I don't know any dedicated democrat that is in favor of ZERO restrictions on abortion. It will be interesting to see if they finally speak up and end the bullshit of abortion up to the point of birth, and unfortunately in some states beyond that point.

I'm in favor of zero restrictions on abortion. It's a decision to be made between a mother and her doctor. There's no reason for the government to be involved at all in healthcare decisions.

Good Point. You mean like forcing people to take the vax to keep their job? Right?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Nice false equivalency. That's not being forced. That's being given a choice you simply don't like. Those are not the same thing and the fact that you guys keep pretending like it is makes you look like the fools you actually are.

My definition of foolishness is having diametrically opposed view on when.... "my body.. my choice"

That was your employer that required it. The government didn’t force any private employer to require vaccines. Nor did Roe force women to get abortions

Got it. So you spoke out against employers requiring it. And you are wrong about the federal government. Many federal jobs including the military required it.

I’m not denying that the government required it for government employment. But you could always get a non government job if you didn’t want to get vaxxed.

With the exception of military, but we trample on the rights of our soldiers all the time. But it’s something of a requirement to have an effective military, to make sure our soldiers are inoculated so they can be ready for action.

Good point. The next time the government requires you to do something that you disagree with to keep your job remember.... no big deal just get another job

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The government has the right to manage its workforce the same way any private entity does. What the government can’t do is say all Americans must get vaccinated or say the inverse that nobody can get vaccinated.

No one, including the government or private business, has to kowtow to your personal beliefs about the vaccine.

Good point. You can lose your job and career because of your personal beliefs. Makes sense

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Not that refusing a vaccine is the same as being abhorrently racist but people lose their job and career for their personal beliefs all the time.

Being anti-vax isn't a protected class unless it was a sincerely held religious belief. And every mandate had exemptions based on religious belief.

People weren't anti vax. They personally didn't want to take it
