The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip from your fingers.
I will never, ever, EVER comply, Brandon, and the more you threaten, insult, and mock me, the more resolutely I will hate you and your gang of thugs and psychopaths.
Thank you for completely and utterly shattering my trust in public health, federal government, and mainstream media. I will now default to assuming literally every pronouncement any of you make is an outright lie designed to hurt or control me while enriching yourself.
I was a very good girl, once. Having the faith of someone smart and hardworking and patriotic like me, happy to be a good soldier, would have been a feather in your cap.
"and they came at significant cost". Besides the cost of lost liberties, the mandates have cost good will. As a leader of a group, when I ask my group to do something, they tend to give me the benefit of the doubt, up until the time they perceive I'm lying, or incompetent. I was already somewhat cynical before Covid. But as an example, this is the first year I decided not to get a flu shot. Everything I hear from a governmental agency I view through the lens of "what is their ulterior motive?, cause they are likely lying" lens now. You don't regain trust easily. Especially when you attack the roots of a persons needs (job, health, safety, security).
My Fed agency union prez let slip that 22% of us aren't vaccinated. That's 3,000 people in our agency. If that number holds across the whole Fed workforce, that's about 450,000 people who will have to be fired. Yeah, a few people will give in, but Fed workers are a stubborn and lazy lot, and most of us know the power of stalling. they still haven't announced the punishment or timelines for not getting the jabs. And they still haven't told us how to apply for exemptions. What are they waiting for?
Back to the post. Thank you for charting out this data in an easy-to-digest manner. It confirms my suspicions—basically, all of the Covidians who were gung ho to get spiked the instant the poison death jab became available lined up early on, the more cautious waited a bit and finally succumbed to peer pressure, and those with their critical thinking faculties intact dug their heels in and refused to offer their lives up as a sacrifice to BigPharma, even when the government thought it made them an offer they couldn’t refuse.
Fear of losing gainful employment MAY lead to some degree of temporary uptick. But it will also inevitably lead to a powerfully angry and resentful employee base that bring its own issues.
I believe the mandates do increase some uptake. The uptake path does not lead to 100 .. it leads to a ceiling. The smaller the group of unvaccinated, the more resolute that remaining group will now be. Mandates are likely picking off a few who decided it wasn't worth it (unfortunately) to hold the line. It probably bumped up the ceiling. Unconstitutionally, unethically, and coercively.
You'll likely see more fraud and false positives entering the system at this point as well.
It was interesting to me that only 10% of the people eligible for boosters had gone and gotten one in Vermont, at most count. I wonder how they'll feel when the booster is mandated?
"heck, they’d probably take credit for the trees turning green in the spring if they could figure out how to tax you for it."
Basically that's what's rolling, in every "Green Tax" pitch riding a millennial warming season bringing in greener Springs as it's been doing for centuries and it'll keep going along, even without us.
Humanity, between rapture and racket, enjoy the ride and resist the radicals.
Really? Bernie is the bad guy here? Manchin and Synema are what? Do not, in any stretch of imagination equate them with voting their conscience...if only they had one between them.

Let's go Brandon.

First of all, I confess I came to your blog for the cat and stayed for the toxoplasmosis ;-) Which reminds me of an enthralling audiobook I listened to several years ago: This Is Your Brain on Parasites (https://www.audible.com/pd/This-Is-Your-Brain-on-Parasites-Audiobook/B01GOLTYSC).

It's almost like the stubborn among us only respond to threats and coercion with MORE defiance...huh, weird

Hold the Line.

I'm really glad someone directed me to you Substack. Really good stuff here.
It was interesting to me that only 10% of the people eligible for boosters had gone and gotten one in Vermont, at most count. I wonder how they'll feel when the booster is mandated?

This article claims that the "vaccine mandate" thus far has been just a publicity stunt:
https://thefederalist.com/2021/10/07/joe-bidens-vaccine-mandate-doesnt-exist-its-just-a-press-release/
Of course it may be enough to coerce people (and companies) into vaccination.
Really? Bernie is the bad guy here? Manchin and Synema are what? Do not, in any stretch of imagination equate them with voting their conscience...if only they had one between them.
“Universal vaccination” (constantly revoked by redefinition) is the means, not the end. Economic exclusion of the unvaccinated is progress.
Even so, I think a chart that was limited to eligible (working age) wouldn’t look as flat,
I would love someone to check my math here:

It seems, from the NY Times' own numbers, that NY state had to fire one hospital worker for every hospital worker who submitted to the coercion. 1:1.
Yes there is a big assumption (my 2nd tweet) but I'm not sure how big it is.
84% -> 92% vaxxed is an 8% increase plausibly connected to the mandate. Then they had to fire the 8% remaining, right?
Awesome as always.
