I never realised how much people want to be controlled by the government when I was younger.
This is fucked.
“But the government wants to ban something I don’t like! That’s good. They should stop others doing things I don’t like!”

There an element of personal freedom which people find important.
When you smoke its not just your own health you ruin. It’s the same selfish thinking antivaxers have.
That’s not a terrible analogy, but doesn’t resounding support a ban. It’s virtually unimaginable (and I suspect more or less legally impossible) that vaccination would be obligatory.
Vaccination in the past has been obligatory, eg for polio.
So has lobotomy for certain mental health patients. What’s your point?
