When I say that I'm a political progressive, I mean that I've become progressively disillusioned with politics.
Like you, Steve, I declined the Covid vaccination. There was so much misinformation, malinformation, propaganda swirling about the pandemic that I went to a doctor I trusted for his opinion. The doctor, my brother, a naturopathic doctor in private practice, actually read through the clinical trials and other pharmacy documentation. He said, "It doesn't stop you from getting it, it doesn't stop you from giving it to someone else, it's not a true vaccine, I'm not taking it."
So, I didn't take it. Lo and behold, even in liberal, tolerant, organic-granola Sonoma County, I was outcast, ostracized, refused entry and service for my choice.
You can't blame people initially for believing what they are told by "trusted" authorities, particularly in the midst of a crisis like COVID. However, now that evidence has emerged that contradicts that initial narrative, we owe it to ourselves and our community to point people to the larger truth beyond the narrative. I highly recommend the latest documentary, VAXXED III (https://vaxxed3.childrenshealthdefense.org/vaxxed-3-movie/). As I warn people, you won't want to watch this. But you need to.

Much appreciated. I will decide how to vote on November 5 and give them time to earn my vote. I live in DC so have some freedom to not matter.
