For two years I have avoided places where Covid protocols are followed. Walked out of a hairdresser's after being sprayed, told to put on a mask and was not allowed to hang up my coat or given the customary drink of coffee or mineral water.
Avoided getting an eye test for the same reason but decided it was time to get one. Called for an appointment: will I have to wear a mask? Yes. In that case, no thanks.
After a minute's thought I decided it was time to fight back. Called back, thankfully I got the optician instead of the receptionist. Will the person doing eye tests be wearing a mask? Yes. Have they had the jab? Yes. So why do I need to wear one, are they not protected?
Guide lines. Against what? The pandemic. What pandemic, where are the makeshift mortuaries and mass graves? Don't you think its time to end this charade? Then pointed out that masks don't work etc.
He warned me that if I continued he would terminate the call. I said I have a mask exemption, and his response was he would check and get back to me. Time to challenge, not just walk away. This has to end. SPEAK OUT.
Speaking out is fine but I think a better strategy than speaking out to people are who unreceptive is to focus on setting up alternative business relationships.
Find an eye doctor who’s not a liberal drone.
Find as many based alternatives as possible and do business with them.
And, once you've found these based businesses, spread the word!
Nice idea but I don't have time to go looking for a needle in a haystack. These guys are the best - there are many who are nowhere near as good. Will see how far I get with my exemption.
I didn't necessarily mean you, in particular, but anyone who finds a based business -- pass it on.
I wish there was some sort of online guide or a list by state and city of places that don't require the masks or vax or whatever.
I wonder if I could put something together that people could update like a wiki or something.
Good idea for a website. If I could get the start up money, I'd do it!
I should talk to some coders I know and mock something up. Maybe gain open source community support or something. It is a good idea and one we should be working towards as a community.
I see lots of people talking about starting our own economy, but how does one go about doing that? We need to share info and resources.
Places offering a service that necessitates close contact with clients will be the last to stop the protocols. There are more people who are afraid and expect the "safeguards" that those who know the facts. The sad thing is, people are getting used to the damned masks. Habits are hard to break.
Yes, I agree but its easier said than done. compliance to NHS diktats in the UK is total, from what I can see.
Maybe try naturopathic doctors if there are any. I am seeing a chiropractor here in US and they don't do the masks unless you prefer, so optional, no jabs either at least for the man running the place. His employees may be jabbed, who knows. I know it doesn't help with an eye doctor. I have a feeling they will spring up as this goes and more people refuse to abide by the dictates.
People need to be told its OK not to wear a mask - most are scared to stand out. That's the impression I get when I ask someone why they are wearing one. Many timid souls out there. I leave them with a few facts about the dangers and hope that persuades them to stop.
Exactly this!
I'm reluctant to get into a back and forth with someone over their mandates. Their business, their right...just as it is my right to walk away.
But, by calling around I was able to find an eye doctor, dentist, and veterinarian who didn't require a mask. My hair dresser dropped the mandate when several clients, myself included, pointed out that a new competitor down the road wasn't requiring them. I turned away from a nail salon over the weekend because they had a mask sign on the door. The owner literally chased my down and asked me to return.
It takes some leg work to find out who's requiring silly protocols and who isn't. It might be harder in a blue state or area.
Yeah that’s their problem. I choose not to do business with easily brainwashed conservatives too.
Yeah it's good to try. Won't work though, as in most of the cases they won't even actually listen. They are the "experts", you see, they have certificates, and you don't, you lowly peasant. How dare you looking into research, you won't understand it anyway.... So there is that, a rude awakening awaits them.
Most just want to keep their businesses going, I get that. What they don't get is they are allowing totalitarianism to get established. Pray for the Great Awakening to happen.
The Great Awakening is erupting around you now, more and more resistance to the narratives and mandates; 6 degrees of separation has involved millions more than just 6 months ago. Pray for the Storm to commence SOON instead..
And do our part in making it happen
YES....RESIST, RESIST, RESIST!!!!
I’m also thinking that when we call these businesses we should ask them if they are enforcing segregation or not. Get away from the pseudo-scientific cloak they have thrown over their tyrannical zealotry and call it what it is.
I like that line
Healthy until proven sick.
You are the patient, if you go in the hospital because you are sick they don't make you wear a mask, the nurse wears the mask and its good enough for both the nurse and the patient.
Yesterday I took the family to the Essex Train and Boat ride in Connecticut. They announced masks were required to board the train but once you were on you could take them off (I guess the CCP virus knows when to strike?). The sheep wore masks, including the others in my family (not all are based). I didn’t. The Conductor asked where my mask was. I responded that I do not comply with Fascist demands and boarded. They never bothered me again.
FYI it’s a 2.5 hour tour. About 1 hour on the train and the rest on a boat up and down the Connecticut river. $32 - a bargain!
Keep standing up to them frens. They do back down.
Yeah lots of people are on our side and just feel like they have to play along with the horseshit. When you say it’s horseshit they suddenly feel validated and encouraged. Everyone just needs to speak up like you did.
Be happy it wasn't a 3 hour tour.
We need to be on the warpath every damn day!
FIGHT these mandates.
Thanks! Starting to feel more empowered and confident :)
It is so insane! So so crazy and it has to stop!! I don't wear a mask except for medical when I go with friends but man my blood boils wearing it....
I have had a couple instances where I went to specialists for my husband that they wouldn’t except my medical reason and said J still had to. Makes me hoppin mad too
I ignore all the signs on the wall about masks being required at my chiropractor's office, I walk in there and stay there with no mask on, despite being the only one, and they don't say a damn thing to me. I walk into every doctor's office without one. At the end of the day, it is MY choice to decide whether to risk getting covid or not, and if they don't like that, I've decided that they can suck it. I take a shitload of vitamin D every day, among other immunity-boosting supplements. Bring it. You're right though - better to start giving these people a hard time about it, because just walking away won't change things. Our demand for freedom will spread and inspire others - now other patients at my chiro's office are going maskless too. I'm so glad to see it.
Damn good point!! With your permission, I'm going to use that one!
Go ahead. As for the virus - ask if they mean the one that's so deadly you have to get tested to see if you have it :)
Covid, the dead virus.
-Are you scared?
-NO.
-How about now?
-NO.
LOL exactly! The one they count as a cause of death when the actual cause of death was a motorcycle accident? A gunshot wound? Laughable. I wish more people would pull their heads out of their asses a lot faster.
I've found that chiropractors generally have a more open minded culture and often align with the homeopathic and holistic medicine groups.
I had a chiropractor strike up a pleasant conversation with me about my Infowars shirt once lol.
Of all the doctors I have seen in my life, chiropractors have done the most actual good for me. Even regular doctors who have given me chiropractic adjustments helped more than the crappy drugs they prescribed. Only 2 in my life have done that though, and one of them was Dr. Sherri Tenpenny - she really is amazing.
Yes, stand up to them and make a stink when you can. I went into a cell phone chain store to buy a new phone and they demanded I wear a mask. I said "I'm not wearing a mask, sorry." They said "Can I ask why not?" I said "I have a medical reason and it's none of your business!" When I refused, they told the salesman he could help me out of the sidewalk. I got outside and he couldn't get a good signal on his iPad to help me, so I said fuck this shit and left. Few days later, went to another branch of this same chain and they didn't ask me to wear a mask at all. I thanked them for not harassing me about masks and told them what happened at the location across town. They were disgusted and informed me that it was NOT corporate policy to make customers wear masks, only staff, and that should not have been done to me. Fuckers. Well, they lost a $1,000 sale so fuck em'.
You can buy a perfectly good phone online for less than $100 and get a plan from Net10 for about $35 a month. I gave up on the phone companies and ridiculous charges a few years ago.
If you want to go even cheaper, go to Dollar General. I bought my wife a reconditioned phone there for just $19.99. It lasted a couple of years, and then we tossed it. It was a great deal.
I have been looking for an eye doctor too, contacts run out in 2 months, can't order any online, tried they need to verify prescription. Problem is these "doctors" are too scared of losing their license, they will not bend on this. It is not worth it to them whether based or not. I guess it would be good to find one that says, I know they are bullshit, but I want to keep my license to practice. Then at least you are going to one that is not a libtard.
I told someone close to me it's going to be the unvaxed that are going to get this country back on track, I think it is a pandemic of the unvaxed but a pandemic for good against the evil
Fuck yes!!!!
If they prefer Masks over Money...fuckem
Shed FEAR. Feelz Good Mang.
Just go and make them refuse service.
Which, by the way, has not happened yet.
I don't understand thought processes like this.
This business basically just told you they are fucking idiots that do not think and just follow lies...yet you want these fucks looking at and fucking with your eyes?
I understand fighting back, but fighting back against doctors, dentist and other medical professionals is just foolish. They are literally give you WARNING KLAZONS not to go to their place yet you are going to argue and argue and blah so that you can go to the place...of the medical professional that is proving they are idiots.
Love this high energy stuff - I've been doing this for months with varying results and I remember the empowering feeling one gets when they first start speaking up. Good on you for spreading the ENERGY.
That said, I'm VERY curious - do you actually have a mask exemption? Or is that a bluff? I ask because I hadn't even thought of bluffing with that, and I'm in a position where I've gone scorched earth on some dentists, need to find a new one, and have underlying health conditions I could use to bluff about an exemption pretty successfully if I so chose.
This farce is so ridiculous; thanks for fighting. You are not alone!
Put it this way, I have a lanyard that says I'm exempt, and am not obliged to say why... Never worn a mask, never will. Loved getting on a bus and staring at all the masked sheep with amusement.
Thanks for the reply. Exactly what I needed to hear. 😉
That's what I tell people you're absolutely right where are the bodies where are the mortuaries that are makeshift where are the funeral processions, if people are dying in massive numbers wouldn't you see all of this stuff the evidence is just not there only numbers on the screen that the fake News tells you well done sir
Yes everyone needs to push back. Never just walk away. If they voice one opinion you voice two.
I don’t ask ahead, I tell them when they ask me ti wear a mask that I have asthma and can’t breathe through the mask and I keep my prescription inhaler handy (my medical exemption) in case proof is requested and they leave me alone.
Every place I've seen that are anal about masks don't care about any exemptions at all. I just tell them that they will never see me again, and I walk out.
Medical exemptions are real but they don't really help our cause. You don't need a medical exemption to have the right to not cover your face with a mask.
Places with mask mandates have an exemption from wearing a mask if you have been advised by a health care provider to not wear one. Rand Paul, a medical doctor, just advised everyone to not comply with the mask mandates so you don't even need to lie about being advised not to wear one. Just look at the purple haired mask-Nazi door greeter at Wally world and proudly say "Mask exemption under advise of a health care provider" and walk right passed them.
Wouldn't trust the skill or professionalism of people like that, even if they truly believe this shit chances are they will rush you through and be sloppy about doing their job to make that happen...
He's not going to call back. He is afraid of the government and losing his license. Most of these people are not going to respond not even if the reasoning is undeniably true. These people are lost and will allow the tyranny to grow. Their compliance is our fate. They don't deserve to be in business because they are so willing to violate their own moral conscience and to do no harm.
To me, it would be better to make an appointment and simply not keep it.
I suspect you are right, we'll see.
No idea, I was livid.
