A touchy subject indeed. I am vaxxed. I turned it down three times when it was offered by various employers. I was dead set against it. Still am. I am likely to lose my jobs over mask mandates and become unemployable which will likely lead to being forced to return to the US from Japan for the first time to live in more than 20 years, leaving my family behind. Yet I got this cursed shot. If I did not, then my child would be denied school if I have any covid like symptoms. I always have covid like symptoms due to allergies. So he would be denied an education unless I got the shot. So I did. I pray that if it is to do me in, that it does so before they try to give in to my son. You folks who have stayed resolute ARE the pure bloods. We, the vaxxed, spread this virus more than you. We are less likely to fend off later mutations of the virus than you are. We have turned ourselves into superspreaders of the disease and very well may have exerted enough evolutionary pressure to keep this nonsense going much longer than it otherwise would and creating a bigger mess for you to clean up afterwards. It very well may be the case that the existence of us, the vaxxed, threaten your very existence. The time for hurt feelings is past. If any of my fellow vaxxed complain, tell =us all to go pack sand. Call as you see it. Just my 2 cents worth, for what they are worth.
That said, you are the author and have many concerns to worry about. I respect your call.
it's not my intention to make this call for anyone apart from myself.
but this is not about hurt feelings so much as effective communication and coalition building to get out of this mess while also promoting what was one referred to as "common decency."
a phrase like "pure bloods" is needlessly inflammatory, others those who got vaxxed, and has an inherent "i am better than you" slant.
a lot of people got lied to about these drugs and went along to get along etc.
many are now waking up to the scam and seeing the inefficacy and the fact that this will never end and that that was always the plan.
these people can be allies as we resist further authoritarian encroachment or we can alienate them by erecting imperious names for our tribe that belittle them.
speaking truths about "this did not work. it made it worse. you are likely more threat to the unvaxxed then they are to you" is all well and good. but erecting some "pureblood" edifice that cannot be joined and echoes all manner of nasty historical pretexts for genocide and systemic discrimination is not helpful.
is that who we want to be?
i sure don't.
restoring sanity means getting the center back on side. this takes truth and it takes inclusion.
the enemy are not those that fell for this. it's those who played the trick.
True. All true. However, those of us who vaxxed regardless of how or why, our fates are sealed. We need to prevent the unvaxxed from getting vaxxed. At all costs.
Now, there may be a better way than the terms used but reason is not going to get it done. People are panicked and thus can not be reasoned with. I hope I am wrong, but it seems that the only way is through a fear that is greater than what they now have. It’s like we are try to stop a stampeded of buffalo from running off a cliff.
Wow, TS, that is a poignant and powerful message. Thank you for weighing in with your unique perspective. I am so deeply sorry you were coerced into getting jabbed and hope you can take precautions to mitigate the potential effects. Here are some recs that may help:
Thank you, but you don’t understand. IF something is to happen because of the shot, I want it to happen as soon. I see no other way to keep my son safe from getting the shot. His is 8 and everyone around my is vaxx crazy. I do not want him to get this shot.
TS, I think I follow you, although I don’t want anything to happen to you :-( You are right to do everything in your power to save your son from this. Is home-schooling an option? Medical exemption? Religious exemption? I think the narrative is crumbling quickly, and we just need to hold the line for a few more months …
Ah, good to know. You might try seeing if James Corbett has discussed this situation as he lives in Japan and has school-aged children. Let’s hope the madness ends before the age limit is reduced!

Amen all the way, and I think that is a wise and compassionate strategy 🙌
Wow, TS, that is a poignant and powerful message. Thank you for weighing in with your unique perspective. I am so deeply sorry you were coerced into getting jabbed and hope you can take precautions to mitigate the potential effects. Here are some recs that may help:

• citrus
• peppermint

I applaud you for your humility, awareness, and bravery in speaking up on behalf of the vilified unvaxxed/non-vaxxed/non-GMO humans :-)

I live in Japan. No such option exist. As of yet, they are not vaxxing kids his age but I believe they are for 12 year olds and up.

Very sorry for your predicament (textbook coercion). Sometimes there is little choice.
Thank you. But you see, there was a choice. I hope to save my son from this and the choice I made, I believe, was the one to make for that goal.
