In principle, it’s forced labor. There is little difference between this and slavery.
Therefore, probably not a good idea.
concerning recent threads about providing building repairs or other services for a church, i am wondering about how the wt stand would hold up under legal scrutiny.. example; a jw is self employed in the hvac business.
a church calls him to provide routine service for their heating and cooling system.
suppose it is in area which is predominately of a certain race or ethnicity.

most of my friends have gotten the vaccines and are quite confident that it’s just what the doctor ordered.
i’m not confident with dr. fauci.
i don’t like the fact that the makers of the vaccines are not held responsible if someone taking the vac develops an illness or even death.
They are trying really hard to justify holding on to it because, well... that’s what they like.
And to be honest, a lot of the lockdown governors are on the left and are quite anti-capitalist. I believe there is a high probability that having the power to halt evil, racist capitalism is beyond appealing to them.

@TD and @FFGhost:
Just make sure you don’t conflate opposition to FORCED vaccinations, whether that comes in the form of a law or “passports” required to live a normal life, with opposition to vaccinations in general.
To be clear, I have received my first Pfizer shot, and I am due to get the second in about two weeks. I would have preferred to wait, but other things have come up, and after weighing the factors in my life, I made the decision.
But the point is - it was MINE to make. There should be no reason for the continued shenanigans. The lockdowns and the mask mandates are just ways of holding on to the power the politicians have been able to grab recently. They are trying really hard to justify holding on to it because, well... that’s what they like.
Enough.

The risk for under 60 individuals is substantially less than the flu. Therefore what matters is that 1) individual choice respected, and 2) we open up completely, no masks.
Not a “new normal”. Rather, good ol fashion normal.
this is a good watch.. i agree with it 100% - the people pushing for everyone having to carry id are the ones that have shown over and over again that they can't be trusted with people's information.
the tech companies want it because they would be able to link online tracking and information logging with people's real-world activities.
the government wants it because they would have control over people and movement.. both should be chilling to anyone with half a brain.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uggvgke0n8o.
Oh no! The African variant! If you get the super deadly African variant, you only have a 99.8% chance of survival, instead of 99.9%!!!!

@Steel: They shouldn’t be required to do anything they wouldn’t do for the flu.
someone gets shot and or killed and hundreds of people decide to loot and destroy businesses or whatever else is in their path.
what does this do to make things better?
i really don’t get how they think it makes things better or solves anything..
You’ve got to hand it to them... they can do all that looting and rioting with their pants half way down to their ankles. Amazing.

anyone following the derek chauvin trial?.
if you are actually following it, not just listening to the media, you will likely realize that there is a huge gap between what is going on in court and what is being reported in the media.. if the trial was fair, i think he should be acquitted.
there is plenty of reasonable doubt about the cause of death (his dealer doesn't want to testify because he could be guilty of 3rd degree murder for selling him a fatal amount of fentanyl) and even doubt over whether the officer even had his knee on the guys neck or did anything counter to what they were meant to do as per policy.. but is it fair?
@Steel: I think you’ve pulled the I-used-to-be-like-you-but-now-I’m-enlightened-and-only-morally-despicable-people-disagree-with-me bull shit before.
It doesn’t work, and it is, in fact, bull shit.
Argue facts. Not bull shit.

@min: How else do you expect them to get their weaves?
