not when what you do with your own body affects others.

That’s your ideology. You will need to change the nature of the countries laws and societies values to make medical coercion acceptable. Currently that is not how things are here, this new paradigm would require a national conversation and mass acceptance

I value personal autonomy above safety. therefore, without a reasonable compromise, we will always infringe upon each other

“I value personal autonomy above safety.”

YOUR safety, not others safety when you can spread Covid to them and mutate Covid to make it resistant to Vaccines.

Even though it’s irrelevant.

Are you referring to the vaccinated or the unvaccinated? I always have trouble telling the difference

You cannot "spread" Covid.

you dismiss my "ideology" when we're discussing a law that has just been changed because my "ideology" doesn't align with the current law? eat the cake and have it too.

I’m not dismissing it, it is just as valid as mine

For all I know, the trade offs engendered by your ideologies may be better in the long term for society.

With my limited view, I simply don’t see it that way

Yep, even then. If a man wants to get a tattoo of a swastika, he has the right to do that, even though a lot of people would object to it, strongly. But nobody tells that man he cannot do it, because it's his body, his right. Only women seem to have to FIGHT for the rights to control what happens to their own bodies.

now you're equating a tattoo with a (potential) baby? desperate much?

No, YOU'RE equating it. No, not desperate at all. Just want what's right.

Sure I do. I know exactly what I'm doing. I'm trying to have an adult conversation with a bunch of children.

This would explain the need of so many boys in grownup bodies to feel they should control other people. *YAWN*

self-projection is the only thing liberalism as your ideology enables you to do. i would never expect your sort to self-reflect and think critically.
