This whole discussion is around whether or not it is appropriate to demand proof of vaccination to do X or Y. I am trying to understand a stance on a similar situation.
don't waste your time with such questions.....this isn't up for debate. it's about their beliefs only...nothing else matters.
there's nothing to understand. they want you to do exactly what they want. that's all there is to it. and if you don't, then you're a terrible person. a civil discussion can never be had.

A worldwide pandemic and voting rights are fairly different things. Both are certainly important, but one doesn't say something about the other.
Even though wasn't directed at me, I will answer it as well. I have no issue with Voter ID in itself. My issue always been the timing. They always seem to pop up a few months prior to the election and that does cause issues of disenfranchisement.
Want to implement Voter ID laws? Time to do it would actually be right now........

Still Confused About Masks? Here’s the Science Behind How Face Masks Prevent Coronavirus
We talked to UCSF epidemiologist George Rutherford, MD, and infectious disease specialist Peter Chin-Hong, MD, about the CDC’s reversal on mask-wearing, the current science on how masks work, and what to consider when choosing a mask.
How Masks Work: What You Should Know About Them
Whether or not you choose to wear a mask is a personal decision. An infectious disease specialist lays out the facts you need to know as you weigh your options.

The science and psychology behind masking to prevent the spread of COVID-19
Experts weigh in on the most effective mask-wearing practices, the psychology behind not masking, and how to communicate its importance.
Shall I continue or should I just direct you to Google from now on to do your own research?
We have laws in this country for a reason. You think you are capable of determining things for yourself, but all you're proving here that you are very incapable of those tasks and why laws exist for mundane things like how to legally cross a street. The current government has been criminally absent here, this could've been over months ago with even a half-baked approach.
It’s like showing a slip of paper saying I am free of STDs. Might be true then at the time of testing, doesn’t mean it’s valid now.
Not sure what good that would do, unless you are willing to be tested everyday.
So where are you going to live because it sounds like you’re at odds with the very foundations of society.
This post jumped out at me since I’m a similar age, so I did some searching to find he died of a heart attack. The article said he was having a procedure related to COVID-19, to remove a blood clot it seems and suffered a heart attack during/after surgery.
I’m not equating pandemic to voting, that’s not the parallel. It’s the requirement to provide proof of something.
Given the difference in situations something like a requirement of that sort would would be also be something that would be approached and treated differently.
People like you don’t understand that this pandemic isn’t a personal body issue. It’s a public health issue. That particular detail about you - whether or not you were vaccinated - gets to decide whether OTHERS live or die.
put aside your love for your own reflection in the mirror and use your mind for once. Nobody cares about you or your health - we need that data for the protection of society overall. If you don’t want to participate, then don’t go out into public spaces. Go live in the forest if you want your ~privacy~
Gotta love mental gymnastics these people go through just to live their lives with that self-serving entitlement and selfishness their awful parents taught them
"KNOE was told he had surgery to remove a COVID-related blood clot. He underwent another procedure for the clot and suffered a heart attack."
Blood clot was caused by COVID-19.
And I love it when the proponents of this vaccine say "there are no long term negative affects," as though they can time travel ahead a few years and come back to report. Such hubris.
I will be looking for the many various options for under-the-table vaccine "passports," sure to be coming.
If that’s how you see it then sell your house/apartment and run off to the woods. Society is moving well past you whether you like it or not 
No serious scientist or doctor would ever say that. About anything, actually, because it's an impossible standard. What we do know is that Covid does have long-term negative effects.
Even the doctors can’t know long term effects. It’s not like the medical and pharmaceutical companies have a perfect record.
COVID is quite low risk for healthy people under 65. I’m pro vaccine, but I can see why some people with literally zero COVID impact would be hesitant to take a vaccine that came out in 10 months and offers little upside for them.
And yes, it’s my body, so in the end, I control what goes into it and I do what’s best for myself.

as long as you don’t go full karen whenever masks are mandated or lockdowns are enforced, nobody cares what you put or don’t put in your body.

I hope contact tracers are able to find evidence of this and these people get charged with Felonies that are disregard Covid.
