I am not an anti-vaxxer

The article writer started with an apology.

Apologies are for losers.

The first mistake is to take these kabbalists seriously.

Disregard them and forge ahead with MAGA.

It’s our country, not theirs.

Using a pejorative label made-up and used by the bullies he exposes.
Coward.

And, it explained, ā€œThe navy has been particularly sensitive to the pandemic, because of the risk that a single Covid case could infect an entire ship or submarine at sea, forcing it out of action.ā€

Given the very short incubation period of the Corona virus, how could someone at sea for weeks at a time - e.g., on a submarine - suddenly "come down" with the bug?

(I understand that under different circumstances - e.g., after just returning from Liberty - one could fall ill.)

Regards,

Yes, the people who bleat the loudest and wring their hands the most about “bullying” are the worst bullies there are.

Otherwise, great article. Thanks for trying to reason with people.

This is about purging people from private business, government agencies and our military who are willing to stand up for personal freedom.

There has always been the threat that service academy cadets/midshipmen and ROTC scholarship cadets could be required to pay for the cost of their education if they tried to leave the military before their service obligation was up (normally 2 years service for every year of education).

This was to keep out people who just joined to try and get a free college education.

Itā€™s a different story to try and recover money spent for military specific training (I.e. SEAL training).

I donā€™t know how they would justify that.

But what I cannot possibly understand is the threatening, vindictive, heavy-handed bullying in conjunction with the mandates.

Holy Warrior Syndrome

There are too many people (mostly on the left) who live sad, lonely, pathetic lives devoid of any meaning or purpose and the only way they can try and dull the pain of their otherwise miserable existence is to give themselves a cause in which they can constantly virtual signal and shame others. This cause becomes their religion and any lie, hate and means in the name of their new religion used to ā€œGet those Infidelsā€ is justified.

They hate their lives and they hate themselves and their lives have no purpose or meaning and when they see other happier people it makes them jealous and angry, so they desperately try to find an outlet for their anger and lash out by attempting to convince themselves that their lives might be terrible and meaningless but at least they are better than those filthy smokers, racist, climate change deniers, anti-vaxxers, Conservatives or whatever the latest group the government and media tells them to hate.

Sadly Holy Warrior Syndrome has probably existed since the dawn of man and will be with us until the Sun goes Red Giant

The writer’s “fact” is that he was trying to prove he wasn’t one of those crazy anti-vaxxer nuts.

He already lost the argument before he started.

It’s easy for me to imagine a scenario in which someone who had planned to get vaccinated changes his mind and doesn’t—not out of spite but out of civil disobedience.
