Frens - We have to push back on these vaccine mandates NOW. My daughter is at a top university and she may not go back. My spouse now is getting mandated to get vaxxed and submit proof or. We are both in tech and that's our livelihood. We've worked extremely hard our entire lives, have had zero handouts or help, and we're headed towards the finale of our careers. Tech companies have leverage because they provide good salaries and equity - it puts people in a huge predicament. If you don't meet their requirements and you're out, then you're essentially screwed for the remainder of your career and saving for any kind of retirement. While numerous posts here recommend - just quit, leave your job, or leave and then file a lawsuit, that's not truly a realistic and winning scenario. To expect attorneys to fight pro bono or burn through our savings while attempting to fight against large corporations who have internal and sophisticated legal armies - the end result will not be a positive outcome.
50% of our citizens are not vaccinated. Our sheer number can influence the direction this country takes. Organized and united there is the potential to change company policies and not follow the corrupt democratic government mandates. I just want to say, it's not realistic to just walk away from our jobs and expect to find other employment or to file a lawsuit. By that time, our rights have been completely taken away. It will be far too late and far too costly. If based Tech Co employees and others across our great nation make a stand together, if at least 25%+ of a company's employees say no to vaxx mandates and refuse to work under those conditions, wouldn't we expect that would force a company to change its policy? Would they really cut those employees loose?
My family, as I'm sure many of yours and especially our Military families, are under immediate threat. AT LEAST 50% of this country is against these vaccines. What can we REALISTICALLY do today and this weekend to reverse this insanity now?? What is the strategic, sophisticated, and swift approach to unite and stop this bullshit now? As a citizen, we're on the defensive - this has to change. It's the 4th down, in the 4th quarter on the 17th-yard line. It's time for an interception. Speak up! We can do this! WWG1WGA!!
No armed gatherings, plain and simple. This is what they want and need. They will spin any encounter in the news to make us the bad guys. IF armed protests are needed, it would be obvious. Once the fire starts, it will spread everywhere with incredible speed. If and when that happens, do what is necessary, but don't allow them to control the narrative and don't allow them to trigger you. We are smarter than them and know the game. Patience and preparedness are the answer. No mass gatherings.
