Can we please stop using the word 'hesitant'? It's one of those words we are being programmed to use to make it seem like those of us against the shots/gene therapy/forced medical procedure will change our minds based on some magic words they can use to convince us.
I am not 'hesitant'. I will never take a vaccine or gene therapy. I will not permanently alter my body's immune system unnaturally.
Don't just please. As moderation shouldn't attack us for this (mods are very tolerant here) we should DEMAND that.Simply.
u/Agent777 : Words have a meaning and u/GlamourSpork wrote too gently thing I would like to tell you.
Stop using sentences and words with twisted definition created by the enemy. Do you think Orwell mentioning double-speak in "1984" was doing it without reason ?!
They already changed meaning of 2nd amendment by changing definition of word "regulated".
In original text it was not sounding like "controlled" but rather like "disciplined" and "trained" !!!

Words have a meaning. I shouldn't explain too much here,too many leftists are here and of course this forum is accessible to all,but even thing above should show you clearly how important it fucking is and how big damage it can do.

I totally agree, and I have felt the same way for YEARS about the word refuse, as in "refusing vaccination". It's designed to.make it seem like an act of defiance.
However in defense of the author of the article:
"The researchers analysed more than 5 million survey responses by a range of different demographic details, and classed those people who would “probably” or “definitely” not choose to get vaccinated as “vaccine hesitant.”"
And
" found that in the first five months of 2021, the largest decrease in hesitancy was among the least educated — those with a high school education or less."
The people with minimal education who did not want to get vaccinated at the begining but eventually did were by definition, hesitant.
People who would definitely not are not hesitant but people who would probably not are hesitant. The article says both groups were classified as hesitant by the researchers.so that is why they use the term in the article.
And again in defense of the article :
"So not only are the most educated people most sceptical of taking the Covid vaccine, they are also the least likely the change their minds about it… " ie, NOT hesitant, but instead firm in their decision.
It could be that they are trying to get people to adopt and identify with the term 'vaccine hesitant' in order to make them less firm in their decision sub consciously. Sort of like making affirmations.
Not only this,however also this. It is also for covidians who took it or want to take it to persuade them that resistance against the jab is not so big deal.
