Exactly the type of place I would have expected. The big corporations and these trendy places will go all in on their vaccines.
I'm not even against the vaccines as much as I am this stuff. I won't get it not because I'm afraid of it (AZN excluded), but because it's symbolic of me saying that what is going on here is right. Been a tough few days as I've realized among personal acquaintances I'm one of two remaining that haven't gone for it, and I'm about to be the outcast. Not one of them I've talked to understands why I die on this hill (it's just a little inconvenience, etc.) and I don't hang around raging liberals. I'm hoping they learn when the door slams shut and their dreams of normal life never happen, but I don't think they will.
I've gotten the exact same response for the same stance.
I refuse to acknowledge or legitimise this behaviour.
The first accusation I get is always "Oh you're an anti vaxxer?" then it's the " but it stops you getting it", when that's proven wrong wrong it's "it stops you spreading it" when that too is proven wrong it turns into them angrily or exasperstedly basically saying just get it, you're going to inconve ience everyone else by either causing more lockdown or gasp.. You can't go to the same places as vaccinated people.
Already my wife is trying to guilt trip me because if I don't we can't go on holiday or do the shopping.
She said I know it's stupid and wrong but why are you doing this to me. You're making our life harder... Instead of thinking yeah we should take a stand.

Its actually really frustrating to try and talk about this stuff with my brother, because he's a lawyer and I expect him to be smart, but it's like he doesn't care to actually listen to what I say. He just had a kid so I think some of it is buying into the fear mongering because of that, but it's still disheartening.
Yeah my brother who shouldn't be dumb either is the same way and will go forth on all of the liberal talking points. The thing is he doesn't practice any of what he preaches. I saw him twice last year, why wasn't I expected to only meet up outside with masks and social distancing? His kids are both boys, have been called boys from birth, are totally allowed to be boys--shouldn't they have grown up without gender until they decided? What has he done to reduce his whiteness? He has talked all of these points before, but if you were to just observe behavior you never see it.
That's where I get hung up myself. I can't say segregating or denying people things over a vaccine is wrong, then present my vaccine card to enter a bar. It's never been about the vaccine itself, I'd get it today. Tomorrow when I'm asked to prove it for something in daily life, I still have to say no. So why bother getting the shot at all?
