VAXXERS AND ANTI-VAXXERS

You have the right to be an anti-vaxxer and to choose your own disease,

But that does not give you the right to do me harm if and as you please.

Our rights to freedom and its enjoyment are the creation of democratic notions,

And exist as a love-thy-neighbor paradigm, protected by meaningful obligations.

You may have the right not to mask, nor to vaccinate, and to die alone if you must.

But I have reciprocal rights not to recklessly be harmed by you as you turn to dust.

As such, rights and obligations are the societal and personal handmaidens of our freedom,

And enjoying a right whilst avoiding its obligation is the trait of a person, selfish or dumb.
