GIVE ME A WORTHY ENEMY

    It's been a disappointment having debated antivaxxers for about 6 months.

    Where are the sharp quips?

    All I read are flat and mundane put- downs from the enemy.

    Where is the humour?

    Post a joke and all one hears are crickets.

    The great philosopher Friedrich Neitzche said he wants; "an enemy he can hate and not one he despises."

    Sadly there isn't much coming from antivaxxers that creates fear, hate and anger.

    All that is dished up are despicable and petty put-downs.

    An enemy despised isn't worthy of debate.

    It becomes monotonous hearing the same pathetic responses such as-- "time to go to bed old man".

    This is the quotation from Nietzche:

    “You may have enemies whom you hate, but not enemies whom you despise. You must be proud of your enemy: then the success of your enemy shall be your success too.”

    — Friedrich Nietzsche
