Thank you for reading and commenting! Great to connect. I have been thinking about this more.. one unintended and permanent consequence is that those of us who experienced this can never forget. We have been in a way - to be ironic just for fun - “vaccinated”. Metaphorically, not against covid. Against authoritarianism! We will forever see it for what it is. And we won’t comply.

Gobsmacked is right! I know there was money given to companies for covid, at one point a list was posted somewhere where you could look up which companies received “relief funding”, which I imagine had strings attached.

You can go to the WEF web site and look up member and partner companies. Most large financial services companies are on there. Large consulting companies. Tech.. it is a very broad membership. Not sure how strong the allegiance is there in terms of what partner companies get but... imagine it is something given the success they have had in recruiting all the bigs.

Also companies who are categorized as federal contractors, like my former employer, work hard to win business from the govt. So.. not without consequence to go against the policy of a large, valuable buyer of your services.

Reading this makes me burn with rage right along with you. I'm glad you moved away from Cali. Unbelievable.

I just found you today....we are kindred spirits, except my exemption was not accepted. Neither my medical exemption nor my religious exemption were deemed worthy of consideration. God has been with me throughout, giving me guidance, giving me strength, showing me He has a plan......but yes the anger and the rage, I so relate. I will come back later with more of my story, if you are interested.

Even though I know parts of your story, to see it laid out like this absolutely infuriates me. "On the wrong side of history." Uh huh. We shall see.

So glad you're writing all of this down. Sooo much better for your health! :-) On to Part 2...

I very much empathize with you, having lost my access to nonprofit events where I earned my income over this f’in toxic sludge injection mandate. Thanks for writing this.

I saw an RFK Jr speech from 2021 that laid out how they had wargamed this over the years, with event 201 being the most recent and most predictive of what happened with Covid. He said they were drilling on how to take totalitarian control, censorship, and narratives. That was a great revelation and I am grateful for it.

However in spite of that I, like you, am still gobsmacked at how all of the people with positions of power could turn so cold hearted and evil in spite of evidence against the shots that was available and brought up by employees seeking exemptions. There must be some hidden levers of coercion, or large bribes involved. If the latter I’d love to know from whom, and how much. I’ve asked a lot of Substackers but no one yet has been able to give me an answer.

Thanks and look forward to part II.

Thank you for sharing your heartfelt story with so much honesty. Many of us have felt the same way in shock, disappointment , and disillusionment. While carrying grudges and thoughts of revenge usually hurt the owner the most, I also find that anger is a powerful motivator for making needed changes. Once corrective actions are taken, then forgiveness naturally follows as a consequence of learning and serving a greater good. Expecting forgiveness too soon binds up and interferes with the process of healing.

It’s true. We are just numbers out there.

Also it’s easy to see who is paying for the hospitals…..they have no choice.

I know how hard it was to drop out of that group but you absolutely did the right thing. I felt that exact loneliness in a group of moms whose daughters all attend Vanderbilt University with my daughter and my tennis team who I thought were all like me. These Vandy moms are very intelligent, a few are doctors the rest all have high end career’s except a few of us. Because of 2020, we were all very close.

In the fall of 2021, we were at a dinner during move in and they were all talking about the vaccine at the table. I researched it all early on and knew I would never take it. I also had covid in late January of 2020 and developed chest pain on the third day of it. I saw my heart doctor (I am an athlete and only had heart doctor for a checkup I got at age 50 and had a zero calcium score and excellent heart health). Anyway, I also tested negative for flu but had flu symptoms. I went to this doctor and after tests she said I had mild viral heart inflammation and not to worry about it. So I didn’t but it was a very scary feeling when it hit.

I read early on spike caused this inflammation and the vaccine generated spike so I was like nope!!! I told my family not to get it and all were on board except for one of my kids. Anyway, one of the doctors my asked me straight out which vaccine I took Pfizer or Moderna? An obvious ploy to learn my vaccine status. I said, neither, I am naturally vaccinated. The group gasped. I said I had already had it and had natural immunity. The doctor said, I have had patients who have gotten it again. I said have any died. She said no. I said it’s EAU and not properly tested. Anyway, they all kinda shunned me except for two but didn’t shut me all the way out. Now many of them have confided in me they wished they hadn’t gotten vaccinated.

I had to drop off my tennis team because they all appalled I didn’t get vaccinated. Tammy of them have health problems now. It’s hard and lonely to stand alone. These tennis girls now have all come back to me and wish they had made my choice.

Anyway, all of us who stood alone against this moment in time are friends and linked forever.

Did not realize until watching this clip that my employer was likely following the federal mandate which did NOT allow for testing. Also notable Biden states we need to “protect vaccinated workers from unvaccinated”

I think we who didn't fall for the scam need to really hang it on those who did. They need to learn that there are consequences. We are not used to being firm like they are. The people who enforced masks and jabs are really inside little fascists and covid was gave the perfect conditions to let that part out of them. So much for their sickly virtue signaling - "doing it for others". I could hare a parrot speaking every time I see or hear that phrase "safe and effective. Safe and effective., squawk" Total mind control. These people are mind controlled so much that they cannot see a scam when it hits them in the face. And really what is the definition of intelligence if you can't see when you're being scammed. You could have a line of Ph.D's but if you can't see when you're being scammed, then you're an idiot. Don't be scared of calling them what they deserve. They need to have egg on their faces because they caused so much harm. They forced people into losing their livelihoods if they didn't follow some mandate that was pure tomfoolery. It is amazing to us who figured out the scam almost instantly, that these people were under mind control and how bad were they going to get...were they going to turn into zombies and do whatever their operator told them? It was troublesome as those of us who didn't fall for the scam, were almost completely surrounded by those who did fall for the scam. Lay it on them, they deserve humiliation. I have no sympathy for people who ruin other people's lives especially on something they were totally wrong on.

You can forgive all you want, and tell yourself how warm & cozy it is, but I will never forgive or forget the way I was treated by the communist left when their irrational BS selves wanted to take away my bank acct, job & kids bc I would not consent to the clot shot. FCUK THEM ALL.
