That said, the only reason why the blue states aren't under full lockdowns and business restrictions again right now is because there was enough rebellion the first time around, especially after it continued on, and on, and on, with no answer as to when the end would be. Not a single blue governor wanted to go down that road again. They even wouldn't touch masking again, leaving it to individual localities and businesses and therefore avoiding anymore heat on themselves. Hell, even in the Socialist Republic of California there is about to be a recall election for the governor who right after telling people they should put their masks on between bites of food, was caught celebrating a lobbyist's birthday, inside, with not a single mask in sight. Even if he doesn't get recalled, the threat of it happening made sure he wasn't going to try doing anymore bullsh1t. In contrast look at Australia, which has once again, become the world's largest prison. Australia didn't have the amount of rebellion you saw in the USA when it became obvious that your chances of dying from covid are actually quite slim, and you see the results. That government has no plans of lifting the lockdowns, ever. Even if the states have the power to mandate the vaccine, they can only arrest so many people, and shut down so many businesses for not complying. These mandates only work when you have basically 100% compliance. All Sleepy Joe did on Thursday was convince more people to not get the vaccine and create more division. He didn't even have the balls to answer questions from the same media that helped install his regime into power and his clown of a press secretary gave smug grin before walking off basically saying F|_|ck You, America. As I said, it remains to be seen if 100,000,000 million Americans that have resisted so far continue to resist and fight for making their own choice about a personal medical decision, or give in to a few hundred corporate and government fascists looking to make a quick buck. That's what it really comes down to. The numbers will always be on the side of the people who just had war declared on them by the Biden regime.
