As someone who has posted in the Politics subforum from the beginning, I can tell you it is against forum rules to use the laugh emoji in a sarcastic or mocking manner. People have been suspended from the subforum for months at a time over it.

This post may not have started in the Politics section, but it was moved there. @The Mom just hasn’t gotten around to enforcing it on this thread. On other threads, that behavior has been monitored like a hawk.

I can tell you as someone that gets a lot of laughing emojis from people that disagree with me its not the rules of this sub-forum. I have no problem with emojis being against the rules, but that's for mods to decide.

Nice. Good for you and for all of us too :) Any reaction so far?

I see a lot of people who advocate for removing Covid restrictions in the name of the economy or for the benefit of workers in travel or restaurant or retail businesses. The very best thing we can all do to get the economy running full speed as soon as possible and to help workers is to all get the vaccine as soon as we are eligible. Everyone needs to do their part. I do find it ironic that some of the people who rail on and on about the economy and workers are also saying they don’t plan on getting the vaccine right away. Makes you wonder if they really care at all about others or just want to do what they want to do.

I assume your talking about me since there only a couple dozen or so people that post on this forum. LOL

Yes let's ban everyone that disagrees with you. Discussion forums are always better when it's just one big group think tank or echo chamber.

No, this isn't a disagreement about whether vanilla is better than chocolate. People who like to lie about facts always resort to this false equivalency that "that's just your opinion, dude."

This is someone who posts falsehoods. If someone kept trying to make the argument that the earth is flat, they lie. Their ""proof"" are all lies. Their rebuttal to real proof is ""questioning"" the experts and accusation of a hoax which impossibly requires hundreds of thousands of compliant hoaxers, not to mention every world government being in on the hoax.

And that is exactly the situation when someone continues to promote that vaccines cause autism. Oh sure, they know they can't just come out and say that lie out loud. They've learned that will get them shut down. So, they constantly attack and call into question every scientific finding to allow for that doubt that maybe... just maybe (but they really believe for sure) that vaccines cause autism. And when that doesn't work, they switch to other tactics like claiming, without any scientific proof, that you can't give children too many vaccines at once... you have to spread them out... because of presumed reasons... that have no basis in science.

That's who Tink is. And that poster and others also push other big lies about the virus, like how wearing masks cause people harm, or how COVID death certificates are fake, or how COVID is just like the flu.

It's all lies, not a matter of "disagreeing with others." Stop peddling that tired fallacy.

And when they can't post stuff like that any more, they troll. They purposely goad people and cause dissension and turmoil.

Trolling is against the Terms of Service of this board. It's bannable.

Period.

“Think of the economy” = I want to eat in restaurants, travel, and visit Disney.

If it didn’t affect them they would be the first to say “sucks to be them, they should have gotten a better job and learned to save money.”

I think it’s a mix. Some people are sincere and some use it as an excuse to do what they want. I do wonder how many of those people don’t tip the maid in their hotel room or leave crappy tips for waiters or bell hops.

So having an opinion that defers from yours is trolling? I'm guessing you support censorship of the internet.

I guess you better tell that to all the healthcare workers that aren't getting the vaccine.

The vaccine is the fastest path to economic recovery. It’s a fact no matter how many healthcare workers don’t get the vaccine. If enough people don’t get the vaccine the pandemic carries on longer and many workers continue to be unemployed. I would think a person concerned for the well being of travel and restaurant workers would want the pandemic to end sooner and the economy to recover faster.

There's a reason people aren't getting it. Maybe you should look at that side and keep an open mind.
