Um its called a digital passport. Really not much difference ...

People now being forced & aggressively pressured into taking experimental drugs agaisnt their will to make a living and need digital ID to access large parts of society for a virus that has an insanely rate for healthy people & almost 90% of at-risk vaccinated. With no off ramp in sight & whatever the Governments decide to inject you with going forward.

Nothing to be dramatic about. This is not normal, this wont end well & is now real life.

I lose all respect for you as a human being the moment you compare health ordinances during a pandemic to racial segregation and the holocaust. Anything you have to say past that point is worthless.

All because I made a comparison on how some people are labelling other people.
And I'm double vaccinated who have encouraged other people to get vaccinated. But i'm not going to demonize those who choose not to.

I honestly can't stand this comparison. It's dishonest, lazy, attention seeking, and an insult to anyone who has actually experienced real atrocities.

It screams of people being shielded from adversity their whole lives so the second that they’re faced with some, they lack the coping skills to deal with it in a rational, non-self centred way.
Adversity sharpens some while breaking others.
A truly sad state of affairs.

Unless you are old enough and/or from a country where you have seen how it happens then you don't know what we have just given up. A very, very precious thing. Hear me.

Its not actually about vaccinated vs. Not at this point. And it is not conspiracy.

This is very grave. How will you get this back? At some point it will be used against you when you are on the wrong side. And to your shock you will be ignored and swatted aside when you protest. You will have nothing to stand on. No constitution. No precedence. No advocate.

Its not drama. It is devastating to see.
And it is not small. It is monumental.
It may already be too far.

But mostly, they are just telling you exactly what they think. And it's the same as most of the people in your life think. The ones not on the net thinking the exact same way of people expressing the opinions you are. They just haven't told you. And its the large majority of people at this point. The ones you call fools, nazi's etc. .... you really think they have the time of day any of your rhetoric and feel they have to sit there and take it?

You guys can ignore it. It's your life. But don't blame anyone but yourself for the consequences.

PS I did risk assessments for part of a living. You don't even know what they are or you wouldn't be anywhere close to these opinions.


You took the time to respond - so yes you do have time and most importantly, feel the need to respond contrary to what you say. You cant help yourself seeing people like me.

As for consequences, Im out dining at a restaurant against the mandates and heading out to a private social gathering thereafter. When you corner people, we always find a way.

As for risk assessments, I’ll gladly be the judge of mine. As if your opinion speaks for everyone; I never take the opinion of someone you wouldnt seek advice from in the first place.


Dude.. this is a chat board. I've cut everyone like you out of my real life. Now ask yourself how many of your friends and acquittances did that to you and somehow ... you don't even know it yet.

I don't care if you take my opinion! I'm not giving you any advice either. Sure you're out at all those restaurants. Flying? Vacations? Raptors games? Golf tournaments? Friend's lost? Hunker down in your defiance for dinner against the mandate!!! Its going to be a long one after Oct 22, and you've earned every bit of it.

What... you think calling people fools makes them want to give you life advice? Lol....no that's not what I'm doing here. :lol:


Most of my circle shares the same views fortunately. We dont go around demeaning people for their views like the pro-jab cult. If you want to get it do whats best for you. But stfu about doing it for others or any of the typical woke virtue signalling.

We’ll be fine, worry about yourself because Im not the one trying to talk down to others on an internet board about their own choices and risk assessment.

Why do conspiracy theorists never look at the many holes in their conspiracy theories?

Everything is so black and white.

I don’t know what’s worse.

Being too afraid to take the vaccine in spite of the societal benefits or actually thinking you’re defending our liberal democracy from a totalitarian coup attempt by I guess the Trudeau government.

COVID is the Nazis.
Vaccines and other considerate citizens are the allies.
Masks are the armour.
Antivaxxers and Antimaskers are the ones who stood by and watched the atrocities happen and did nothing.

Responsible for my actions? Ok there Hitler.

When you unleash unsubstantiated hate, it is only fair game to get a taste of your own medicine. And yes a good faction of the pro-jab cult absolutely conduct youselves like Nazis and sheep.

That said, the restaurant meal with other freedom fighters tonight was great. Looking forward to supporting more of these businesses whom are true patriots.

https://news.yale.edu/2021/10/01/unvaccinated-reinfection-sars-cov-2-likely-study-finds


Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been much uncertainty about how long immunity lasts after an unvaccinated person is infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Now a team of scientists led by faculty at Yale School of Public Health and the University of North Carolina at Charlotte have an answer: Strong protection following natural infection is short-lived.

“Reinfection can reasonably happen in three months or less,” said Jeffrey Townsend, the Elihu Professor of Biostatistics at the Yale School of Public Health and the study’s lead author.

“Therefore, those who have been naturally infected should get vaccinated. Previous infection alone can offer very little long-term protection against subsequent infections.”
