@dominique6138 @davidrlurie There are many ways an effort to persuade someone to get the vax can end. Assertion of religious freedom or commitment to a superstition or hatred of science or liberals or Joe Biden all do the trick, at least when I’m attempting to persuade.

@dominique6138 @davidrlurie Does any recognizable religion with status as a religion prohibit the taking of vaccines? Early on, Christian Science—traditional skeptical of medical intervention—promoted the vaccine for its followers.
@page88 -- Wed Sep 15 15:56:58 +0000 2021
@davidrlurie Yes—and Chabad! As I remember from Sunday School, the proselyzer shows how the thing offers freedom, joy, sustenance and peace, and doesn't take it away.
@page88 -- Wed Sep 15 15:45:54 +0000 2021
If you want to help, it's time to GOTVax. People will think you're annoying (and your kids will cringe, mine do) but time to hand-sell this vaccine like you're a damn Mormon. Here's where to volunteer in Greater Kansas City (someone asked about MIssouri): https://t.co/2pZwQvjYwL

@MaxBoot (Nearly a quarter of all Canadians live in Quebec.)
@page88 -- Tue Sep 14 14:49:16 +0000 2021
@MaxBoot Yes, that’s it exactly. But can US common-law and worship of civil liberties accommodate those things? My skepticism now runs deep. And given all that, the 73% >18 is even more impressive
@page88 -- Tue Sep 14 14:34:35 +0000 2021

@page88 -- Tue Sep 14 14:31:51 +0000 2021
@MaxBoot That’s a decent comparison — another common-law country (with the major exception of Quebec). Of course there’s also universal healthcare there.

@page88 -- Tue Sep 14 14:21:16 +0000 2021
By contrast less than 66% of eligible voters - those >18 - voted in the last presidential election. Which was record turnout.
@page88 -- Tue Sep 14 14:11:12 +0000 2021
Once again as the Ned Flanders of vaccine proselytizing I urge everyone to hand-sell it to laggards. It’s still surprising how many people don’t know it’s free, don’t know “which one to get,” are scared of needles, etc.
@page88 -- Tue Sep 14 14:04:48 +0000 2021
Am I a bigger optimist than Max? It’s nearly 73% of those over 18, and those under 12 still aren’t eligible. Unlike the Grp of Seven, we are also home to the Bill of Rights & can’t just introduce statutes by fiat. Also home to all social media but TikTok so it’s disinfo central. https://t.co/tMZ0OPEf9w

@angie_rasmussen At one point, we need to agree on the aim of vaccination & the end game. For me, it's reducing the disease burden globally so that we can end the pandemic phase and its devastating public health & socioeconomic impacts. Recurrent boosters in the developed world won't ensure that.

Thanks for asking me. Before we get to "how to cover," we need decisions from the big newsrooms. Are they willing to decide who's a bad actor, or is that something to be left to others? Does responsible news coverage penalize bad actors, or does it merely describe their actions? https://t.co/3ZLJtJ2UBR

BREAKING: Norm MacDonald has died "after a long and private battle with cancer" The influential comedian and former 'SNL' Weekend Update anchor was 61 https://t.co/wSbwGQ8Syp
@WillSloanEsq -- Tue Sep 14 19:07:24 +0000 2021
Once I saw Norm Macdonald in Toronto and he kept doing jokes about death. Someone yelled "No more morbid stuff!" And Norm said, "Maybe I should do... more morbid stuff!" And then he did maybe 15 minutes about how he would hang himself. "First I'd go to the rickety stool store..."

My stomach is super bad and I haven't been eating enough, which is making me tired and cranky and bad at most things, but it's also making me super bummed thinking about all the years of my life I spent feeling this way on purpose, or thinking it was virtuous and healthy.

Quick thread: Here's the deal about this much hyped Saturday's "Justice for January 6" rally. Users on the extremist forums that hyped the rally-turned-riot on January 6 are not so hot on this one. They're telling each other not to go, fearing it's a honeypot from the feds.
@oneunderscore__ -- Wed Sep 15 19:37:15 +0000 2021
Here's a full picture of the run-up to 9/18. It's pretty comprehensive. Public-facing forums are in a much different stance than 1/6. The rhetoric is as violent as ever, but the open organizing and revolutionary vibes? They're no longer out in the open. https://t.co/clj1K4mvjW
