Noam Chomsky says the unvaccinated should just remove themselves from society
National Post ^ | Oct. 27, 2021 | Staff

Posted on 10/27/2021 2:35:37 PM PDT by rickmichaels

MIT professor emeritus and political activist Noam Chomsky said he believes that while unvaccinated people have the right to refuse a COVID jab, they should “have the decency to isolate” from the community for the safety of others.

Chomsky was asked in an interview whether the COVID vaccine should be required when he made the remark. A clip of his response has garnered 1.9 million views on Twitter and been met with mixed reactions.

“People who refuse to accept vaccines, I think the right response for them is not to force them to, but rather to insist that they be isolated. If people decide, ‘I am willing to be a danger to the community by refusing to vaccinate,’ they should say then, ‘Well, I also have the decency to isolate myself. I don’t want a vaccine, but I don’t have the right to run around harming people.’ That should be a convention,” said Chomsky.

“Enforcing is a different question. It should be understood, and we should try to get it to be understood. If it really reaches the point where they are severely endangering people, then of course you have to do something about it,” he added.

Speaking on YouTube’s Primo Radical on Oct. 24, Chomsky said that for the unvaccinated people who are segregated from society, how they obtain groceries should be left up to them. “How can we get food to them?” asked Chomsky. “Well, that’s actually their problem.”

The 92-year-old scholar compared the refusal to get vaccinated to people who refuse to obey traffic rules.

What if the unvaccinated don’t have COVID, Noam? Why should they isolate themselves?

For someone who is supposed to be smart, he seems very deficient in critical thinking skills.

Who can count the stars in the heavens? Who can number the atoms in the universe? Who can tabulate the number of idiotic things dribbling from the lips of Noam Chomsky?

From the article:

“Speaking on YouTube’s Primo Radical on Oct. 24, Chomsky said that for the unvaccinated people who are segregated from society, how they obtain groceries should be left up to them. “How can we get food to them?” asked Chomsky. “Well, that’s actually their problem.”

This statement:

“How can we get food to them?” asked Chomsky. “Well, that’s actually their problem.”

is absolutely evil.

Noam Chomsky is cut from the same cloth as Adolph Hitler.

Hitler sought to remove Jews from society.
Chomsky seeks to remove unvaxxed from society.

I’ve seen no data to support that assertion. If anything, as the vaccine targets the spike protein only, not the whole virus as does our immune system, the *vaccinated* still get the virus but are only protected from the spike protein - making them walking petri dishes for a mutation because the rest of the virus isn’t attacked. The vaccine also seems to lower our own immune system and becomes less effective over time - creating a dependency on these shots. I’ve read multiple PhD’s discussing this.

Not something one would expect from an anarchist.

But his daughter's some Castro fan, so I guess the tree wasn't far from the apple.

Why? The notavax doesn’t stop the recipient from getting or spreading COVID-19. So there is no difference between the jabbed and unjabbed, except maybe the unjabbed have an intact immune system.

There is a difference between the jabbed and unjabbed. The jabbed has an intact virtue signal system. Not as useful as an intact immune system though.

Those who are so sure they will be protected from the Virus, which is why they took the Jab, are now afraid they will get the virus from those who didn’t take the Jab? So, obviously, the Jab gives no protection, these people are MORONS.

I was picking up my meds earlier and the loudspeaker had on repeat, “Vaccinated people need to wear a mask because of all the delta variants”. Sheer stupidity. lol

The senile old Commie [93 years old in December] weighs in.

Vasily Blokhin had the cure for this kind of academic stooge.

No, us PureBlood unvaxxed Morlocks will be YOUR probelm, you senile old Eloi.

I'll bet fava beans and a nice Amarone will go well with my fresh-roasted Eloi.

Where do you get this misinformation:

"the *vaccinated* still get the virus but are only protected from the spike protein - making them walking petri dishes for a mutation because the rest of the virus isn’t attacked."

Professor Luke O’Neill, an immunologist at Trinity College Dublin, told Euronews in April 2021 that, “Vaccines bring out the human immune system to kill the virus, that stops it replicating and therefore the chance of variants emerging is decreased.”

None of the COVID-19 vaccines authorized for emergency use in the U.S. and Europe contain a live COVID-19 virus, and thus cannot create a variant or allow vaccinated individuals to infect others.

Martin Hibberd, a professor of emerging infectious disease at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, told NewsGuard in a March 2021 email that the approved vaccines “are not complete viruses and so cannot replicate a new variant that can infect others. Some types of vaccine use attenuated whole viruses and these can generate variants that could theoretically pass on to others, but the COVID-19 vaccines are not of that type and so cannot do that.”

A 2018 article about the possibility that viruses can evolve to evade vaccines is trending on social media. The article was shared online by the self-declared “inventor” of mRNA vaccines, who is a vocal opponent of COVID-19 vaccination, in a post claiming that COVID-19 vaccines are creating new variants. The post received nearly 19,000 engagements. While the article, which was published more than a year before SARS-CoV-2 was identified, argues that vaccine-driven evolution of viruses may be possible, there is no evidence that SARS-CoV-2 has evolved in this way. New COVID-19 variants develop when mutations occur during viral replication. Viruses can’t replicate outside of a host—in this case, human cells—so preventing a virus from infecting cells in the first place prevents it from reproducing and mutating.

An educated moron. If you feel sick, isolate by staying home. Otherwise, live life. Chomsky needs to isolate due to his fascist ideology.
