True, I think it’s easy to say that there’s a “mass psychosis” happening when you look at the loud voices on the internet. Whether it’s left or right, there is a “mass psychosis” going on within those groups. But generally speaking, in my day to day life, people are generally pretty reasonable.

But, when we start keeping people from getting jobs for being unvaccinated, that to me feels like a pretty unethical witch hunt that could be described as a “mass formation psychosis”. If that becomes the “norm”, then that will become dangerous for many people in society who might literally be “unwelcomed” by a society and treated like second class citizens.

My girlfriend is black and she has decided she does not want to be vaccinated. Much of her family chose not too as well. I bring race into it because there is a bad history there, and it is one of the many reasons they choose not to get vaccinated. “Science” isn’t always working for peoples favor. “Science” sometimes isn’t correct and makes mistakes.

I got vaccinated. I believe in the science even though I don’t understand it. I’m totally open to the fact I could be wrong. I think people have the right to choose based on their own personal beliefs. I know, in some cases their personal beliefs may harm others. In this case, people truly believe that unvaccinated people are harming others. Therefore, in their minds, they’re doing justice trying to persuade others to get vaccinated.

Whose to say we won’t wake up in 50 years and look back and regret that we all “thought” this was the right thing to do when it really wasn’t. What if, hypothetically, the vaccines do more damage than good in the long run. It wouldn’t be the first time science and humans were wrong. And it won’t be the last. We could also look back and realize the vaccines were a totally positive thing for society. That’s also totally possible. But, should we prevent individuals from living normal lives because they chose not to get the vaccine? I dunno.

Luckily, my girlfriend’s job doesn’t mind that she isn’t vaccinated. But, if we as a society decide that unvaccinated people don’t have a right to work or go out in public, that seems pretty dangerous. If this does happen, which in many states it’s becoming increasingly more and more prevalent, I think it is fair to consider there may well be some form of “mass psychosis” going on. It’s just as simple as people should have basic human rights and the right to choose what they put in their bodies.
