Why Mandates Don't Work · 2:47pm Nov 9th, 2021

This is very basic but apparently, the US administration hasn't gone to elementary school, or probably any school at all, because they don't understand the basics. The authoritarian Left and authoritarians in general are really comfortable with making things mandatory but they forget some very simple things about making things mandatory, chiefly among them that it's counterproductive to the stated goal of the mandate.

This is very simple, so I'm going to make it very clear, and this is a message to EVERYONE:

If you make something mandatory, it GUARANTEES people will rebel.

So, vaccine mandates. Yes, we DO need to get as many people vaccinated as possible. We're not going to get everyone. There's hundreds of millions of people in the United States, let alone the billions of people in the world. We are not going to get everyone. I'll say that again, because it's a fact we really need to accept: we will not be able to vaccinate every living person in the world. It's not going to happen, Leftists and Fauci-lovers. And I believe in the Fauc. I've been wearing two masks, I still wear one going out, I got my booster shot recently. And you know what? ALL OF THESE THINGS WERE OF MY OWN VOLITION.

Yes, people are going to make the dumb decision and not get vaccinated. Yes, people not being vaccinated DOES increase the risk of spreading it to vulnerable people and yes, it DOES increase the possibility that the virus will mutate and bypass immunity and antibodies from the vaccine. The smart people knew this from the very beginning and they also knew, if they had half a brain to start with, that it is impossible to vaccinate and give boosters to every living person. You'd be lucky to get it in a tiny state or island like Vermont, let alone a state with millions of people, some of which who enjoy living off the grid.

I am not being biased. This is a fact: we are not going to be able to vaccinate everyone. Yet, we STILL need to vaccinate as many people as we can to eradicate this plague and get things back on track and improving. That, too is a fact.

Making something mandatory, ESPECIALLY in a place like the United States of America, GUARANTEES you will have a rebellion on your hands. People will disobey your mandate for the sake of it. For innumerable amount of reasons, they will fight you, they will spite you and if given the opportunity, they will do everything to undermine, subvert, sabotage and destroy you. Why? Because you took away their choice and choice is freedom, choice is liberty, choice is voice and millions of people, millions of Americans have lived and died throughout generations fighting in the streets, on foreign soil and everywhere and in innumerable amounts of ways for the very principle of freedom not even for themselves, but for their sons, daughters and fellow countrymen. It is in our very blood, coursing through our very souls, it is America itself and to not understand that is to invite damnation upon yourself and tantamount to self-genocide.

You can call it childish, you can call it stupid, you can call it whatever you want, but YOU are the one trying to do the right thing by vaccinating people so HOW you do it is just as important as the good intentions you have, if not more. To reiterate, I am a firm believer in vaccines. I have been happily getting vaccines and boosters my entire life and I enjoy the immunity it provides me. I am NOT a believer in mandates because it is quite literally a self-destructive practice.

I do not know how many people have been incited because of vaccine mandates, but the Left has turned what would've been a few hundred or even a few thousand people in the boonies and the sticks into potentially millions because they do not understand fundamental concepts of human psychology. People don't like being told what to do, they like choices, they like options, and you're still not going to get everyone. You're not going to get MORE by making mandates, you are going to get a whole lot less.

So, what should you do? Incentivize the fuck out of mandates. Promote awareness, make it easy and available and affordable, all the shit you're already doing. Stop short of making it a full-on requirement. Let businesses that force employees to get vaccinated fail and blunder on their own. Again, not much you can do to stop them unless you're planning on forcing everyone in the world at gunpoint to get jabbed and even then, you wouldn't get everyone. People would kill themselves to avoid getting jabbed, hide for decades, fight back with guns and IEDs to spite you.

Hell, try reverse psychology. Vaccinate a few people at state level and make vaccines in some areas harder to get. It'll guarantee people will scramble to get vaccinated. Stop wasting time, effort, energy and resources trying to be Big Brother. You might as well be throwing the vaccines away by making them mandatory, oh but wait, that's happening, too. The Left hates people, it hates themselves, and the Democrats trying to cater to the Leftists is still failing because they don't understand that the Left doesn't want to help anyone and really just wants humanity to die so nature can reclaim the Earth. Me, I'm just tired of watching my party shoot themselves in the foot like they're wearing bullseye shoes, but if I can't do a damn thing about it, at least I can pass on advice that MIGHT be helpful if a single one of these idiots actually opens their eyes to use it.

I've been deprogramming myself from seeing issues in terms of "Wings". These are terms that are ultimately worse than useless.

They are, but you know who I'm talking about, at least.

5605238

Even that may not be true. The crossing over of the wings muddies the issue.

Well it's clear who I mean here.

5605366

Indeed. Though... it's not just "Democrats", is it?
