“Employees who will presumably be concerned enough to turn in their own employers if their co-workers go unvaccinated or fail to undergo weekly tests to show they're virus-free...”

We are about to find out which side of history people would have been on.

“Resisting Tyranny Depends On The Courage To Not Conform”

“Social psychologist Roy Baumeister begins his book Evil: Inside Human Violence and Cruelty, with a proposition that will be counterintuitive to many: “Evil usually enters the world unrecognized by the people who open the door and let it in. Most people who perpetrate evil do not see what they are doing as evil.”

Dismissing evildoers as “insane” is an attempt to absolve both them and you of responsibility. Baumeister observes, “People do become extremely upset and abandon self-control, with violent results, but this is not insanity.” If only “insane” people commit “evil” acts, you might reason there is no need to strengthen spiritual and moral muscles. You might skip the reflection, study, and practice that builds spiritual and moral strength.

Would you, Baumeister asks, “obey orders to kill innocent civilians? Would you help torture someone? Would you stand by passively while the secret police hauled your neighbors off to concentration camps?” Baumeister writes, “Most people say no. But when such events actually happen, the reality is quite different.” Today, to the point, will you obey orders to fire upon people who refuse to comply with mandates?

In one of the most instructive books about Nazi Germany, Ordinary Men: Reserve Police Battalion 101 and the Final Solution in Poland, historian Christopher Browning explores why most people say yes and commit heinous acts even when given latitude to say no.

The men of Police Battalion 101 were not specially selected psychopathic killers. Initially, the Battalion was set up to enforce Nazi rule in occupied Poland. Eventually, their mission changed, bringing them to be the genocidal murderers of Jews they were charged with rounding up.

This would be a slide into the rabbit hole. At first it's about "vaccine" but mission creep into other issues is assured, then the next thing we know we have "Landwachters" or Committees for the Defense of the Revolution-thing going on.

Do as was done to mask snitch lines last year. Bury them in chaff.

I guess turning race against race, haves vs have nots, the
sexes against each other, straights against bent people, the
Woke against traditional and on an on it goes, wasn’t enough
for the Left.

Now they want the vaccinated and masked against the non
vaccinated and masked.

What more division can they come up with?

“So the government will rely upon a corps of informers to identify violations of the order: Employees who will presumably be concerned enough to turn in their own employers if their co-workers go unvaccinated”

Will the violators be sent to penal colonies in Alaska? Will the informers be rewarded with an extra ration of government cheese?

I am going to require all my male employees to provide a “I’m HIV free!” test every week.

My liberal, college educated daughter recently asked me if I would consider getting the vaccine because she was worried for my health after hearing of the covid death of her friends mother. I let her know that I was not considering it under any circumstances. I could envision her ratting me out in the future due to her own selfish desire for me to be vaccinated.
