Wouldn't having to expose your medical records to businesses violate HIPAA anyway?

Absolutely! If someone at the Cab Company send a confirmation to an insurer via email that Patrick K was dropped off at an address that has a Dialysis Center, that cab company can get in trouble for allowing HIPPA info over a insecure means. That is how low the HIPPA bar is.

In an interview, National Health Authority chief R.S. Sharma says UIDAI's facial recognition algorithms will soon be rolled out at vaccination centres.

India is committing a crime against humanity with this draconian measure.

Patrick says

It's beyond that though. I don't want people with AIDS in my restaurant. Whether one is more transmissible is irrelevant. AIDS is substantially more life altering and lethal. I don't want those people near me.

I'm being hyperbolic and I'm not afraid of AIDS as I know how it's transmitted. But it's 100% valid. Go ahead and do a vaccine passport. I will start a non-profit tomorrow to collect money to ban people with AIDS from doing anything.

This has already been going on in the US for a while. You're just not being told about it. Casinos have been doing it for over a decade. To think the government hasn't dabbled in it would be crazy. The states (drivers license) and fed (passport) likely have a clear image of your face to throw into a d-base and track where you've been. You need ID's, but I don't think the average citizen understands how the data is stored and can be manipulated to be able to track people. It's 100% happening, just not sure to what level.

Ironically, masks are pretty good for defeating facial recognition!

As soon as we are told not to wear masks, then I will start wearing one.

It won't get you anywhere except maybe inside of patriotic businesses. And the homes of cool Americans who like bacon and bourbon and puppies and guns.

This is not meant to actually try and misrepresent yourself as having been vaccinated for COVID-19. Let's not be confused with those people. They are the people who wear masks alone in their Prius and wear condoms alone in bed at night.

This is a passport for those of us who "identify" as being vaccinated. For those of us who are sick and tired of being told what to do with our bodies. And for the growing number of Americans who are just... done.

Yep, I believe the prohibition on any kind of face covering while driving is in the fucking CVC. And back when I used to visit physical bank locations there were signs posted prohibiting entry with face covered too. But now they can't ask you to remove that balaclava, can they? =))

Lol, yes, I'm sure that's true. The police should be giving out tickets for that.

I was thinking about the mask mandates, and coerced vaccine/experimental shot(JJ is a vaccine, Pfizer is DNA hacking), and where this leads is not good. I'm not talking about the health impact, but the infringement of sovereign freedom over one's body. If someone else can mandate what you put on, and in, your own body, you have ceased to be an autonomous entity, and are now someone else's chattel. How long before every thought and action are dictated for you?

You are correct and this is all being done. Hence why I don't listen. Only thing that gets me is travel and my most recent trip I didn't wear a mask on the flight or airport. I'm not some warrior or pioneer, but we need more people to do this. Employees are done confronting people from my experience if you're willing to test them and potential confrontation.

I'm usually wearing a hat on travel days. Just tip your cap and keep walking regardless of what they ask regarding your mask. Neck gaiter. Don't get yourself in actual trouble which is why I recommend a neck gaiter, but they'll just ignore you generally. Pretend you're deaf so to speak. I was astonished on my last trip how flight attendants and airport staff gave zero shits. Everyone is done with this.

Airports theoretically are a highly transmissible area for virus. If you haven't gotten it in over a year now, the bill of goods being sold by the media is BS. That's the reality.

I never wear a mask anywhere until asked, and I refuse to cover my nose(CO2 poisoning). Even with the new Biden mandates, no one cares. TSA asked me if I had a mask, and said to put it on before I got to the conveyor belt for my luggage. No fine, no threats, no shits given.

Don't even think they can fine you. It's more the legal right to deny service/entry and not get in trouble for the denial. Which is likely unconstitutional though it's a grey area. No shirt no service type thing. Something over a part of your body that supports you staying alive is a different animal in my opinion.

Hopefully there's some case ongoing out there with someone that has deep pockets fighting this. I throw the neck gaiter on every morning like a shirt. Very rarely do I need it, but if I need something and they're going to be confrontational about it, I'll just pull it up with a big🖕to the person asking. BS for sure, but I still have to live my life in these fucked up times.

Knowing you're a privacy guy, it might not be a bad thing for you? Right? Or are you like me that wearing anything on my face causes anxiety or is it a defiance thing (which I agree with). The ear straps are the worst too. Fuck that. I found the thinnest gaiter and haven't had an issue for the most part. In a month though I maybe use it 2-3 times after getting heat from someone. So it's not often. I just stay away from cities.

While I don't think you'll get any co2 poisoning from short stints of wearing a mask the longer and more often you wear it there will eventually be negative effects on your health. Just for shits though I wanted to look at arguments of the most mask adverse and put masks cause co2 poisoning into gulag. And it comes back displaying a total of 10 distinct websites before repeating itself, all from the fall of 2020 and all screaming "deboonked!! No face masks don't cause co2 poisoning!" How is this still called a search engine? It's political propaganda lol. I mean show me at least both sides I'm sure there are plenty of articles on either side. How is this any different from communist Soviet union or china?! Just short of re-education camps.

masks cause co2 poisoning

First Duck duck result from the last month:

I never ask anyone to wear a mask. Why? I have no right to obstruct anyone’s breathing. I have no right to cause widely demonstrated and clinically confirmed hypoxic injuries to the brain, heart and musculoskeletal system known in the peer-reviewed research to be caused by masking. Yes, I am sorry that you have been told over the last year that masks don’t reduce oxygen, by emphatic and dogmatic people, but the fact remains that oxygen deficit during mask-wearing is very thoroughly established in peer-reviewed clinical data. Here[1], here[2] and here[3], for example.

And yes, surgeons also suffer from deoxygenation.[4] Excess of carbon dioxide, as it accumulates inside a mask, also is a mild poisoning of the entire body, and this is also established in clinical data. [5] [6] So if you demand that a child, a worker, a traveler, a consumer or anyone else wear a mask, you have been demanding that they mildly poison themselves.

How could anyone believe that masks don't restrict breathing?

This is really the crux of it all. I or anyone has no right to tell someone how to fucking breath. Everyone will get this if they have 20-30 years to live. There's no disputing this. Hospitals have never been remotely near being overrun during the peak case period. Early on the same clip was used for ICU's on all my local affiliates (don't have cable).

Now it's the same poke shots over and over and over again. There's no doubt this is organized brainwashing. Watch local news. There are clips of 10 people getting the poke every half hour and it's the SAME clips on every station. You can be a simpleton and figure this shit out. Sure maybe they're buying stock footage of people being injected. But why? Did they not go to a vaccination site and get their own footage? No and journalism doesn't exist anymore. It's stock footage everyone is using and they don't think people are smart enough to figure that out. Most aren't.

It all started with telling business owners they must ONLY cater to non-smokers.

It all started with telling business owners they must ONLY cater to non-smokers.

Even though I like non-smoking establishments, the decision of smoke free or not should be up to the owner. But it "started" even before the smoking ban:
A Chinese Restaurant is banned from hiring only ethnic Chinese servers and cooks
A barber shop is not allowed to have a policy of "Blacks Only."
Optimus Club (community service, like Kiwanis) was forced to accept female members
Dawidowitzski's bar is not allowed to be Polish Only

Such socialized attacks on private property rights and freedom of association should have been stopped in the bud. I would not be surprised to see people get slandered as "bigots" for not wanting to date or marry outside their own race.

Just to be sure I am not misunderstood here. A privately owned Barber Shop should have the right to be "Blacks Only" if that is what the private business owner wants. And no private baker should be required to bake a cake for someone the baker does not want as a customer, regardless of the reason.

To obtain the permit one must be able to access and use the internet, as people apply via a website. However, Grandon, who lives alone, doesn’t know how to use the internet.

This is why some have to leave the site as these are very difficult questions to answer and there may never be a satisfying answer addressing all concerns, and if you don't have the open mind to at least consider different scenarios following all arguments the cognitive dissonance will blow your mind and you must quit perusing the site, leaving with the self calming (deceiving) notion that you're the good guy. Happens mostly to leftoids these days but back in the days the same thing happened to the "religious" right. Instead one should keep thinking and never stop reasoning about any argument you can't put fully to rest.

Patrick says

At the very least undermixed ingredients. Some people really care about the food they create for others. It's the reason I frequent local eateries and avoid chains.

Cooking is alchemy. The result is more than the sum of the ingredients. Love and care is part of the creation.

But hey, if they want a fundamentalist Christian baker to make them a Butt Cake with chocolate custard filling for a homosexual marriage they're not very smart.

Back in the days when there was a government monopoly on racism there was an urgency to get rid of this harmful (hateful) notion as it was disenfranchising blacks bigly. Nowadays you have government sactioned racism against whites, men and straights which is equally problematic, just not as widespread (yet). When you consider this you will come to the conclusion that it may be fine and the ultimate expression of freedom (no morals implied) to being able to refuse the right of a private service to anyone, be it that you don't like their face, gender, sex, religion or skin color, as long as it's within a small enough space/cooperative so that those left out have plenty of other options. States and government should keep out of racism or gender/sex favoritism in any form but possibly allow small communities craft their own rights for private businesses to refuse service (of course the exceptions would be things such as emergency medical care etc, disaster/accident care etc.). I would def not want to force to change the mind of a store owner serving blacks only by legal force, I'd just go somewhere where I'd be welcome. Of course there are plenty of arguments for government mandated equal treatment for businesses of everyone, but then every night club has to do away with women's half price night, any affirmative action has to be abolished immediately and all subsidies based on sex/gender in healthcare (birth control etc), and access for everyone who can perform in the military. Men and women should have the right not to pay for their kid or not if they can't agree. And the list goes on. There are deep consequences for every bold equalizing move no matter what the intentions. Churches would have to take everybody etc. etc. One solution I can see is to distinguish between private clubs (where anything goes) and public businesses and maintain a decent balance between those.

It all started by prohibiting businesses from serving smokers AT ALL, and kowtowing to the non-smoker crowd.

The Interstate Commerce clause, the most abused piece of the Constitution. I think of the case from the Great Depression where a guy who grew more corn than "allowed" was found guilty of violating it, even though the corn didn't enter any commerce, he used it on his own farm, for his own animals. And the cowardly SCOTUS, fearful of Court Packing in one of the Greatest Cuckservative Wimpouts, ruled that simply by not buying corn for his own animals from the market, he had effected interstate commerce.

Yeah, native Montanians(?) won't buy into vaccine passports. I do know the Bozeman area is being overrun by CA transplants though. I honestly think MT is on the verge of turning blue. Natives hate it.

I can buy a slightly use 4 Runner or Subaru, drive it out there and turn a nice profit including the flight back. It's bubbly out there. Same with campers. Indiana is the mecca for camper building, so I can get them cheap as transportation of campers to places like MT is like $2-3k with labor and fuel. I could do it for $400 and stay at one of my buddies houses. Basically I'm just saying the demand in a place like Bozeman for stuff not made there is massive right now. Money to be made.

Students Rally Against Mandatory COVID-19 Vaccines at NJ University: ‘They’re Going to Keep Moving the Goalposts’
BY ELLA KIETLINSKA May 24, 2021

Hundreds of Rutgers University students and their parents held a rally on the university’s New Brunswick, New Jersey, campus on May 21 to speak out against the school’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for students.

https://www.dailycal.org/2021/05/24/ca-health-officials-announce-vaccine-negative-test-requirements-at-indoor-mega-events/

For “mega” outdoor events with more than 10,000 individuals, California Health and Human Services Secretary Mark Ghaly said the state will recommend that venue operators verify vaccinations and negative tests. For those who are unvaccinated or cannot provide a negative test, they will only be allowed entrance if wearing a mask, Ghaly added.

“We will be laying out pretty clear recommendations and guidelines on how that vaccine verification and negative testing can occur,” Ghaly said during a press conference. “There is an option to have it be by self-attestation, and we will go into the details of what that self-attestation methodology can look like for the vendors through our CDPH postings on this issue.”

In indoor venues, Ghaly said, the threshold is reduced to 5,000 individuals and verification will be required, not recommended, at these “mega” events. There will not be an option to enter the venue for those without a vaccination or negative test, even if they wear a mask.

That should stop the Trump rallies.

They have not given up on the passport.

https://reclaimthenet.org/israels-failed-vaccine-passport/

Israel has proven to the world that vaccine passports do not work, according to five Israeli professors in the fields of medicine and ethics. The professors claim the vaccine passports are an affront to civil liberties and cause segregation and discrimination, which in turn make even pro-vaccination people resent it.

In an opinion piece published in The Telegraph, five professors opined that the world should learn from Israel that vaccine passports do not work.

“As professors in Israel’s medical sphere, we’ve found passes to be irreconcilable with basic principles of the medical profession,” they wrote. ...

Businesses such as bars and restaurants, and entertainment venues such as theaters were ordered not to allow people who did not have the Green Pass. In some public spaces, like the Tel-Aviv beach, there were areas designated for the “vaccinated only,” and others for the unvaccinated. The result was a country divided into two; an “upper class” of vaccinated people, and a “lower class” of unvaccinated people.

“The Green Pass was promoted with a clear message: getting the shot is the right choice. Those who refuse it are immoral, therefore, and excluding them is legitimate. The campaign to promote vaccination was often scientifically inaccurate and ethically questionable, exaggerating the danger posed by the virus to the lowest risk groups such as young, healthy students,” the professors wrote.

They added that the pass created an atmosphere of intolerance. Companies fired staff who refused to get vaccinated, universities refused to allow unvaccinated students to attend in-person lectures, unvaccinated teachers were publicly blasted, and even a renowned researcher was not allowed to attend a conference he helped arrange. So, individuals who cannot be vaccinated for clinical reasons have no way to go back to “normal” life.

Interestingly, the Green Pass is also driving people, especially the youth, to refuse the vaccines.

“The coercive measures had a paradoxical effect. Traditionally, the Israeli public has a remarkably high adherence to routine vaccinations. However, the heated debate related to the Green Pass, along with public shaming, has led to resentment and anger.

The professors also pointed out the privacy violations that come with digital vaccine certification. Each time someone with the Green Pass enters a venue, it is scanned and the information recorded in a national database. A form of proof identity is also required to verify that the Green Pass belongs to the individual holding it. The process violates “both location-privacy and medical confidentiality.”

They continued to argue that vaccine passports are not supported by science, since the risk of a vaccinated person getting infected by an unvaccinated person is low, with the most likely outcome being a “very mild self-limiting disease.” ...

The professors, therefore, warned against vaccine passports because Israel has shown that:

“Coercion has replaced autonomy, punishment has replaced compassion, checkpoints have replaced confidentiality, segregation has replaced inclusion.”

Many in the country are realizing the negative consequences of the Green Pass, and there are already a few appeals in the Supreme Court to declare the passes disproportionate.
