30 minutes prior to our "family" Christmas party the hosts, my cousins, made it known that a negative quick-test would be provided, and required to attend. Out of 30+ attending I was the only one who said "see you next year!, maybe...
They forced their parents to get the clot shot as a condition to see their children.

I understand much of this "must get the jab" is about fear. Mass formation psychosis + terror management theory.
What I find so disconcerting is that NO ONE checked the stats on CV19. It was easy to find the fatality rates. It was easy to find information about the success of mRNA injections. None of this was hard. Yet people were either trusting or lazy and just did what Daddy Government said. That's what's astonishing to me. I never thought I was particularly smart, yet when I see what other people have done...
Agreed. I do think it is a laziness. My Son asked me the other day why I am the only "scientist" he knows that does not agree with the majority. I told that I go to the literature everyday to check what is going on. I also told him about Substack. too much effort for him to become educated. Hopefully he'll learn from my example
I have a sister in law. She's a smart woman with a masters degree. Is a social worker. She lives in Ohio, and her son lives in Montana. She and her husband go visit him via plane. She's kind hearted by not stupid.
A while back, I told her that there are pilots who are vaxxed who are having problems with blood clots and are dying. That's why I won't fly. She said 'yes, I've heard about that.' But yet didn't seem to think that it was something that impacted her at all. Even though she will flies to Montana twice a year.
FWIW, I think they're brainwashed. "oh, people might have died after vaxxination, but that won't happen to me." "It's just a coincidence that people died after vaxxination." "I'll be fine no matter what happens." I've heard versions of all of those things. Brain. Washed.
I feel like there's some kind of unconscious scorecard that smart, college-educated people have where they gain points for every habit/action they adopt because it's "the smartest thing to do according to experts." Had a coworker tell me with sooo much pride how he takes a drug (like Allegra, but not sure which) for "maintenance" to avoid a runny nose. Been doing that for years, says it with pride. Not so long ago, had to go to the ER because he had a nose bleed spewing all over for 4+ hours that wouldn't stop. ER doc told him the drug screwed up the membranes in his nose....
Same person is judgmental to others for not doing "the recommended thing." Just something I sense... kind of a gasp that you'd have the audacity to *choose* not to do what experts recommended.
The vaccines felt like that sort of badge of pride, at least at first.
Smart people, but not wise enough to figure out one size does not fit all with drugs and biochemistry. Sad.
I have a friend, well I haven't spoken to her in 2 years now, but I know that she does "research", and though I'm not sure exactly what that looks like I do know that she attempts to find dissenting opinions(or at least has done so in the past. That said, she usually ends up falling on the side of the woke and it makes me wonder how strong the other side's argument actually was or if it was controlled opposition for show). What is baffling to me is that she has been firmly on the side of double masking and jabbing this whole time, but as you say the information is out there. So how is it that she can't hear any criticism of the regime? We used to be able to talk about anything.
I am sorry. I do know though. I am tolerated by certain friends and family (I tolerate them as well). They are conflicted because they know I am intelligent and precise. So they are between a rock and a hard place. Sadly, in my opinion they chose the believe strangers rather than someone who honestly cares about them.

LOL my son (19) was shocked that I would PAY for anything on Substack. He knows not what he does not know.
Right? ItтАЩs been my salvation to тАЬmeetтАЭ people on Substack. Kids!
My Dad told us 3 there:
1. No free lunch
2. If your friends play in the freeway, are you going because they say itтАЩs OK?
3. Truth is best, lying makes it worse.
A little later than the Reagan years for me, maybe as governor. : )
Totally lazy! Although with the "death" stats that were everywhere, stupid/gullible would go along with it.
I think it's something beyond just lazy.

The stats are on her side....so far.

The woke -- aka the Marxists-- have decided "your speech is violence."
Dissent is not allowed. Sad.
Exactly. The official data has ALWAYS contradicted the official narrative, but only a few of us bothered to look at the data.
"They forced their parents to get the clot shot as a condition to see their children."
The (grand)parents could leave them $1 in their will, and the balance to the grandkids, with an explanation for the reason.
Oh, that's harsh.
I like it.
