Entry from future dictionary (~50 years)

Anti-vaxxer, noun: someone who thinks for himself/herself and comes to a conclusion that is inconsistent with, or in opposition to, mandated official narratives. Originated in the early twenty-first century in the United States during outbreaks of a globally orchestrated pandemic designed to subjugate the world population via both psychological and biological methods. Used derogatively, but later transitioned to have associations of courage, morality, truthfulness, and protecting the rights of the oppressed.

Eg: Like the early forefathers of the twenty-first century, John fancied himself an anti-vaxxer as he protested the unfair executive order.

Vaccines never worked. You should thank plumbers for saving humanity, instead. They got rid of outhouses, piped poop miles away, and made you wash your crappy hands before flipping our burgers. Plumbers are the heroes, not pharma or doctors.

Dont take RNA shot. There is no pandemic. 600,000 die each year from cancer, but government doesn't force chemo and radiation on us. 660,000 die each year from heart disease, but we aren't force fed anti-cholesterol drugs. Smoking kills 480,000 yearly but government doesn't destroy economy with shutdowns. Only 400,000 die each year WITH covid, not from it. There is no pandemic. Tell your friends, family, and employers to calm down. Its time to arrest government servants for mass murder using genetic experiments.

I have embraced to be labeled anti vaxxer and wear it as the badge or honor. I ask hard questions that make provax feel uncomfortable. I didn't know asking questions can be seen as being subversive

Antivaxxer: Someone that raises valid questions about certain vaccines and is met with only ad hominem responses.”

I am absolutely going to wear that on a shirt.

How about this? Injecting unknown ingredients into my own or my children's bodies with unknown side effects with uncontestable proof of (IN)EFFICACY, and agreeing to go back for more is called anti neuronal apoptosis.

Cell death and cogent thinking is now prolific. I believe we might surmise these epigenetic changes are a result of environmental poisons called the media which support a wayward and criminal government.

I have been an anti-vaxxer for at least 22 years. As a medical student giving high school sports physicals, I was told to then give vaccines. I said No, due to First Do No Harm. Admin was aghast, but could do nothing, because they still upheld the motto. Formaldehyde, aluminum hydroxide, sometimes thimerosal and sometimes active pathogens were in the old, less scary vaccines.

My definition of vaccination: A superstitious ritual involving a mildly poisonous stew that only serves to disrupt optimal immune function.

I have been a hard core anti-vaxxer myself for several years now. One of the best explanations of my reasons for that was in a video-taped presentation several years ago by the mother of a vaccine-injured child. The video and transcript are available at https://www.ageofautism.com/2018/11/why-is-this-legal-presentation-on-vaccines-by-laura-hayes.html. I would highly recommend watching/reading it for anyone who is currently sitting on the fence, or anyone who already an anti-vaxxer and needs some good talking points to share with family and friends.

In a while, 100% will be "anti-vaxxers. That's because everyone that got injected will be dead of heart attack, brain bleed, general organ failure, breakthrough infection, or some such. And to their last breath, the victims will blame either the anti-vaxxers or some newly-discovered alternate cause. The "safe and effective" injection cannot be blamed, ever!

Preach!! I am anti-vaccine. I have been since they harmed my child. All of that poison, and those responsible for producing it and mandating it on the innocent, need to go straight into the bin.

Fauci changed the definition of "Gain of function" after being caught lying about it.

Merriam-Webster playing games they can't win either.

Regarding the Use of the Term "Anti-Vaxxer"

Dear Editor

Thank you Karyse Day [1] for drawing attention to the problem of the bias and intimidation inherent in the term "anti-vaxxer". The term has been around perhaps since the 19th century but has evolved a new context. Three years ago I drew attention to the remarks of Seth Berkley, director of the vaccine lobby organisation GAVI, in the Spectator proposing that "anti-vaxxers" be excluded from social media, which meant in effect not only that certain people should not be allowed on social media but that criticism of vaccines should not be allowed on a generic basis - an extremely serious matter[2].

Unfortunately, this has also been a hobby-horse of the present Prime Minister. In August last year Reuter's recorded Boris Johnson as saying [3]:

“I’m afraid people have just been listening to that superstitious mumbo-jumbo on the internet, all that anti-vax stuff..."

On 24 September 2020 he told the UN [4]:

“There are today people who are still actually anti-science, a whole movement called ‘the anti-vaxxers’ who refuse to acknowledge the evidence that vaccinations have eradicated smallpox and who by their prejudices are actually endangering the very children they want to protect."

By February this year the Sunday Telegraph was reporting [5]:

"Posting anti-vaccine propaganda on social media could become criminal offence, Law Commissioner says

New Law Commissioner Penney Lewis is leading wide-ranging review into whether UK's offence and abuse laws are fit for the Social Media age..."

And once again the Prime Minister was quoted last month [6]:

“There’s all these anti-vaxxers now,” Johnson told medical workers at a doctor’s surgery in London. “They are nuts, they are nuts.”

While there are a lot of very fed up people I am extremely dubious there is a movement called "the anti-vaxxers" or that they are posting propaganda: at the very best this is a simplistic claim [7,8]. At a time when the government is supposedly trying to earn trust for a range of potential SAR-CoV-2 vaccines the continued disparagement and repression of people who raise questions about a class of products - which after all cannot be inherently safe - speaks for itself. It creates an atmosphere of prejudice and intimidation - such as described in the Cumberlege review [9] and should be seen and understood for what it is.

I'm for vaccines that are based on long-term studies and provide immunity from disease, not fake ones like the Covid one that is so ineffective that the very definition of "vaccine" had to be changed to accommodate it.

BTW, I heard a better term than "anti-vaxxer" today. From now on, I will be referring to myself as "vaccine-free."

I am admitting, I was so naive about everything until COVID. Something wasn’t right but I couldn’t explain it. Everything was still unicorns and skittles for me. It took the lockdowns, the mask mandates, the suppression of early treatments and even the mention of them, public officials admittedly withholding and changing information, and the absolute fear everyone (including me) constantly felt. The censorship and the total denial of the vaccine injured was it. It took a long time, plus I wasn’t willing to think people could really put money/power/whatever over someone else’s life. Ignorance, I thought, was bliss. But now I know. And honestly, not being ignorant is very blissful. It’s truth. It gives me strength and more courage than I knew I had. I’ll never go back, I won’t ever be vaccinated with these covid shots, and I’ll stand aside all of you who also know and are so brave to speak up. But I’m keeping the skittles!

In the U.K. a hugely popular morning TV show ran a poll asking if vaccinations should be mandatory. After 45,000 replies, where 89% said no, the poll was dropped and never mentioned again. We are not just fighting govt, but also the bought and paid for MSM
