Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?
 
I just want a cool apocalypse where there are no cops and little traffic. That's it. Can't even get that.

@deeplyhigh I've been honestly answering the "Vaxed?" question the whole time in hopes that the number might help scare the bean counters. I can't bring myself to start lying now. Open defiance or none.
That is a respectable stance. I tend to be a loophole finder until pushed into a corner where no more wiggle room exists. When everyone else was getting their jabs in the spring, I opted for lying by omission because nobody asked directly if I was or not. Now, I have been coerced into answering by HQ to continue doing the parts of my job I enjoy the most, so fuck em. They get the answer they want to CYA and I get the thrill of knowing I am a plague spreader who could kill all their Grandmas at any moment.
 
A few thoughts now that I've blown off some steam:
1. I dont believe they expect this to hold up in court. But they know that issuing this rule change gives businesses an excuse to mandate vaccines when they might have otherwise feared the backlash.
2. Much like the eviction moratorium it gives cover to states/localities to enact heir own, harder to challenge, mandates.

I know there's a lot of sound and fury at #resisting the mandates, but my real interest is how many that will stand their ground in the coming weeks. Talk is easy. Will they back up their talk when the feds start knocking on doors?
Oddly enough I'm more willing to take my chances with the feds than work. I owe something to work. For all that people bitch about not getting paid what they're worth, I do very little and feel like I get paid quite a lot. Or I might just have some small town indoctrination I've taken with me into the corporate world like an idiot.
Fuck the feds. Always.
Might be just that I get a better chance of looking like a martyr if the gestapo take me... idk. I'm still sorting through this vax mandate. Thought I'd have left my job by the time it hit.

How soon till we see:

* The Taliban offering ASSISTANCE with liberating Americans from tyranny
* American citizens asking the Taliban for ASSISTANCE with liberating us from Tyranny

You do not want to go down this road, for this is its own monkey's paw. But I wouldn't raise an eyebrow if we start seeing it.
 
READ A DIFFERENT BOOK
These people have read only two books. One is Potter.
The other is this:

Boomers/modern conservatives ALWAYS say they will stand up to shit, but then they never do. If you're still optimistic about any of this shit, you're just naive and/or haven't been paying attention.
You're right. It's also worth recognizing that people on here and elsewhere are allergic to organizing, so much so here that it could be said to be against the site rule to not get involved. I know this isn't the place for that sort of thing and I'm not sure I'd want it to be, but there really isn't organization at all on this side of things for any kind of action, let alone street protests.

People are that way. People need someone or something to tell them what the plan is, someone or something that gives the impression that there is a long game being played and what they are doing is helping with it. Without that, even if people want to, they just won't do anything. Almost every mass movement in modern history has been astroturfed in some way, or rather the result of some strong hand directing the matter, and certainly the modern left wing ones are all sponsored and organized by one growth or another of the regime. With everything else going on, I would not doubt they've done research in to what it takes to get people moving and are actively manipulating the required catalysts as benefits them.

There's a lot that could be said about this but I'll just say when a leader won't nominate themselves, it can fall on the crowd to more or less force someone to be a leader for them. It's something that has happened before. It's risky, but nothing can happen without some form of leadership, and that leader putting people to work on the more mundane logistical side of whatever kind of effort. Of course, action can be counter productive, and it would be bad to be baited in to something the other side is ready to exploit. But at the same time a total lack of preparation and capability is a certain loss condition.

I suppose that most organization happens among small groups offline, and online messaging is mostly used to rally the troops. One distributed pattern would be small groups of two to four people capable of managing themselves, who can autonomously respond to relevant dispatches. Even establishing that dispatch network and the sources of information it uses is something to figure out. Left wing groups last year had networks of people inside political machines helping inform them where their pressure would be worthwhile, not that opposition to them can or should behave symmetrically. My thoughts are still scattered on all this, but I really hope more people are at least thinking about it, receptive to it, maybe even weaving baskets with similarly minded people in real life, and not just blaming the boomers, as bad as they are.

Point being, if there were organization that could direct you to meaningful action, are you willing and prepared to participate? Anything from staffing crucial polling locations, to helping /ourguy/s gain power, to being ready to act when one of our communities needs help, to being prepared for the worst. While on the broad scale we're often shit out of luck, by having people working together to identify and act on worthwhile uses of our time, and by looking a lot less like pedophiles while doing it, we can make a lot of jannies real mad.

You may have been asking more rhetorically, but yes. I actually think I said as much earlier in the thread. We might differ on what type of action is meaningful, tho.
 
Seeing people legitimately cheering this forced mandate on without realizing the precedent it sets makes me sick to my stomach. I have to say, if not for this community of like-minded individuals, I may have lost my sanity by now. I know that sounds pitiful, but that's just how far clownworld has pushed me.
Those who are cheering this on are no longer people. They are nigger cattle. They deserve nothing but contempt and scorn from you. Do not try to feel empathy for them. They cannot critically think and in fact, they fear critical thinking. They just want to consume and obey.

All they deserve is the future they are choosing and inshallah they keep pushing their bullshit "trust the science" narrative on all of us they will receive far worse.
 
If the mandates ARE just a distraction, then we should keep our eyes on Afghanistan.

I don't mean ignore the mandates, just that it's all things we knew that they would do. The reactions will be funny, of course, but in the end, this is only to make him look more like a clown than a monster.

And with the anniversary in 2 days, you know the Taliban is gonna do something.
I hope they genocide those sex workers like they promised but I'll take the stoning of bacha bazi faggots live on 9-11.

It won't be the Taliban, it will be Russia. Maybe through a third party but definitely them. The irony would be delicious.
 
I'm so annoyed by this. As a fat man in my 30's I was going to go get the vaccine next time I went to my local grocery store now that it's approved. But I work at a place with 300 employees that does federal contract work, so I know I'm going to be mandated.

The mandate is the one thing that is going to push me back from getting it.

Not sure what I'm going to do now.
