there's no need for the scare quotes around "optional", its still optional regardless of how much fearmongering and conspiracy stuff you spew

Fearmongering? I was literally forced to take it, with my company directly referencing Biden's order for companies > 100 to require it. I'm not sure where you get off calling it a conspiracy.

  you were not "literally forced". you were given an option. they didn't hold you down. if you want additional protections you should lobby for those, maybe form a union, but don't lie about being forced to do something.

    Your comments are incredibly disingenuous and you're the type of person who would be crying fascism under Trump. Having a gun to your head is technically a choice too. This is your argument.

      Comparing actual violence to losing your job is far more disingenuous than anything I'm doing. My opinions about vaccinations are the same now as they were before Trump was elected.

  You're "literally forced" to do tons of things in order to participate in society in any major degree for the sake of public safety and standards of living. I don't know why you people get so obsessed about this effort to avoid spreading transmissible disease and not things like the requirement to not be naked in public, or requiring your vehicle to be considered safe to drive on public roadways. Don't pretend like the government acting in the name of public safety is somehow completely unique here, and that governments have never made requirements to help prevent needless deaths before.

    Having a properly functioning automobile and wearing clothes are not comparable to having shit injected into my body. Tell me what else I need to be injected with in order to hold a job.

      > Tell me what else I need to be injected with in order to hold a job. If your employer is the US Military, there's an entire list. Unless you've been home schooled your entire life, there's plenty of vaccines required to attend K-12, and it doesn't matter if it's public, private, or parochial facilities. One could argue that without schooling the job market would be quite slim.
