It's sadly true that for lack of a better phrase, the 'elites' in society that should be in leadership roles are basically everyone that refused to take the vaccine.
I say elites not for social standing but for ability, they had the critical reasoning to question motive regardless of source, do proper cost/benefit anaylsis and from there come to a decision. There's too many sheep in society and not enough dogs to ensure they stay away from the wolves.
The families. They drove a god damned wedge straight through families. We lost family members from these lies. I can't tell you how many people I know were emotionally blackmailed with: "You either do what you're told, or you'll never see your loved one again", including me.
The worst part is how many people still think they did the right thing.
"But it would have been worse if we hadn't gotten the shot, if we hadn't worn the masks, hadn't lay at the feet of people who literally see us as cattle and licked their hands like dogs"
Family friend's mother died in a Cuomo death home. No amount of discussion or reason will convince them that anything other than "someone who didn't wear a mask" killed her and not the policies that deliberately were enacted to get Orange Man.
Worse than driving wedges was the sheer amount who were straight up killed by Covid policy or the clot shot. Evil shit like deliberately putting infected next to vulnerable old people, removing dementia patients from human contact, stopping or at least discouraging health screenings or appointments/surgeries for fatal illnesses. Don't even get me started on suicide and retardation of child development.
What's worse is how many didn't comply, but also never spoke up.
For the elites, almost none of them complied, and they just lied and faked it the rest of the way. Only the plebs need injections or masks. Governor Newsom's photo of "the help" wearing masks while him and his buddies enjoy themselves in an "essential" winery comes to mind.
But then, don't forget the nurses. All that shit, and all those TikToks, and all those dances, all the shaming tactics, then they got told to take the injection or get fired... and hundreds of thousands chose to lose their careers. They didn't protest, they didn't riot, they didn't really even come out and publicly shame anyone with their union; but they did lose their job because they knew how dangerous it was.
I lost some friends expressing doubts about the vaccine, there were others that bought into the vaccine but knew me well enough that they still remained friends and are now getting closer trusting me more because I gave my doubts and distrust to them as a warning.
I didn't go shouting on social media (Because I don't use it) but tried to notify as many people as possible in my circles not to trust it. I just wish I could've been more forceful in getting not to take it without risking losing them all.
I think some of them feel a twinge of guilt, but would rather lie to themselves and gaslight you, rather than admit what they did.
When you realise you're surrounded by people who will in fact stab you in the back if the media ever ordered it you know on instinct what topics are going to cause problems if you bring them up.
Once they've been ideologically and psychologically captured, you're suddenly walking around like a Jedi with Stormtroopers, hoping Order 66 doesn't come down.
It's happened before too. The Rawandan Genocide was started by invectives from radio broadcasters: "Cut down the tall trees!" Suddenly if you weren't wearing the correct clothing, your own neighbors would chop you to bits.
They'll claim they aren't like that... but they are, and they almost don't even want to believe it.
It's a bit worse in the very liberal areas. It's not just friends, it's everyone who will try to shut you down. It becomes just another talking point I don't talk about in any situation. Then you up the insanity like the CHAS having artwork that had to cost $10,000 to make and somehow was made in a day. Everyone around you says it was a sign of devotion, when the entire thing is an obvious set up. The drone footage that got everything exactly right, and shots of people making the art had to take more than was said. But you go to anyone, even in the art scene who knows, and they don't see it.
That's the game we had to play. I didn't want to be especially harsh because I was afraid I'd never see my family again for the same reason. They were pressuring me to get it, so I told them I wasn't a fan of the mRNA version, but I would wait until I could get the Novavax shot, which was protein based. That excuse seemed to work when people asked or pressured.

But you know what's the absolute worst?
The families. They drove a god damned wedge straight through families. We lost family members from these lies. I can't tell you how many people I know were emotionally blackmailed with: "You either do what you're told, or you'll never see your loved one again", including me.
I hate them for what they did to innocent people.
No Amnesty. NEVER Amnesty.
The worst part is how many people still think they did the right thing.
"But it would have been worse if we hadn't gotten the shot, if we hadn't worn the masks, hadn't lay at the feet of people who literally see us as cattle and licked their hands like dogs"
It's a desperate post-hoc rationalization to make themselves believe they aren't evil.
Family friend's mother died in a Cuomo death home. No amount of discussion or reason will convince them that anything other than "someone who didn't wear a mask" killed her and not the policies that deliberately were enacted to get Orange Man.
I don't even know if it was about Orange Man, or if Cuomo's staff was just that blindingly, criminally, incompetent.

I won't get you started on it, because I'll get too mad too.

Yeah I get the feeling, tried to cover it by knowing who my 'true' friends are but doesn't hurt less with that knowledge.

The fight has been completely removed from the American spirit.
