No discussion of politics or vaccines. It goes to show you what an immense difference the media makes. As soon as the media starts making a controversy, individuals immediately rush to certain sides. Liberals get defensive when vaccine mandates are introduced and rapidly try to justify them as much as possible. I think part of their intense justification of the mandates is a twinge of fear because they too are concerned about how the world is unfolding, but out of a state of learned helplessness they have a knee-jerk response that is completely opposite to ours, which is to run to the arms of the government.</p></blockquote><p></p>
