Vaccine Conversation Today

Was in a production meeting waiting for it to start. People were talking about random things and of course "Covid" gets brought up. (please realize the irony that I am in a closed & unventilated room with these people..because they were willing to share their vaccine status they get to be maskless...because i refuse to share my status they assume i am not vaccinated and therefore force me to wear a mask).

Production Assistant: "Hey, did you all notice how its literally ONLY the engineers and programmers who don't want to get vaccinated? Why is that?"

Machinist: "They have critical thinking skills. Most of the people here (motioning to the room) do what they're told at work and in life".

Room went dead silent, a few people chuckled, am starting to get really turned off by people. =/ Was very uncomfortable sitting there as a "second class" employee with a mask on.

    All seriousness, I agree with every point you made. I question the vaccine a lot when it is known not to prevent it, or the transmission of it, yet the government is pushing it so hard then trying to squeeze us that choose not to take it by requiring it (or a negative test within the last week) to go places or, in some cases, to even go to work. What the government is trying to do is raising too many red flags in my mind. There was a meme I saw a week or so ago that was something to the effect of "ever wonder how people were led to their deaths in 1930's Germany. you're seeing it now" (again, something to that effect) and at first I blew it off. Then I thought about it and realized how true it is. Not leading us to death but leading (most of) us to blindly follow those in power without question. One thing I have learned in my 36 years is to question everything. I question this and what this administration is doing.

    I shall take my tinfoil hat off now and go back to work.

  • As someone who has studied and researched the 1930's and 1940's for about 20 years, I can tie many events to modern day life in this country. Mussolini used the media to overthrow and take control of Italy. Lenin/Stalin rounded up political protestors and locked them away without even a trial. Those are just the major ones.
