He's pleading with us to get the vax/non-vax?
Well that's it then I guess, this was just the thing that was needed for me to over ride my critical thinking in order to get the double poke.
I for one am insulted to be talked to in this way.
He can get rekt.
This is why I refused to wear a mask wherever I could during all this.
It's why I refuse the Vax.
It gets exponentially harder to refuse the longer this attack on critically thinking people goes on.
Yup. I did a 4 year stint in the army as a tank mechanic before I decided to actually finish high school and go to college.
Nail meet hammer. I was woefully off with the people I thought would keep their shit together during this coof nonsense.
It's disturbing because I see these people I work with differently now and not in a good way.
Fear. I've seen it break people's mind during this whole coof shit show.
I'm a veteran of Iraq. Fear is not something I give into easily if at all.
There's also cultural component to this. I still see the Chinese engineers in my building wearing masks even though the mandate was dropped a month or so ago.
Took a week before the Indians removed their masks whereas the anglo/white/first world people were playing pretend with regards to mask wearing many months ago.
Oh, and the women too. Many of them are still in love with their face diapers.
Degreed engineer here. I assure you, many of us are awake.
My right hand engineer also refuses the death jab.
When this whole thing started, I just went about my life as normal. I live in a town a good hours drive from the nearest city so things weren't nuts here.
I then ditched FB after imploring to people that you can turn the economy off but you can't just turn it back on again. I was told that I only care about the stock market and I want old people to die.
I also continued to go to work and started to work from home on days when I wanted/could do.
The only place I wore a mask was at work, and then it was just a thin gaiter one that I did not wear 'properly' and only wore it when I wasn't in my work area. The only store I needed to go to was the supermarket and I respectfully declined a mask from any employee that offered me one. One time, I had some double masked guy scream at me that I'm an asshole and I'm killing people. I just ignored him and went about my shopping. I'm not a big guy, but I'm heavy into kickboxing and my body reflects that.
I also have 3 people that work directly for me. Two of them didn't miss a beat and continued to come to work. One has a compromised immune system so they wanted to work from home. After 4 weeks, they also came back to work.
My parents took the vax and I stopped speaking to them about such things as it was going nowhere. They won't be around forever and I'm not going to let the global gaslighting destroy my relationship with them.
So what's my point with all this rambling?
We pedes are legion now. All the 'conspiracy' stuff people would roll there eyes at when I talked they are seeing in a different light.
'We' have also created communities like this one here free from the slimy tentacles of big tech where we can share information and stories with each other.
I was deployed to Iraq way back in 2003 right at the beginning. I wasn't even old enough to legally drink beer in the US. That experience completely destroyed almost everything and anything I thought was truth/reality.
It took me many years to learn about how the world really works and man, let me tell you, that is a lonely, lonely road to go down but now for the first time in my life, other people are seeing reality for what it is so when I become impatient with how slow people are to wake up, I take a deep breath, remember how long it took me and that major trauma had to happen before I was willing to learn.
So now I talk when people ask me questions but don't feel the need to scream about 'conspiracy theories' anymore.
This was supposed to be a lot shorter but here we are.
Thanks for reading pedes.
medical professional appeal to authority/emotion
Pick one
The post should be;
'Over the years, you have asked for my medical advice and with regards to the covid vaccine, my advice is for you get both shots regardless of your age or health'
That's how you give advice without being a raving narcissist.
They gave into fear.
Fuck them and twice on Sundays.
PIA VPN.
They've been dragged to court twice and their data was untraceable back to the original user.
I've ixnayed talking about vaccines with mine. They have bought into the propaganda due to fear.
I love them dearly, but I can only lead a horse to water. I can't force it to drink said water.
'My medical history is privileged and none of your business'
I'm done talking about them beyond my core group of friends.
Mental illness
Legal immigrant here.
This is a damn good ruling. I worked hard, filled in all the paperwork, paid the fees, and did things the legal way. Nothing grinds me more than these freeloaders.
I won't be gaslit but these commie pricks. I saw them cheat on election night and no amount of propaganda will change that fact
I just can't. I've been screamed at and harassed a fair few times but wearing a mask is just asinine and I just won't.
It's stupid and I just refuse to do stupid.
Now other people are also breathing fresh air when out and about.
'my privileged medical information is none of your business'
This whole shit show has awakened many Karen's under the guise of virtue.
Get out of the cities.
It's much saner out of them.
Most places near me opened up fully within months of this crap because fuck the Governor.
I gave up with my parents. They bought into the fear and I can't reason someone out of a position that feelings was used to get them into.
So I just asked them to ensure their wills are in order.
I'll also admit that I do a technical job and am quite smart/observant, however, the people I thought would lose their minds because of 'rona didn't, and the ones I thought would keep it together lost their damn minds.
It's been a sobering observation but thankfully my core group of friends are all pedes.
They are asking for Karens to sign up to spread state propaganda.
Top kek!
PA pede here.
If you don't live in the cities, like I don't, this crap lasted a month or two before places just opened up and went 'fuck it'.
I haven't wore a mask inside my gym or local supermarket since the middle of last year. My gun club never closed or put any restrictions in place.
A mandate is not a law after all and yes, I've had people scream at me. I just flash them a shit eating grin and carry on.
Across main street where I live, they put banners up about upcoming events. They put up a 'mask up' banner months and months ago. It lasted about 2 weeks so either someone stole it, or the township got calls.
UFC is woke free
It's been me and a handful of people going maskless into the local grocery store for months.
I've been asked a handful of times if I want one by an employee and I refused and that was the end of that.
One girl didn't feel safe to ring my items up because I wasn't wearing a mask so she got her boss.
Worst time was some older guy screaming at me in the store for a good 20 seconds that I'm an arsehole for not wearing a mask. I just ignored him and went about my shopping.
I also have a rule; if you put your hands on me, I put my hands on you and then it's going to be a very bad day for one of us.
Ask them what their plan for monetary compensation is if you become sick after the vaccine.
My company handed out flyers with instructions on how to get the vaccine whilst explicitly stating this is voluntary and will in now way affect employment.
