How Should We Protest this Mandate?

If that's true then Biden could have announced voluntary guidelines instead of a mandate.
Biden already did that. It didn't work well enough. I understand that you'd rather have the pandemic keep going, but the rest of us don't feel that way.
 
At what point do we acknowledge that not getting the vaccine is worse than getting it…
 
Or the fearful could just stay home.

All the stress of trying to micromanage everyone they see all day long can't be good for their mental health.
I have a great idea! Keep not wearing your mask and go have a heart to heart, up close and personal chat with your governor.
 
Not really, some might say those posts show a self centered hypocrite trying to dress their selfish demands as 'respect' for others personal space... :cautious:
I'm not the one running around demanding others live by my rules. Progressive like Biden want to destroy peoples lives over it. The only thing I am guilty of is mocking their rules.

Whether or not I have gotten the vaccine is nobody's business but my own.

Fortunately I am self employed so keeping my status private and not wearing a mask is my perogative. It allows me to stand up for those who can't.
 
Anyway . . .back to the thread topic.

I am surprised that a couple of people at work have asked me why no mask today. One of them guessed it "because of Biden?"

The one that guessed has been advised by his doctor not to get the vaccine because he had COVID in the beginning and he reacts badly to the flu shot. Luckily, he has enough time in to retire when it becomes mandatory for teachers.
 
Make it a mandate then.

I tried to make nice and had guns pulled on me for it.


My suggestion to you is to avoid children if you are frightened by the maskless. Children pick up on adulrs' fear and may become fearful themselves.
Ridiculous hyperbole. 🥱
 
Good luck proving it was intentional or even happened at all, lol.

Cameras are everywhere, with many places having social distances rules, getting close enough to cough is intentional.

Jail time, and a record for assault looks great on a person all to stick it to Covid snowflakes.

It's a risk I'm willing to take

That's the libertarian equivalent of what soccer (football) players do when they act like they are injured on the soccer field at the drop of a hat.
Oh no, they are forcing me with guns! A weak lament from a weak philosophy that has no significant representation in any modern government of note.
 
The lack of eau de bullshit must give give them away.


Being in clean clothes and freshly showered gives them away quite quickly.

Real conservative men don’t go for that liberal cleanliness being next to godliness stuff. Real men smell like cattle manure

No, you're just assaulting them, unprovoked.
 
Yes I've noticed it. It's a slightly European smell.
They are not as nearly as nuanced and subtle as they think they are. They are more like a bull in a china cabinet. It makes them very easy to spot.
 
I suggest you protest by taking off your pants and running down the street. Let your boys be free. Don't let the man tell you that you need to wear pants.
I remember the time when I burned my tie to protest authoritarian dress codes. My neck needs to be FREEEEEE!!!!!

I think a lot of people will suddenly retire or quit. Those who quit will work for smaller companies or work as a contractor rather than an employee, etc..
It's not just the U.S. where mandates are being opposed. Look just to our north. Trudeau may continue as PM but his heavy handed mandates have put his position in question as Canada is busy voting.
Then elsewhere in the world, mandates are being met with strong resistance. I think this will complicate Biden's goal of more people getting vaccinated rather than encourage it.
I, too, will protest in whatever way I can. This is not the way America should be.

Interesting.

There's plenty of precedent for burning things as a protest. Flags, bras, draft cards, effigies.

Masks would be perfect. Flammable but not large enough to start an ANTIFA sized fire.
