Earnest discussions

 

Text for this album:

What, antivaxxers on Hackney Downs?

They don’t look like Piers Corbyn nutcases, crazy climate change deniers or ultra-brexiteers. In fact the pleasant young people who have set up camp in our local park, Hackney Downs, seem familiar from many other past protest camps: Newbury, Wandsworth, Occupy, Extinction Rebellion. What, I wondered, would they be protesting about: poverty, homelessness, racism, sexism, the government’s treatment of students, or more locally, the eviction of barges from the nearby River Lea? None of these - they turn out to be anti-vaxxers and no attempt at rational discussion will get you very far.

“Peace and love,” they declare, then call me a Communist when I suggest people wear masks to protect each other. It makes a change from the usual animal rights stuff to hear them complain that the vaccines have not been tested on animals - never mind that they have now been used on millions of actual humans worldwide. It’s when they blithely assert the rights of care workers to choose not to wear masks or be vaccinated over those of the helpless, powerless people in their care that I get too upset to continue the conversation. The placards, too, seem pretty generic - “United we stand, together we rise” - but on closer inspection they are anything but harmless nonsense.

The camp has been there for nearly two weeks now without anyone trying to move it on. Meanwhile, on nearby London Fields, you can be fined £150 for peeing in a bush and, under new proposals, it may soon be illegal to open a can of beer. If a genuine homeless person attempted to camp in either of these parks you can bet he or she wouldn’t last there till morning.

None of this makes any sense. I took a few pics just for the record, to prove to myself that it wasn’t all the hallucination of a summer heatwave.

Update: The camp was finally evicted on 13th August 2021

Ah, I’ve got their measure now. Fill your soul with sunshine and the nasty virus won’t catch you…

A rousing slogan - but look a little closer at the other placards

Glimpses snapped during one of the anti-vaxxer protests in Dublin, July 2021. There is a chance some of the people captured are no longer with us. The views, statements shared on these pics are opposite of mine personal ones, I was there solely to document the sentiment of the people gathered.

  

St. Cloud, Minnesota

 

February 23, 2013

 

About 300 people gathered in St. Cloud, Minnesota to support gun rights and call for no new gun control laws.

 

Signs read:

 

REAL EYES. REALIZE. REAL LIES. DON'T TREAD ON ME.

This is a series of images from one of the 'Free in the NT' protest marches in Darwin City. These weekly marches were held weekly to protest the vaccination mandates, mask wearing and a whole host a conspiracy theories and nutter ideas. Although the march included some pretty tragically misguided people, there was a serious element a absolute nutters, trying to find some kind of personal relevance in the world. As you can see from some of the signage - they weren't above opening displaying a wide range of nutty ideas and conspiracies. Ironically they continued to image that more and more of the local community would join them, although, as weeks went by, their numbers, relevance and credibility dropped.

But then there’s this. And a lot more like it: “vaccine causes blindness”, “vaccine causes more deaths than Covid”.

Someone later added to this placard "at least my Granny could spell" :)

An anti-vaccine protest outside the Town Hall.

Main point of contention being mandatory vaccination of NHS staff.

 

Anti-vaxxers, anti-mask, and anti-lockdown types in a protest march on Queen Street West. Toronto, Canada. Spring afternoon, 2021. Pentax K1 II.

At the rear of the protest parade northbound on Yonge Street is the Toronto Police mounted unit. This is a bit north of Isabella Street. The final destination of the protest was probably Queen's Park. Besides anti-maskers, there were anti-vaxxers, QAnon types, anti-Trudeau and anti-Doug Ford protesters. Toronto, Canada. Fall afternoon, 2020. Pentax K1 II.

Anti-vaxxers at a protest demonstration outside the Toronto Police headquarters building on College Street. Toronto, Canada. Summer afternoon, 2021. Pentax K1 II.

So vaccines have been a political punching bag for as long as there have been vaccines. But you take your medical advice from Dr..Bikini and the Right-thinkers.

A milk maid shows her cowpoxed hand to a physician, while a farmer or surgeon offers to a dandy inoculation with cowpox that he has taken from a cow. Coloured etching, ca. 1800.

Date:

[1800?]

Reference:

16139i

Description

The scene represents the discovery of vaccination through the details known in France at the time (ca. 1800). The physician in the blue coat and the dandy on the left, both representing English fashions, are recurrent motifs in Depeuille's vaccination prints. The physician may be intended to represent Edward Jenner, who perhaps had not been accurately painted for reference at this point; Sarah Nelmes is known to be the milkmaid who provided the original cowpox. The fat man with the lancet, wearing more old-fashioned dress, may be a farmer or a surgeon. In the left background, a ship sinks in the sea

Part of a protest northbound on Yonge Street near Gloucester Street. Their final destination was probably Queen's Park. Besides anti-maskers, there were anti-vaxxers, QAnon types, anti-Trudeau and anti-Doug Ford protesters. Toronto, Canada. Fall afternoon, 2020. Pentax K1 II.

With respect to Covid-19, a sign in Yonge-Dundas Square states "Unlawful gatherings are not permitted." This reminder is probably aimed squarely at the anti-mask, anti-vaxxer, anti-lockdown crowd who often gathered in the square. Toronto, Canada. Winter afternoon, 2021. Pentax K1 II.

Anti-vaxxer, anti-Trudeau protester with a charming sign. The demonstration that began in front of the Toronto Police headquarters building on College Street, and which then went up Bay Street, has come back down Yonge Street and has arrived at Yonge-Dundas Square. Toronto, Canada. Summer afternoon, 2021. Pentax K1 II.
