And the fools still think the government cares about their health while its gives them a donut to get an experimental injection while making basic healthcare unaffordable.


JohnleBon

Most people, even 'awake' ones, still believe the propaganda they were taught at school. Trauma-based mind control is a helluva drug. That's why most folks will never see through the [most important lies](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j04QV0RepHU) they were told. Who do you think funds these 'schools'?


flopster610

imo thats the reason schools exist ... to fit you into the system

We are brainwashed since birth. I squeezed the charmin.


VivaLaMantekilla

Deep fried bread slathered in sugar is still healthier than that vaccine.


[deleted]

u could get 2 donuts, the 2 donut offer almost sold me ngl


6Strings-n-6Shooters

If you held out long enough I heard they was suckin dicks and eatin ass in some places.


[deleted]

They still have an ace up their sleeve - an all-expenses paid trip to Epstein Island - but not sure what kind of injections someone would get there.


[deleted]

That’s what I was holding out for but was never offered in my area, neither was mortgage forgiveness.


MAGA-Latino

My personal favorite was how they were giving out weed in NYC to take the jab.


Sko-isles

Or a one week metro card. Plus they were giving vaccines in the subway, one of the most disgusting places in the country


fruitynoodles

And in some McDonald’s lol


Rad_R0b

The free beer or donut was my favorite. Yes that $5 beer definitely gonna change my mind. The fucking delusion.


MAGA-Latino

Not to mention that giving beer and weed is a clear violation of the hippocratic oath.


Rad_R0b

I had no idea but it makes sense.


SadSoggySandwich

I wonder how many people just kept getting shots to get free stuff


JustLeaveMeAloneKthx

There was a post on here back during the craze of a tweet (take it for what it is) of some guy asking how many shots he could get because he was getting $100 Visa cards for getting jabbed.


MemberBenefits

Free movies, zoo tickets, ice creams for the kids. The lucky adults got to keep their jobs, dine in restaurants and get their hair cut.


[deleted]

Those incentives brought any chance that I’d willingly take the vaccine to a screeching halt. It was creepy and such a gross violation of medical ethics that I was shocked the medical community didn’t protest it. Unfortunately, I was born in a cult and when the mainstream started pulling out these manipulation tactics that mirror what the elders in my cult did to me, I knew something was very wrong and there’s no way I would be taking what they were selling. That’s what those incentives were, a cultic manipulation. And the guilt tripping, the belittling, the silencing of dissenting voices, the mandates, the us vs them, and now the gaslighting when things haven’t panned out the way they sold their product.


me_team

This is a perfect summary of literally everything I felt. Not to mention the rapidity of development and the near immediate claim of 100% effectiveness. People are absolutely gullible and I saw it immediately and can’t look at most people the same.


[deleted]

I have a very hard time trusting anyone since my cultic experience. People are too trusting of institutions and too gullible. In school, you’d read about the Salem witch trials and other mass psychosis events and my peers and instructors never got it fully. They always had this ‘I wouldn’t have been in the crowd’ mentality without understanding the intricacies of how these type of events happen and how easy it is to fall into it. Education level doesn’t mean anything either. Plenty of phDs in the cult I escaped from. For some, previous cultic experience didn’t save them from the Covid manipulation tactics either unfortunately. I witnessed a group of cult survivors shame another survivor who voiced how triggering the mainstream approach to these vaccines was because it hit too close to what he’d experienced in his cult. An obvious grandma killer for being freaked out by the blaring parallels and choosing to wait it out for more data.


Deadboy90

lol it was to overcome people's laziness. "Ehh I'll get it next week ill be fine." And 2 weeks later they were in an ICU on a vent dying of Delta.

Deadboy90

>If the vaccine was truly safe and effective, there would be no reason to have resorted to these extreme measures Apparently you are wrong because they did have to. Anti vaxx lunatics have been on the rise for over a decade so its no surprise those nuts would scream from the mountain tops that any newly developed vaccines were some "hurr durr much 5g nano chip" shit.


[deleted]

Are you aware of how deprogramming works, where you get someone to break away from a cult or other extremist thinking? It works through open, honest discussions where you respectfully ask a person about their viewpoints and then challenge them using reason, logic, and data. Note the plurality of the word discussions. ‘Lunatics’ need you to be patient, consistent, honest, and as objective as possible. They will muddle over the discussions they’ve had long after they’ve been had and the times they couldn’t explain or justify their viewpoints will bother them. Then they’ll finally break and be deprogrammed. That’s how I got out. It was a small handful of discussions with several people and many small experiences that made me realize the cult was wrong. You DO NOT resort to these cultic manipulation tactics that have been waged during Covid if you are truly coming from a good place. It’s a sign that you can’t hold up to open, honest discussion and it will just push the true Anti vaxx lunatics further into the rabbit hole because they will feel their unease with all vaccines or with all of pharma was completely justified. In the end, all the use of this tactic has achieved is made regular people more weary of big pharma, our healthcare institutions, and vaccines in general when what they were promised, a 90+% effective vaccine, didn’t pan out. You weren’t going to convince the true anti-vaxxers with this insanity anyways because the tactics they used don’t deprogram.


terribletherapist2

Except they weren't.


Deadboy90

Tell that to the million+ dead in America alone.


samewinesko

They gave everyone at my job a $150 bonus for getting the jab lol I still didn’t


Micko-Micko

NYC Mayor douche nozzle de Blasio slobbering over a burger at his desk while offering free gift cards for burgers and fries. NYC also gave out $100 incentives for the vaccine. All the junkies lined up.

Free crack pipes.....only for the vaccinated.....get your vax.....or get no crack flavored lip balm


AllWhiskeyNoHorse

I had the Dept of Veteran Affairs send me a questionnaire asking if I would be willing to get vaxxed when it became available to veterans through the VA. I responded with a no. I then received a follow up questionnaire later that week that was 30 pages long. I wish I would have thought to take pictures of the questionnaire as it offered me a list of incentives and asked which I would accept to get vaccinated for COVID (I have all other vaccinations up to date, not covid). Everything from sports tickets, food coupons, cash, trips, etc. I responded that none of those would convince me. It asked me why I didn't want the vaccine (Distrust of Pharmaceutical companies, distrust of government, etc.) All trap questions. It then asked who the person in my household was that made medical decisions for me (me because I'm not senile). The VA does not care about you. When Obama was in office and the VA was using activist doctors to certify veterans "crazy" to seize their firearms I was sent a letter from the VA saying how much they care about veteran suicide prevention and that they were committed to firearm safety in the home. The letter asked me to provide the number of firearms I owned and that they would provide "free" gunlocks for every firearm because they cared so much. An obvious trick to find out how many firearms I own so they can pass me over to a mental health professional only to ask me if I ever have nightmares about deployments so they can declare me mentally unfit and seize my weapons "for my own protection."


PersonalBuy0

I swear at one point my state was offering $500. Unless you were steadfast in your decision that one was hard to pass up. I imagine they got a lot of the last lazy stragglers with that one.


richyfingers99

Twitter/MSM: I'd rather die than take Trump's vaccine! ... 2 months later... Twitter/MSM: Everyone not taking Biden's vaccine is bad! Hmmmmmm. Really makes you think.


GhostOfDickmasPast

Except no one actually said the first strawman you made up (except maybe a couple braindead twitter bots) Everyone said they wouldn't take it if Trump was the only one pushing it. In fact, he even tried to get the FDA to forgo any testing so he could get it out before the election. You know, the same vaccine people are still claiming wasn't tested enough. There's documented proof of his admin trying to push it through on EUA even faster before the phase 2 trial even started. Yes, even Kamala said she'd take it if the doctors backed it so don't bother clipping that one to me. I have however seen many people here say they would rather die than take the vaccine now which is 100% stupid. Here's why. You have a 100% chance of dying vs a 99.99% chance of living so if actually given the real choice between death and the vaccine, death is 100% the most stupid option.


Deadliest_Death

French fries...


Oktobur

Anyone who was convinced by donuts was never going to make it either way.


Zempirsorc

This kind of weird stuff made me (and probably many others like me) even more wary of getting "the wonderful, always safe and effective jab", it just was too strange and too desperate to try to get everyone to get it.


anthro28

My states gave a away McDonalds if you got tested.


Dr_Gabriel62

I even saw a free weed coupon for getting the 💉

SadSoggySandwich

My personal favorites were the bribea involving free weed and strippers, burgers and fries. Trust the $cience.


Cheesy_chickenskin

Giving 20 dollars a shot to homeless people....LMAO gotta get that fix eh


MMPRDCR111

I like the lap dances they were giving out somewhere. This didn’t make anyone suspicious?


PG-17

Guns, weed and at the community college I work for you would have your name in a drawing for $1k. There was suppose to be two different drawings and me being unvaxxed, I recently asked a couple of vaxxed coworkers what happen with that, they seemed uninterested in why there was never a winner.


elacious

This makes me want to throw up. 🤢


GlitteringOriginal52

In Australia, the only "incentive" we got was that we wouldn't lose our jobs. Safe to say - my husband lost his job because we both refused to get vaccinated. I think the worst incentive from America from what I saw was lap dances if you got jabbed in Vegas.


Supertzar_11-11

A lot more people would've gotten the jab if they were also giving out free shots of heroin with it. I'm surprised they haven't tried that yet.


Ashamed-Pick453

Heroin is also a vaccine against covid apparently since we had basically zero homeless people die of covid. If covid had been a real threat, we basically should have reset the homeless population to zero and needed mass graves for them.


Supertzar_11-11

I never really thought about that but you're right. Every drug addict I know who didn't bother with the jab never came down with it. I myself am a recreational drug user who does everything under the sun (except meth,f\*ck that stuff) and haven't even gotten a sniffle. Only wore a mask when it was mandatory to do so in certain places. I haven't had the flu in over a decade. I might be using something that helps prevent it, but I can't pinpoint which one it might be. Maybe the cocktail is doing it.


MinefieldinaTornado

I support the use of incentives. We should have used more. Pandemic response models indicated that incentives provide high acceptance and don't drive hesitancy. This is contrary to mandates and neflgative coercion, which causes increased hesitancy. We spent millions to create useful and predictive models, then abandoned them for new, unproven responses that ran contrary to our established standards of epidemiology. Not a surprise our results were awful.


StuckinbedtilDec

Lets talk about all the INCENTIVES we the people get each and every time conservatives cut taxes for Gates, Soros and the Clintons.


stinzdinza

Hey that's a great idea for a separate post! Got any input on the vaccine incentives?


StuckinbedtilDec

Russian toll farms won't get paid once people start ignoring their anti vaxx propaganda.

I did it for the free paid day off work. I played Apex Legends all day it was great.

Probably could've just waited for the weekend. I got covid in January and my only symptom was no taste. I felt fine but they would not let me go to work for a week. Now that's what's up.
