My mum believe the vaccines have chips in them

Designed by Bill Gates.

I don't know what to say to her! She said she'll refuse the vaccine.

@Emeeno1yes but if the chips were capable of being tracked we wouldn't have so many lost cats and dogs surely!

bingowingsmcgee · 13/01/2021 18:51

The people who believe this don't necessarily believe that they themselves are of interest to anyone, but that the tracking or DNA mutation/whatever they believe is in the jab, is part of a new world order that is going to turn the human race into biological machines.

marshmallowfluffy · 13/01/2021 18:52

I feel for Bill Gates. Why don't the conspiracy theorists think Amazon or Google want the chips because some people haven't bought an Alexa or Google Home? Or even Apple might want info on Android users? GrinConfused

bingowingsmcgee · 13/01/2021 18:54

It's kind of mixing up human corruption with conspiracy isn't it? Like, because human beings are inherently corruptable, so a massive conspiracy is happening.

bingowingsmcgee · 13/01/2021 18:58

What I find difficult (not necessarily in regard to jabs, just generally, is that if corrupt people wanted to guide people down a certain road, it's so easy to mix truth and lies and Polarise people into 'vaxxers' and 'anti-vaxxers', or 'believers' and 'non-believers' of anything they want.

God it must be hard seeing someone you love go down the rabbit hole. /r/QAnonCasualties might be for you
I didn't realise this existed but will check it out because some people I know have suddenly had their brains fall out. They believe it's simultaneously a hoax that doesn't exist because Bill Gates wants to microchip people whilst also believing that it's a plan-demic designed to cull a proportion of humanity. They can't see that something can't be a real virus designed to kill and a hoax at the same time, but anyone who points this out is apparently a 'sheeple'

baubled · 13/01/2021 19:10

@LolaSmiles I hate that word "sheeple" purely for not being fuckwits

Velvian · 13/01/2021 19:17

Thing is, even if Bill Gates was chipping us all, I wouldn't really care. That's the thing I don't get.

OP, have you shared that meme:
" I wonder how Bill Gates is going to spend his first day in control of Margaret Keenan, 90, from Coventry."? Grin

jcyclops · 13/01/2021 19:18

There is a worldwide shortage of chips for cars and consumer products www.ft.com/content/e264fd41-7ee9-4fba-be3c-21446298efd9 which could be due to the number of chips being diverted to vaccine producers.

Vera Dobson 88, was the first person in Bradford to get the vaccine. She said "At my age I sometimes get confused and occasionally I don't even know where I am. I have even got lost on my way home from the shops, but now I've been chipped, at least Bill Gates will always know where I am."

When I had the jab I was fortunate to have no side effects, but I have since purchased a 1-year subscription to Microsoft Office 365 and a Microsoft Surface 3 to run it on.

I'm going to hang around the second dosers and see if they start handing them out like the Milky Bar kid.

Lifeinaonesie · 13/01/2021 19:22

Even if they did the government can't even pull an excel spreadsheet together so you've nothing to worry about.

GameSetMatch · 13/01/2021 19:24

I don’t care if the vaccine has micro chips in it that track me, they will soon get bored of me moaning about my back and trudging the same streets daily 😂

CosmicComfort · 13/01/2021 19:27

The thing is, I wouldn’t have cared if I thought the vaccine did have a chip in it, still happy to have had it!

If anyone wants to track me going to work and coming home, they can knock themselves out! On a really exciting day I might have a walk but not often at the moment....

I’m working with covid patients at the moment and I am praying I have some immunity already from the vaccine I had 10 days ago. I was overjoyed to be offered it and am so grateful to my NHS Trust for trying to protect us.

Nellodee · 13/01/2021 19:28

Go round to her house and remove everything that connects to the internet. Rip it out, take it away. Help her.

If she wants it back, she has to have the vaccine.

Girlyracer · 13/01/2021 19:30

We'll laugh at this now. In 10 years time it'll all come out Grin

They've already got Siri and Alexa listening to our every word. This is just gates trying to play catch-up .Grin

Everything with a chip in it surely? So, washing machine, central heating controller...
Lindy2 · 13/01/2021 19:39

Dear God.

Ask her what on earth she thinks is so interesting about her life that makes her think anyone would actually want to microchip her.

Honestly, I despair.

Even if there was a chip, and there absolutely isn't, I still wouldn't care. My life is very routine and I don't care even if I was being tracked. I've nothing at all to hide.

Why do some people think anyone else actually has any interest at all in their totally mundane life!

That’s exactly what I found with my friend. It’s so bizarre. She also believes that the vaccine has a chip in it and that it’s also part of Bill Gates population control and is actually going to kill people. I asked her what was the point of inserting a chip into dead people. Maybe they’ll be reanimated? Is this the zombie apocalypse?
Aprilrainbow · 13/01/2021 19:49

Both Covid & Trump have opened our eyes to just how huge the stupid population is.

AnxiousWeirdo · 13/01/2021 20:03

I'd say you have the same mother as mine but mine cut me out of her life because I'm part of "the agenda". She started on YouTube with flat earth then fell really hard down the conspiracy rabbit hole... Which includes the Manchester and London terror attacks that we're faked even though two of my in laws children we're at Manchester. " You can't see the truth, you're plugged in to the system " was her answer to that among other things. My life is calmer now she doesn't talk to me.

katy1213 · 13/01/2021 20:06

To track her on the way to Tesco?

Bluesername · 14/01/2021 08:19

I'm genuinely shocked at the number of people on here who say they wouldn't care if they were microchipped. Would it not even bother you if babies were micro-chipped at birth? I think it's a horrific idea and very dystopian.

Just because a person has nothing to hide, why would you give up more of your personal privacy by choice?

If you think Bill Gates is benign that's one thing, but do you trust all people with money and power?

How about if it calculated your movements in conjunction with everyone else so it could record who you were with and when, even who you slept with, or check how much exercise you took and limit your access to the NHS if it wasn't the 'correct' amount?

Would you be happy if a dictator bought access to the tracking information and used it to hunt down people of a particular race or religion who had gone into hiding?

wowfudge · 14/01/2021 08:53

The point is it's not happening.

Bluesername · 14/01/2021 09:01

No, but I'm responding to something many people on the thread have said which I found striking.
