I don't consider it betrayal. I consider it naivety and stupidity. Zero hard feelings other than disappointment and some level of anxiety about the long-term outcome. Hope he got one of the placebos.
Not everything is shilling. I recently had someone I care deeply about get the vax in order to join the air force. She knows it is wrong and did it anyway. I asked her what was the point of joining if bending the knee to communism is required? Her desire to be an officer was more important. Hopefully, it doesn't cost her her life. She has recently developed extremely low blood pressure which, ironically, may disqualify her from joining in the first place.
I am coming to the belief that the main difference between those who are awake and those who are woke is the ability (or lack thereof) to project a particular course of action into the future and perform a proper risk analysis.
What's the point of being 'allowed' to do 'x' when it compromises your health?
Weren't we always told that our health is the most important thing in the world? 'If you haven't got your health, you haven't got anything'
"... to project a particular course of action into the future and perform a proper risk analysis."
If I bump into people I now ask a few questions.
If they travel, they probably have vaxxed. Confirm.
Do you know what is going on Down under?
How about in Canada? UK, France, Isreal?
So far; yes, then blank stares.
People really have no idea of what is going on. Big Tech created confirmation bubbles years ago. Now they are actively removing targeted negative articles. Same with science publications like the Lancet, others are rejected science articles. All that plus the "new varients", people are avoiding the news and really have no idea the state of the world right now.
I am also thinking about lying. "Did you see so and so's down in Melbourne? It is the best version of XYZ I have ever watched. So inspiring." Maybe they would stumble onto the truth after that.
News reports, or rumors? Why are you giving any validity to those?
Hierarchy of values, I choose dangerous freedom, and I know why.
We all assume to know so much, to know thyself is hard enough, to assume for anyone else, forget about it.
KP has a September deadline for healthcare professionals to get jabbed or be on unpaid administrative leave. Other places too so that may be why.
Its the Pharma cult last push before defeat probably.
And also when big healthcare put their foot down it persuades others. Many assumes 'smart' doctors wouldn't screw themselves over, so it's probably safe.
It's probably safer walking through the bad parts of LA at night though. lol
Nope. My dad went full retard and got the jab.
Rest of my family hasn't as far as I can tell, and mom and brother appear pretty adamant they will not be getting it under any circumstance.

did the extremely low blood pressure start after her vax?
Yes it did. Its like 85/45 consistently. Mid twenties athletic girl with zero health problems prior.
I've heard of low blood pressure.
Orthostatic Hypotension, a form of POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) is happening in long-Covid cases as well.
Has she found a specialist to treat it?
She has. They are having trouble determining the cause.

Some of the slaves did not leave Egypt with Moses, sad truth, some do enjoy their servitude.
Not everyone has conservative wives. The Biden mandate made things wsy worse for those on the fence
Smells like commie cooter

Right? This reminds me how on Superstonks, everyone suddenly had their loved ones dying and how its better to live you life and sell all your stocks.
God judges all.
I haven't thought too much into it. I figure a lot of companies (including my workplace) set vaccination deadlines for October.
