In the wake of massive Southwest Airlines cancelations and disruptions, a whistleblower within the company reached out to PJ Media to confirm that employees, including pilots, gate agents, flight attendants, and others, are fighting back against the mandatory vaccines ordered by the federal government. “It’s a coordinated protest,” said the source, on the condition of anonymity.
The employees have coordinated on social media platforms and are standing up at what they believe is a pivotal moment in America that will determine whether the country remains free or slides into despotism. “We know we can stop this,” the whistleblower said. “And if we don’t do it now, it will be too late. Everyone is very excited!”
Southwest Airlines has denied that there is a “sick-out” and has had the mainstream media running cover for them all week. USA Today put out a strange multi-part tweet listing all the reasons why the sudden shutdown of thousands of flights is anything but a protest. I don’t know when Columbus Day became “peak holiday” travel day, but I guess it’s the new excuse. (At least they didn’t cite the perfectly clear weather again.).
“They’re all going to look like fools soon,” said the insider. That would be nothing new for the fake news media. But it’s not just Southwest Airlines employees who have conscientious objections to mandates. According to the source, there are 22 airlines, along with truckers and other transportation employees represented in their ranks and more disruptions are to come. The employees are all joining FreedomFlyers.org, a website that was set up a few weeks ago to connect like-minded people and to fundraise for the effort of fighting against mandatory vaccines. They released a video that keeps being removed from social media but can be seen on their website.

NOT what their ‘ceo’ said. And of course he ought to know. Right. Just like the Jacksonville ATC center wasn’t shut down.
Hold your ground, show the rest of us what it means to fight back for freedom! This is a rallying cry for all of us. This poising of
humanity has to stop NOW!!
Let’s go brandon!
They should all quit, and form charter businesses. I think they would do quite well.
Government regulators would cripple any such effort.
and has had the mainstream media running cover for them all week.
Very true.
ONE PERSON OR GROUP STANDING UP TO TYRANNY ENCOURAGES OTHERS. They don’t want this.
One interesting post in the Kunstler blog (Clusterf*&^ Nation—The Waiting is the Hardest Part) suggested that one thing that is happening out there is that employees with many years and lots of accrued vacation and sick time were calling out sick or taking vacation to use up their use or lose time before bailing on the exact date of various vaxx mandates.
If anyone has more info on this, please post it.
Gosh.
Remember when President Trump was President and things worked?
It wasn’t the weather.
It wasn’t air traffic controllers.
It wasn’t the vaccine mandates.
Guess it didn’t happen!
What is the difference between this and a “sickout”?
Here is a 777 pilot’s take on what is going on in the airline industry. He isn’t with SWA. Video is about 12 minutes. It is not just pilots.

Excellent video—thanks.
It is the combination of many other factors plus the vaccine mandates that is going to cause a dark winter.
If your employer starts treating you like a farm animal subject to medical experimentation, then it is reasonable for employees to decide to give the employer the middle finger in return.
If not us, who? If not now, when?
Glad you liked it. Juan hinted at it, but didn’t go into details in this video. Union piloting rules can be very complicated. If you are a heavy pilot, you likely can’t say take this job and shove it and go to work for another airline in the same position. If a pilot switches airlines, they start from the ground floor.
Yeah, pilots have the toughest situation—but the lower paid support staff can easily bail—and you can’t run an airline without them.
Ditto that..
