I’m not trying to convince you. They can refuse if they want to. School kids’ parents do, and then they homeschool or move to a state with requirements they like. But the rhetoric isn’t new or clever, it’s flimsy.
it’s not rhetoric, it’s an ethical position concerning a person’s right to self that many people, myself included, actually take seriously

Ethical grounds will not win you any converts on this. Would be more intellectually honest to call it an extremely long odds bet against scientific progress on vaccine development. I would support your right to this, by the way.
