I've had more than one person say they really wanted the vaccine to people, but in private once I said I wasn't getting it told me that they were really reluctant to get it too, but felt the need to fake it. I think that's a factor too: some people are pretending to want it, but really deep down don't. Since this raises a ton of issues around who fakes it and who doesn't, and the differences between them, I think that that's part of why I think it's so hard to tell.
One of the reasons wearing the mask gives me so much anxiety is because it makes me part of the big Progressian fake-out of manufactured compliance. When I am not brave enough to wear the mask (because of my dread of confrontation) I become guilty because I am contributing to the glamour of mask normalcy. I take on part of that karma, and as I mentioned earlier, that karma is coming for everyone who benefited from the wholesale ruin of lives from COVID fearmongering.
I still do wear the mask sometimes: this week I wore it into 3 different restaurants when I picked up my take-out in person. I didn't wear it at a particular grocery store because they don't hassle there. I also skipped it at a hardware store and caught a lot of drama for it.
Anyone who does the go-along shuffle with the vaccine is in for a karmic wallop, regardless of whether or not they suffer side effects in this lifetime. The masks are one thing -- they're nearly forced and at least in my state, you have to be deliberately obstinate if you choose not to wear one. The vaccine, on the other hand, is still optional and in the infantile stages of manufactured compliance. It is also extremely easy to find information on how harmful the vaccines are whereas the harm with masks is mostly psychological. Mark Passio has a great deal to say about how the truly evil elite push the karmic consequences of their own horrible deeds onto the sheeple who do their dirty work for them.
This is exactly why I've been saying I don't want the vaccine to anyone I think likely to not lose their mind about it. The results are very instructive....
Yeah, I'm very careful about who I share my opinions with. My immediate and extended family all know my feelings about the vaccine. I've told one work friend who is sympathetic and only because she asked me as she was getting pressure from our boss (she is our boss's assistant). Otherwise, I think people just assume I'm pro-vaccine and I typically refrain from discussing it either way. I want to be able to slip under the radar (and slip my kids under the radar) if there is more rigorous enforcement ahead.
Masks are a bit trickier. My "rebellion" is to not wear one when I am outside - even when I encounter other people (I just stand back a bit). Sadly, this actually is a rebellion around here. I see neighbors wearing a mask while they exercise or walk the dog - ALONE - all the time.
For good and bad, I have a pretty chameleon-like existence and acquaintances on nearly every point of the economic and status spectrum.
I have a cousin who's been gleefully exploiting gun laws to avoid masks. State doesn't require them here, but individual businesses still can-- and some chain stores have been quite obnoxious about it. But the law says if you're carrying a firearm, you can't cover your face (think bank robbers). He has a CCL, so now when pushy door greeters ask if he has a mask he replies "No, but I have a gun". They can't legally make him comply...
