‘Breaking society apart’: Unvaccinated people are angry as they face more Covid restrictions
CNBC ^ | AUG 13 2021 | Holly Ellyatt

Posted on 08/13/2021 10:46:58 AM PDT by BenLurkin

Almost all governments around the world have so far resisted making Covid vaccination mandatory for their citizens, although many have introduced forms of Covid vaccination certificates, passes or passports that allow the immunized bearer more freedoms and work opportunities than unvaccinated people.

Aspects of daily life are increasingly complicated for anyone who is not vaccinated against Covid, and there is a rising sense of anger and injustice among those who reject the vaccine.

Despite protests among groups against such moves, the freedom to travel, work, socialize and engage in leisure activities is increasingly determined by our Covid vaccination status.

Nationally the U.S. has ruled out making Covid vaccination mandatory...But some states are moving toward more restrictions for unvaccinated people.

There are many individuals who are unhappy about the trend toward differentiating between the vaccinated and unvaccinated. Marco De Matteo, a young Neapolitan man who is a travel enthusiast, is angry about the situation in Italy where a “green pass” has been introduced, likening the situation to a “health and economic dictatorship.”

The pass is a digital or paper certificate that shows if someone has received at least one shot of a vaccine, has tested negative or has recently recovered from the coronavirus. The pass is now needed for any Italian citizen to access indoor bars and restaurants, cinemas, museums or gyms and will soon be required for travel and some jobs, such as teachers. Those who refuse will be suspended.

France has introduced a “health pass,” meaning that individuals have to prove they are fully vaccinated, recently tested negative, or have recently recovered from the virus if they want to access cafes, restaurants, cinemas, museums and theaters. The pass has proved controversial, stoking protests attracting thousands of people who say the pass restricts civil liberties.

Is it actually a "divide between the vaccinated and unvaccinated"?

Or is it really a divide between authoritarians and everyone else?

Hard to believe that everyone who is vaccinated supports vaccine mandates.

It appears that one side effect of the vaccines is they turn previously normal folks into raving fascists.

Of course not all vaxxed folks get this side effect, it depends on their prior mental health conditions.

That is a good point. I also think that some of the most adamant mandate pushers, are those that at the back of their minds worry they may have some lasting damage from the vaccine and want to have others in the same risk pool as they are now in.

For full disclosure, I consider the fear of COVID and the fear of Vaccine danger greatly exaggerated for both. I am just putting up a theory for the screeching mandate lovers.

Punitive actions against the class of people called "unvaccinated" is an illegal bill of attainder, prohibited by the states in Article I Section 10, and by Congress in Article I Section 9.

The unvaccinated I know are fine with their decision. It’s the vaccinated who are angry, as you can see right here every day.

Seems like a State’s Rights issue.

I can be utterly contemptuous of unvaccinated people, regarding them as no better than drunk drivers or terrorists, but if the Constitution doesn’t explicitly mention it, there is no right for the Federal Government to mandate or prohibit it.

Likewise, I can loath as totalitarian nutcases anyone who would get the jab or wear a mask, but it’s up to the state government since the Constitution doesn’t say anything.

As with anything from abortion to drugs, let the states decide and move (or get involved and change things) if you don’t like it.

They (the gov’t) are denying our right to choose. Information from both sides are confusing.

Agreed, definitely the latter. Do we know if there’s any class action suits being filed that people can join? A friend’s son is starting his freshman year at a liberal arts college and they are pushing (no mandate yet) the vaccine and if not, you need to be tested. But...they are NOT testing the vaccinated and THEIR the ones getting sick!!! Total discrimination. Don’t know how to fight back yet.

If the Statists want 100% vaccination, they should produce a 100% effective vaccine [with 0% side effects].

“Hard to believe that everyone who is vaccinated supports vaccine mandates.”

I’d say not everyone, that’s too absolute. But in my experience, most who are vaccinated support mandates. They are convinced that the unvaccinated represent a threat to their health. (Figure that one out).

That’s a funny story. We’ve been saying that this was the real intent from the start.

I’ve always said that liberals need to be dragged off to death camps before they finally learn.

Those involved in this genocide LIE about the
virus, the DNA operating system [”vaccine”],
and the definition of science.

Only censorship, fraud, the MSM and the CCP invasion
of the Republic, has enabled them to continue.

If you are vaccinated, then you have nothing to fear, right? I get vaccinations for third world travel, and I have a reasonable expectation that I wont contract a horrific disease.

They wanted to play game and follow “Flat Earth” science and now it’s own.

I Won’t forget their contrived act of moral relativism....based on fiction...

Your 100% correct with your statement. Many of the vaccinated were gullible and fell for the Media/Government deception. They are now seeing more and more reports on the adverse reactions and potential long term side affects. They regret their decision, but can not take it back. They become angry and defensive when you discuss studies that do not fit the narrative they were sold. My parents are like this, won't say it but I can tell they regret getting vaccinated.

The biased media content providers haven't blocked all of the epic, expletive-filled tirades from people who took experimental treatments and now realize they can still get sick, they can still spread it to others, and they may have to deal with health complications from their decision to believe globalists and pharmaceutical korporations.

The one video of a woman at mask mandate meeting tearing up her vaccine card asking what it was all for is pretty intense.

I don't know one single person who's angry they haven't gotten the experimental treatment. I know several who did get it and have been very quiet these last few weeks.

There will never be a frank discussion until they stop calling it a “vaccine” and admit there are SAFE,EFFECTIVE and inexpensive remedies/alternatives to the jab of slop metals,toxins,poisons and gene/DNA altering garbage.
