It's not about how ridiculous the conspiracy theory is when considering the full context. Obviously it's not the case that the US is using the COVID vaccines to experiment on certain races while excluding others.
It's about why someone might believe such a thing and what you can to do to try to convince them otherwise.
"They use the same vials" isn't a great argument to give to a skeptic. Unless you manage to get in the back rooms and observe the full chain of custody of every syringe, you can't know for sure you're getting the same thing as someone else.
If your existing prior is that you are likely being deceived and tricked into receiving something that may harm you, it's rational to think they'll use techniques to make it seem like you aren't receiving any special treatment.

- meowface 5y agoPresumably they're using different syringes for different people in any one sitting, right? If there were a plan to inject some people with something different, the people administering the vaccine could hypothetically decide which syringe to use based on some tiny, subtle marking or alteration that the public wouldn't notice. If you could see that every syringe used was filled from the same "output port" (don't know the actual term) on the same storage device, then it'd be a lot harder to accuse them of anything.
