We made our stand early. We never flinched or wavered. We paid every price imaginable, knowing we would be proven right. *WE ARE NOT THE SAME*

OUR DAY COMETH
Long time friend since the 80s, we were the same on 95% of issues over the years. Until incredible pressure from his wife & kids (all liberal) to get vaxxed. He held out until August last year, asked repeatedly if I was going to. Answer: NO! Spoke with him week before things hit boiling point. His family voted he should move out if he didn't get vaxxed. The only thing said (and have never said ill of his family) was if he does it just to please them he will regret it. Not because there may be long term vaxx problems but because he caved on his own beliefs.
Never heard back from him and by one month knew he'd gotten vaxxed. Called him, left message, no call back. Call him again, same. Finally at shared interest show (one we always attended) see him there. Go up and he won't make eye contact, looks at feet, so nervous can barely talk. Never asked him about vaxx, no need, answer obvious. I get he did what he felt he had to do and it was the only way to preserve his marriage & family. Hell of a price to pay, thankful not the case in my home. Really unlikely we'd ever go back to where we were as friends though. I am now reminder to that he overrode his own principles. I hope not the case, we'll see.
That's really tough, man. Such a choice would be easy for me. Nothing is worth my freedom.
Yeah, that's a lot of years gone by. In many ways he was far more resolute on things too. What gets me is he is self-employed and no real levers on him except family. Trying not to dwell on it, above first time mentioned it beyond another close friend who remains a rock. He is also self-employed, we all are.
Exactly how I feel, on my feet and not on my knees. Incremental communism has made the endgame nearly invisible.
