I believe about 1/3 of Americans did not get the MRNA shot? And about 1/4 more stopped after the first set.

Many who did comply were against it just trying to keep their job etc

I’m from the government and I’m here to knock the Bill of Rights out of you.

I never would have thought in a million years that so many people in this country were that weak minded.

For too long, there was a widespread belief among Americans that somehow, the human condition had passed us by and that we were incapable, as a country, of wrongdoing.

If the net result of all of this is that we all walk with some humility in our step, it will be at least one positive takeaway.

All government agencies are now suspect. Like you, I once trusted the CDC and now see that it like everything in government is nothing but politics.

Trust the science they say, while refusing to admit men cannot be women...

I’d estimate that 80% of FReepers drank the Kool Aid. Those of us who admitted boycotting the clot shot were ostracized.

Yup. Asians wear masks because the air back home is so filthy.

They are dumb enough to think it’s hiding their faces.

Yet the sheeple complied

I did not take the jab either. There were far too many games being played and I decided that not getting the mRNA was the hill I would die on if necessary.

Since I had to get it for work I did some research on it and how long it would last. Particularly because I picked up a case of pericarditis whose symptoms started the week I got the vaccine.

It’s 9 years for the infected cells pumping out the spike proteins to die off. I’ve got 6 left. It seems my pericarditis symptoms are subsiding about the same rate. 3 years ago I had to go to the emergency room. Not today tho.

I am so sorry. I have nothing but sympathy for those suffering negative effects. Our leaders failed us, en masse.

Then name the “lemmings.” Slandering FReepers with that broad brush is not the way to go.
