Yep. Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep,
Couple minor nits, that on the whole on neither here nor there.
YEP on fear (and greed). They colour our every day decisions, and major and are the two most powerful motivators.
YEP. Those being thrown under the bus and no “offsetting, balance”. And who...”the have nots”
YEP on it’s only once we weigh everything, all aspects and cost...anything less is just half the story
Minor nit on why. Fear and greed. And as long as it’s someone else paying the prices. The silent majority is doing what it does best.
/crickets or virtue signalling.
Thanks Impact, that was well worth the time
one other things thats been driving me nuts. As people throw words like sheep around ( at both “camps”).
I seriously don’t understand ( I actually do, I’m being polite). Why people feel the need to share “I’ve been vaxxed” on FB
that is acting sheeplike and wanting to be part of a herd
people share what they eat at every meal so why would being vaxxed by any different for them.Quote:

They are proud of being responsible citizens and want others to know.
There’s telling friends/family..
And feeling to need to share it on FB. To what end?
Virtue signal?
feel part of a group? A herd?
oh Look at me, I got vaxxed?
it’s not unlike when Notre damned burned and people......
You need to get another job to take your mind off other people’s business.Quote:

And like the Dr in impacts video talks about. Say anything that’s not with the program/herd and....good job proving one of her points
Guess that goes for on here as well. There is a herd mentality on this forum. Full of the same stuff as other herds. Don’t dare go against the group.. And that is ironic , when they call others , sheep...Lol.
I’m trying to lead the herd. The herd of facts.
Or as trump would say, 'alternative facts'. lol.
Which facts are those Glen?
Things that an expert in medical ethics has serious problems with? Not the least of which is when anything that is said/questioned that doesn’t go along with the narrative the response is dismiss. Ridicule etc and we’re seeing in this thread?
Why do you think Companies and others hire influencers in Social media theses days. Why are they even called influencers? Because manipulating people to do this or that is ineffective? To guide and influence “sheep”.
With respect to social media, this wouldn’t be the first time , things like cancel culture, virtue signaling, etc have been mentioned.
Some might change their profile pics to “I’m vaxed” because they are feeling needy and want some likes. Some to feel part of a group, some because it’s virtuous.
The reality is, there is no need. That is, unless of coarse it’s the only way a person communicates with close friends and family. Which in itself is sad, albeit a different topic. But does also touch on “public discourse”
I don’t know about anyone else, but I tend to talk about things I’m doing with close friends and family. Meaning by the time I got my shot, they knew...Did your spouses, parents, children, close friends not know???? This the need to announce it to the world?
If society has reached a point where we all need to change profile pics, to declare “we stand with you Notre Dame”, or “I’m vaxxed”
Weep for the children.
Will say, not a single family member in our two families have done that. We have talked about it, quite a bit. And that includes RNs, and A GP.
One other tenet the expert mentioned was people’s right to make informed decisions. Give them all the facts, so the risk/benefits can be weighed. And ultimately it’s their choice. Last I checked we believed in freedom.
And we don’t need 100% compliance. Just about 70%.
Which means....
Just facts.
Wonder whether she'll resign her position on principle now that her employer is requiring mandatory vaccinations to live in residence.

There is one thing for sure not a single teacher should be allowed to obstain from taking the Vaccine. Especially with how much crying they did. Any teacher that even suggest they should be allowed to opt out should be fired.
So far without the vaccine no teacher in Ontario has died from the virus. . What are they crying about lol.Quote:
