"People who get “fully vaccinated” are breeders for “super strains” of even more deadly covid pathogens

Nope. At best you can argue that vaccinated people, if the vaccine is not 100% effective, might facilitate development of a new strain with a different surface protein. Funny thing is, unvaccinated people, by virtue of being fertile viral breeding ground also favor the development of a new strain. If anything, vaccination decreases viral replication opportunity even if only slightly, thus decreasing the opportunity for new strain formation.

Also, this does nothing to change the guts of the Chinavirus. Its lethality does not change because its surface protein changed a little to evade an already established antibody.

Emergence of several much more infectious strains

More infectious means the virus will be more prevalent, not that it will be more lethal.

the vaccine is accelerating the adaptive response of the virus that forms new strains

So like antibiotics do with some bacteria? We don’t stop taking antibiotics because a bacterium somewhere might evade it.

which are far more infectious

Okay so possibly more infectious. I’m with you there.

and potentially deadly…

How? The paint job changed but it’s got the same engine. It’s not faster.

and that these “super strains” are emerging from “fully vaccinated subjects.”

Super infectious strains with the same coof guts which also emerge from fully unvaccinated subjects?

Appreciate your input and opinion on the discussion.

Thanks? I’m still looking for a reasonable explanation for just how the virus potentially changing surface protein to evade one antibody, something which confers nothing new to the virus’ replication mechanisms or ultimately lethality, somehow makes it more deadly. In my honest opinion this is panic being spread instead of facts, and nothing good comes of that.

Hypothetically speaking, if you think of the surface spike proteins on the virus as the "keys", and the human cell membranes as the "locked doors" that prevent the virus from entering the human cell (where the virus would then replicate and release its descendants into the body to continue the exponential enter/replicate/spread cycle), then if the virus was to evolve a different key, it could be a more effective key, and it could potentially allow the virus to enter cells more easily, or even enter cells that it couldn't before. Is any of this likely? I have no idea.
