So well thought out and articulated! Thank you for posting this. I think many people have succumbed to the media terror brought on by this man made pandemic, and are now completely paralyzed with fear. Few have the courage to speak against the common narrative, or even if they are suspicious about it, would just rather keep their opposing ideas to themselves for fear of ridicule.
They have given up their right to bodily autonomy just so they can have a taste of 'life as it used to be'. It is an imagined freedom where one has to constantly use a vaccine pass to participate in any day to day activity.
But what is truly sad, is that we the people have have been pitted one against another. Families and friends have fallen out with each another over this topic. The amount of hate that has surfaced from arguments regarding the vaccine is unbelievable! Time may eventually heal these rifts, but these stolen years, we will never get them back.
We are in a war and you are absolutely correct; just saying no isn't going to remedy the situation. We have to stand up for what is right and true.
