. Moderna is the one that seems to kick people's asses.
I got nothing to say here.

I took Moderna a couple of months ago and I was fine other than a sore arm and being sleepy.

IF WE HAVE TO TAKE A FUCKIN' BOOSTER EVERY YEAR and we're treating not doing so as Nazi criminal satanism for spreading the superkiller bug, which is HYPERBOLE, it has NOT gone back to normal. We've had our liberties put down. There are more years than not to which I do not take the flu shot, and I was never shamed for being an idiot over it. Yet I never thought anti-vaccination was a good policy. I had my booster as a toddler, and that was it. Frankly, I have to wonder if maybe at this point we just DO need some kinda good old civil war. Just kill. And kill and kill and kill. Not even left or right. Just... vent off this rising fuckin' hate and be done with it. Maybe then it ends. But more likely the tyrants STILL keep taking MORE power away from us! HOW THE FUCK DOES THIS NOT DISTURB YOU?! If you can't be open-minded enough to challenge your own biased, cherished, comfortable opinions on this, to which hey, I COULD BE WRONG, I'm human, I'm fallible, I'm not God, then you're exactly the problem.
Its worth noting that we were already in a flu pandemic (and still are) which we take yearly vaccines for. The fact that many didn't is besides the point.

On my first jab I had nothing more than a painful arm for a few hours. On my second it kicked my ass. I was ill with a fever for the better part of a week. But hey, better than Covid.

We're perpetually in a flu pandemic since forever. Fun-fact: 2020's flu season was the most irrelevant thing since the invention of reality TV shows:

[...]

During the 2019 flu season from Sept. 29 to Dec. 28, the CDC reported more than 65,000 cases of influenza nationwide. During the same period this flu season, the agency reported 1,016 cases.

Well, I actually got the flu shot this year, for whatever that's worth mentioning, but I feel like COVID was the greatest gift to the ruthless ghouls at the top. And I hear a lot of conservatives saying the same about the January 6th stuff, which you know, none of the ones I know think the idiots storming the buildings were in the right in any way, but they do feel it's just going to be an excuse for further crackdowns. I say to that, time will tell, but for the freak show we have now, nothing would surprise me, honestly. THIS is the nature of the system we have. It was the same after 9/11. I mean, you think Obama gave us the surveillance state we learned of in 2013? No. That was all post-9/11 stuff, but Democrats, Republicans, I think in the end doesn't matter, it's just two legs of the same thing, inertia heading in the same direction, and it's horrible, but what can you do.

Forgive me for repeating myself, but I feel like I have a prick up my ass. That doesn't mean I'm getting laid.

If you do insist on treating both sides as equally guilty, may I suggest you become a hardcore Leftist? That seems like a better way to align ideology with action than sitting in the middle.

I'm just saying that nothing happened to me. People shouldn't be blaming the vaccine when it can be totally the fault of the individual.
