    so thats the libertarian agenda? you can and should die if I want you to? Eh Rand? 


    He's so full of crap.

    I'm a proud small-"L" libertarian. I'll even admit to voting for Ron (not Rand) Paul in my misspent youth (1988). And I made sure that our entire family was vaccinated at the first opportunity.

    Once more, with feeling: You do not have the right to be a plague vector. "My rights end at the tip of your nose" -- NOT deep inside your nasal cavity or somewhere in your lungs. 


    All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.

    15 years ago Rand seemed principled, even if I disagreed with him.  Now he's just a parody of himself.  Issue after issue, he isn't a libertarian, he's a contrarian.  His criminal referral to the DOJ of Fauci is just a bad joke.

    The problem as I see it, is we started with a population who don't want to (or have been taught not to) think critically. Next ingredient: distrust of 'others', to assure we're highly skeptical of those with differing opinions. Add several mountains of misinformation from positions of trust, and you have a pretty damn good undue thought influence system. 

    That system has created this reality, and while this cohort likely contains the stupid, the ignorant, the selfish - it also contains legitimately fearful individuals. I'm frustrated that those legitimately fearful individuals are now being grouped as loonies, or ineligible for empathy.

    Until the megaphones for misinformation are removed, people will be duped into doing the wrong thing (or, more specifically, the thing the misinformation manufacturers are seeking them to), and until that point, I truly feel for those who have been intentionally misled to believe something seriously dangerous. To the disingenuous folks amongst that cohort, I have little to no respect for, but also little to no ability to differentiate those from the authentic ones.

    It worked out so well with their power grid, after all.

    I'm going Thursday for my first of two injections that will hopefully help w my 5G reception.

    I will finally go and get my shot and was shocked at how many questions they asked in order for me to do it.

    I tried to do a "walk in" on 4 times in the last month and was told there are no more walk ins so I don't know why they keep reporting in my local news that they are.

    What did they ask that you were surprised at? I don’t recall being asked anything more than basic demographic info.

    I think you’ll be disappointed in the effect on your 5G. I haven’t seen an improvement and I’m considering a complaint.

    Asked for my SS number, that one surprised me.

    I didn't expect it to be like a formal doctors visit, like the pamphlets you fill out on arrival.

    I'm going to be disappointed then that my 5G will still be subpar.  Hopefully the nano's that I'm injected with get upgraded w the booster a few months down the line.  I'm joking of course but I was surprised at all the questions they ask.  Insurance, job.  Weird.

    I didn't get any of that. I did get social I think, but not insurance or job.  But I got mine in March/April.
