Oh.....the........irony...

An article was written in May of 2017 entitled “The Prison of Two Ideas”. I am not going to link it here as it covers political beliefs (easy Google search if you want to read it) but basically it says that you are either for or against a position. Many have come to believe that for every issue, there are only two possible positions, for which this thread has perfect examples, i.e. if you are anti mandate, then you are anti vaccine. In my opinion, based upon the content of threads I have read, this “prison” usually is built when emotion is involved and not facts supported by data. For example, is there proof that people who are anti-mandate are all anti vaccine? There is not, but there is proof that people support the vaccine and have had the vaccine, but are anti-mandate.

“My way or the highway” doesn’t leave much room for discourse, unless that is the objective.
