All I can see here is that you are somehow jumping to the conclusions of the leftists, which that open businesses convey Covid, which was and still is a lie spread by the leftists themselves. No. That doesn't matter to my point, which is who has what authority, what rights, who decides. Had you read the link that I posted and the discussion surrounding it with your eyes open, you would have seen yourself arguing that employees have a right to employment that supersedes the right of employer to dictate vaccination. And the right of the traveler to fly unmasked or un-vaccinated supersedes the right of the airline to set restrictions. That right or authority is independent of the criteria that they are setting and whether you agree or disagree with them or whether they are valid or invalid. In both cases you were denying the business owner's prerogatives. If you want to put an asterisk on them for your pet conditions, fine, but you can't deny that you were not on the side of the business's right to make such determinations. I understand your concern about the government dictating vaccinations or masks but that's a separate matter that failure to differentiate muddles the subject on the table. I also understand your notion that the leftists are wrong about the science, which does not matter to the question of the prerogatives of the business. Regardless, some businesses were, indeed, exercising their prerogatives independent of what the government and the leftists were pushing and you were denying those businesses in favor of employees and customers. I realize that there's cognitive dissonance in this for you but you can't at the same time be both for the right of self determination of a business to determine criteria and the right of the employee or customer to supersede it. Yeah, yeah, go ahead and wiggle and divert but I've got this one cold.
