Damned right. A buddy of mine posted on Telegram the other day, "Stop calling it 'vaccine hesitancy' because that implies that eventually I might say 'yes' and that is never going to happen."

Biderman’s Chart of Coercion (1957) = Blueprint for the COVID Terror Campaign

https://www.psychologytools.com/resource/coercive-methods-for-enforcing-compliance/

1) Isolation – social distancing, physical distancing, quarantines at home and in other facilities, semi-isolation from elderly family members, lack of physical contact with loved ones, lack of ability to attend funerals and weddings.

2) Monopolization of Perception – general restriction of all movement, prevent social gatherings including church, meetings, sporting events, concerts, complete control of the mainstream media and its coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic.

3) Induced Debilitation/Exhaustion – stay-at-home orders, exercising and socializing is banned, exposed to 24 hour a day, 7 day a week negative media coverage.

4) Threats – threats of fines and or imprisonment for breached emergency order laws, threaten to close businesses, threaten shuttering of all travel, threaten mandatory vaccines, heavy-handed use of police to enforce laws created under Emergency Orders.

5) Occasional Indulgences – some intermittent reopening of stores and restaurants under strict rules including social distancing/capacities, increase the number of people that are allowed to meet in homes, churches, long-term care centres, allow small weddings and funerals.

6) Demonstrating "Omnipotence" and "Omniscience" – force dependency on government handouts because of massive unemployment levels related to shuttering of the economy, develop surveillance techniques to ensure that social distancing and quarantining rules are being adhered to, float trial balloons about the need for a government-mandated Universal Basic Income, use of social media to ensure that only the pro-vaccine narrative receives coverage while all other theories are considered "fake news".

7) Degradation – humiliate people who refuse to wear masks, social distance or accept vaccination, force people to walk in a certain direction in public places and stand in certain places when eating in line, force people to wait in line to access goods and services.

8) Enforcing Trivial Demands – family members must not be in close contact with each other, suggestions like wearing a mask or using glory holes while having sex, force people to wear masks while in their own home while at the same time government officials don't obey their own proclamations.
