Currently, Joe Biden’s Vaccine Mandate Doesn’t Exist. It’s Just A Press Release (thefederalist.com)

Even more importantly, if you are injured by the jab due to a non-federal employee mandate, your employer will not be covered.
Currently, the only mandate that exists is for Federal Employees and Military Personnel. That means if you know anyone who was coerced into getting the vaccine by their employer — even more so if their religious exemptions were denied — they have the ability to really sue the shit out of the company that forced them to comply to keep their job.
The idea that businesses had no choice but to comply with the "mandate" is completely false.
This is a huge realization once people actually begin to grasp the implications. It means that businesses can't hide behind the law to protect themselves, they forced people of their own volition because the media told them to and they believed it.
How long this remain the case I couldn't say, as the situation is very clearly still developing. Nonetheless, it's really important that people are informed and know this sort of information because it protects them — or in other cases, perhaps protects their business.
This article does a great job of breaking it all down.
I hope that it helps at least someone out there, since I know I've seen many people voicing concern over the issue.

IMHO they did it for another reason: it's harder to sue thousands of companies than it is to sue one government.

If the government did it there would be one centralized coordinated lawsuit by large organizations. When companies do it, it's up to individual citizens to sue their employers. That's expensive and risky and few people are able to do it.

The government does it this way to circumvent rights and to avoid accountability.

Do people still not understand the relationship between government and big business? They swap people back and forth from regulatory agencies to executive boards all the time. It's the same authoritarian dipshits running everything. When the government's hands are tied by the Constitution or existing law, they signal the plan to their allies in business, who gleefully enforce whatever unconstitutional policy they like under the protection of "muh private business". That's exactly what happened with the vax mandates. The government can't do it themselves, so they fired a starting pistol that triggered all of the corporations to do it for them.

I always kinda thought this would never actually happen.... but it still has an effect of all these employers making it happen even though there is a mandate. Not to mention the original speech thing was so absurd probably to distract from the Afganistan disaster.

Luckily my employer so far is just paying us to get the vaccine if we want it [no penalty so far if we don't, unless the Gov makes them] 1000 dollars.

Tactically, this is excellent for us.

This is The Cathedral resorting to soft power alone to try and push tyranny. Which, to be clear, is an absolutely horrific mistake. I'm ecstatic our tyrants are this fucking stupid.

Tyranny works best through subjectivity and arbitrary, disproportionate violence. You use fear as a force multiplier to keep people acting ultra-cautious with their actions. For example, you want to tyrannize motorists: remove the speed limit signs, drop the speed limit to 15 mph. Patrol irregularly, but aggressively. For an entire day, there's no cops on the road. The next day, put 15 cops on the road. The next day: no one again. The next day, 15 cops only in the morning. Keep people guessing. Promote over-zealous arrests (arrest people doing 10 mph and let the courts free them). Let people with "back the blue" stickers go through, let them speed past the old speed limit. Occasionally: stop someone who has a criminal history, and beat the fucking holy hell out of him on the traffic stop. The question everyone has going down this road, at all times, is the same: "Am I next?"

People do respond to this. You're fear conditioning the population. Disproportionate violence doesn't generate the level of outrage you'd think it does. People don't rally together when they are hit with an overwhelming and chaotic force. They actually back down because it's unpredictable, and it does

Instead, they've resorted to soft power alone to solve their problems. They're not going slow enough to normalize it. They're just asserting soft power, and teaching people to become more and more resistant to their demands.

It's like changing the speed limit to 15 mph, leaving all the speed limit signs up, then not pulling people over, just ticketing them $700 and leaving it in their mailbox. Then when the people don't pay it, having the cops come to their place of work or and yell at them. You're just gonna teach people to get mad and be obstinate.

It's the big government equivalent of 'Will no one rid me of this troublesome priest?'. Try and make the employer the hatchet man and absolve the important people, the government, from responsibility.

Coward's tactic.
