Yeah a key part of the quote are the words right after shed the virus that you quoted. The quote is specifically saying vaccinated to unvaccinated infections. That seems like a way to fearmonger and spread misinformation while technically possibly not being incorrect. But why say vaccinated to unvaccinated? Picking out specific subgroups when making a statement that is technically true is a classic way to get bigotry across.

We're talking like, vaccinated people are an oppressed minority? Even in the worst red states, is this true? I have a very hard time believing it. I thought the argument was more about vaccination not being a way to "end COVID". (Which might be true! But even if so, like, do get vaccinated. At the very least it'll help you, it may help others indirectly by freeing up medical resources, and there's a decent possibility that it will reduce transmission (even if it doesn't eliminate it entirely).) Is this really too complicated for people?!
- skinnymuch 5y agoI was stating a wider theme of how bad faith people get things across. I did not mean to say vax people are the ones being persecuted. I was connecting bigotry with silly anti vax rhetoric. Both are toxic unhelpful things.
