Good point, except you have to exclude those of us who woke up the nanosecond we saw others being vilified and bullied into taking the shot. That's really what my wakeup call was - I was never a huge pro vax person, but more of a live and let live person, each person has to do what's right for them health-wise. And there were people who legitimately couldn't get the shot because they'd already had a life threatening reaction to a vax in the past, and yet even they were still being bullied and excluded from society. That no exceptions policy made zero sense to me and showed me this wasn't about healthcare at all. And the continued forcing once it was super obvious that the vaxxed kept not only getting sick from covid (meaning it never prevented spread), they were ending up in the hospital and dying too - and yet those monsters kept pushing the shot. It should be super obvious to anyone paying attention that this isn't about protecting people's health.

I am glad you and others were supportive. My experience was 3 people only. The rest - nothing.

yup, very hard for some people to admit they were wrong. It's sad that this is largely a virtue we've lost as a society.

Lack of humility. Or in other words excessive pride 😑😕

Jen, RunningLogic--In deep deep blue Oregon, Democrats never apologize or admit they were wrong, on anything. Their arrogant genes are over expressed, and the genes accounting for humility totally missing. They are doubling down on everything wrong.

The “Left Bank” of the USA is overrun with the “Blue Meanies!” Although I came from Western Washington I could never live there again. In addition to trying to impose their absurd ideas upon everyone else these progressives seem to lack both common sense and common courtesy.

Didn't a LOT of Oregonians migrate up from California? I know a few who did. They were lefties, too. They brought their sick politics with them.

Yes, there are Californians here. I was a lefty when I moved to Oregon in 1980. Saw a vaccine reaction and funny how the world looks different afterwards. This was around 1992. If the government-medical community is not going to be honest and forthright about an invasive medical procedure performed on healthy children that can cause injury and death, then what else are they not honest about?

Plenty!
