So, you are a big fan of authoritarianism I see. This isn't about the health of children. This is about cramming an agenda down the throats of citizens by forcing parents choose between their children receiving an education that we are already paying for with our tax dollars or putting a vaccine that hasn't been fully approved by the FDA into their child, when the numbers show that Covid-19 is less than half as deadly to kids under 18 as the flu is.

If school systems want to pull some cruel shit like this and use kids' education as a bargaining chip then I say they should go for it. Private schools will be busting at the seams in no time due more-so to the principal of the matter than the vaccine itself. Public schools will devolve into a place where most teachers would probably teach elsewhere very quickly.

Democrats lack foresight when it comes to things like this. You like this authoritarianism because it is something you agree with. How much would you like it if your kids' education was being held hostage for something you didn't agree with or were even on the fence about?

Luckily, I can just about guarantee this will not happen here. Policies like this will take place in areas that are already in their transition to being hellholes. Those people who are mobile and can afford to get out will do so. Those who can't will be forced to live under these kinds of conditions.

Goddamnit. Every time I hear someone use the term "the jab" all I can picture is a room full of fucking dorks in a marketing department sitting around a conference room in a high-rise office building that Pfizer owns somewhere, trying to figure out how to message this to younger people in a way that sounds cool. Fail. You can bet your ass that some doofus in a marketing department gave a PowerPoint on why this should be called "the jab" before you guys took the bait.
