Unvaccinated TikTokers Are Calling Themselves ‘Purebloods’

“From now on, I refuse to be referred to as ‘unvaccinated,’ ” a conservative TikToker declared. “I want everyone to now call me Pureblood.”

The term "pureblood" doesn't exactly have the best connotations. But now unvaccinated people on TikTok are, er, trying to reclaim the term as a way to tout their "superiority" over their jabbed fellow citizens.

The phrase was popularized by J.K. Rowling's villain Lord Voldemort in the Harry Potter series as a way to distinguish between those with "pure" wizard ancestry and everyone else, drawing parallels with the Nazi doctrine of the "master race." As a concept, basically, it's been used to justify some of the worst crimes against humanity in history.

The new "pureblood" trend seems to have gotten a big boost from conservative TikToker influencer Lyndsey Marie in a post shared last week replete with hashtags like #harrypotter, #pureblood, and #unvaccinated.

The video has since racked up nearly 250,000 views and Lyndsey Marie is now promising her followers that a line of "pureblood" merch (which will feature an image of a lion and the text, "PUREBLOOD; Unmasked, Unvaxxed, Unafraid.")

Meanwhile, the term has inspired scores of other un-vaxxed social media users to make their own videos.

And here's just an incredible quote from one such dipshit...
"In like five, ten years, maybe less, all the people who are unvaccinated —we're gonna be hunted," she warns. "It's gonna be like 'Resident Evil.' We're gonna be the antidote, because everyone else is fucked, and we're gonna be the only ones with pure blood."

Y'know, it doesn't help their cause when I hear 'pureblood' and it immediately goes to the Mcpoyles. Or maybe it's totally appropriate...

"I'm so superior because i refuse to get a free shot".
No matter how you try to spin it, it's exactly what a loser sounds like.

The next time I want people to sympathize with me, I'm going to start referring to myself as if I'm one of the villains from the Care Bears.

See, and this is exactly why I don't use TikTok for anything other than lipsyncs to my favorite movie clips.

Everything else about it is like Gen Z Facebook.

Outside of the memes it's just more social media. It's got the exact same issues all the rest got, only no one's been paying attention so it spreads like wildfire.

Oh, this is only the pilot episode.

Climate change is going to make the pandemic insanity look like a picnic in comparison.

What happens if they, like, they COVID and don't die and get the antibodies that way. Is their blood no longer pure? Are they ostracized from that community?
