@notmytruthTHEtruth Kyle doesn't view politics as a game or sport encompassed of teams and tribes like you do. He sees politicians & institutions as tools to pass legislation that help people. If Joe Biden or even Donald Trump (2 people he's criticized endlessly in the past) do something that benefits the public or workers, he gives them credit. Next you're going to be attacking him for supporting Joe Biden's withdrawal. It's ironic, because realistically you're the one acting like a hack on this issue. You want him to get angry at the Squad for forcing a vote on the spending bill and playing hardball? Is that really how you incentivize politicians to make good choices? Stop and think for once.

@brian2440 I don't know why you're arguing against the mandate, when neither Kyle nor myself support it - we're talking about allowing companies to ask to see if a person if vaccinated and if not, then they get tested for COVID in some capacity. Anytime you go into a doctor, you get your temperature taken, the airport does the same thing, so this is nothing new, the difference is it's at the employer level with a more accurate test. I don't know if you've ever had a COVID test before, but you literally just swab the inside of your nose, put it in a tube and get your results the next day. If a company is set up to do that in an organized way, then making a big deal out of it as "taking away your freedoms" is utterly ridiculous & hyperbolic. We're talking about a public health crisis that's been dragging on for years now with the virus evolving to a more contagious variant. It's clear this shit isn't just going away & the unfortunate fact of that matter is that if everyone got the vaccine, the virus would be far far more under control if not stopping hospitalizations entirely - the facts and stats about the latest surge is very clear on this & how the surge is nearly entirely only happening among the unvaccinated populous. Being for the vaccine or test option is the compromise position & tolerating people too stupid or stubborn to go out and get the vaccine. I really don't give a fuck if you have religious beliefs or just don't trust scientists, it's a public health crisis where people have been dying for years & forcing all of us to wear masks, change our entire way of life, making our seniors get locked up in nursing homes without visitation - most people are tired of this shit and the people primarily continuing it are the unvaccinated, so honestly, you should take what you can get & just get a fucking test from time to time, it's the very fucking least you can do to help end the pandemic.

It's not the mandate, it still gives you an option to opt out of the vaccine, so why are you acting like it's a "loophole" that still has the same effect when it doesn't at all? Simply because it mildly inconveniences workers at a private company that asks their employees to do so? Also, perhaps you should take it up with our Capitalist system, which is the sole reason why we have these feudal relationships between employer and employee in the first place. Nobody's asking these people to get the vaccine or test to go to the park - employers had been doing urine tests on their employees long long before COVID had been in the mix.
