It was an ad absurdum analogy to show why it's a bad idea to lie to your workplace about your vax status. The questioning poster has 2 overall posts on RVF and refers to a hypothetical company that may institute a hypothetical vax requirement after his hypothetical hiring.
The hypothetical company is going to require some kind of proof so you're not going to be able to lie or deceive about it for long.
I said that we shouldn't comply. Lying about your vax status is pretending to comply. You're not going to be able to maintain the lie for long. And it does affect every other person in the same situation, likely billions.
No one said that. What are you talking about? This isn't a philosophical discussion about the various gradations of lies and in what hypothetical situations they may be allowed.
I don't know. How does that relate to lying to your employer about your vax status?
It doesn't matter if you think it sounds cool or full of bravado. We cannot allow our employers to be the arbiters of what medication we put in our bodies and base our permission to work on that. It is a situation where individuals should think of how it affects a billion other individuals in the same boat instead of trying to temporarily game the system in the short term. Losing on this issue means that every worker in the world becomes a pharmaceutical slave with zero self-determination.
The reality is if you game the system in the short term through deception, everyone will lose in the end when the ability to lie or deceive about it is gone due to proof being required.
