This is mostly a fair criticism. I've seen the common, 'my body my rights' used in both vaccines and abortion rights. I would point out however, that the vaccine is less deadly, with fewer side effects than carrying a baby to birth. But also, vaccines give herd immunity, which is a direct benefit to the people around you. So they wouldn't be the same.
Vaccines and climate change are not comparable in any way. And just to state, you can be pro-government and anti-government in certain areas of life/society simultaneously without being a hypocrite. Government is and can be expansive and everyone has their limits. Unless you also like pointing out that people live in houses but still go outside?(What is that all about? like come on, you either love living indoors or outdoors you can't do both /s) |

Perhaps, but you cannot be 'my body my choice' for one thing, and my body, the governments choice in another - the moral high ground on the 'my body my choice' slogan, has been lost - you can't have it both ways imo, and the left has muddied the waters quite a bit by arguing for 2 years that, no you don't get to decide, the government does.
- sure, you can slice and parse the differences all you want, but the previous absoluteness of the 'my body my choice' message has been permanently tainted - and will be exploited over and over again by those that are opposed to abortion (which btw, is not me)
