E.g. I'm yes for a vaccine mandate for certain circumstances. I lean towards no for the general population as I don't like the idea of mandates for anything . I would like to think that the vast majority of the population is educated and informed enough to get vaccinated without being forced to. That said, if for example, we only had a 40% vacc rate for the population ,then I would be in favor of a mandate. The reluctance of some people to be vaccinated for no decent reason as demonstrated in this thread as opposed to the vast majority that are happy to get it done on behalf of community safety suggests that there is a group of people who are just selfish and ignorant. Just like other rules and laws we have to have, it is the minority that makes things like mandates happen.

In you're eagerness to be right and argumentative you've failed to see the "in most cases" part. You're quick to judge and throw ad-hominems at people who don't agree. You said it yourself, if people aren't vaccinated they're uneducated and uninformed, they're selfish and ignorant. All because they don't agree with you. Nice one
