Good day all. Now that there are some vaccines for the China Virus, the discussion on getting it has begun. Many people are a bit hesitant, myself included, do to a lack of information on the testing and long term effects of the vaccines.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

One of the things being discussed is making the inoculations mandatory, and that people would have to provide proof that they had taken the vaccine. Some of the ideas for proving this include having to carry a card saying you have been inoculated, up to and including having an RFID chip injected into your body. Now we have Andrew Yang announcing his dumb totalitarian idea. Here are the details from The Blaze<\/b><\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n

Former Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang is calling for a system people can use to provide proof that they have been vaccinated for COVID-19, suggesting something “like a bar code they can download to their phone” would make it easier to safely congregate. <\/b><\/p>\n

Yang, whose campaign for the White House was based on a platform calling for universal basic income, tweeted<\/a> Friday, “Is there a way for someone to easily show that they have been vaccinated – like a bar code they can download to their phone? There ought to be.” <\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

He argued, “Tough to have mass gatherings like concerts or ballgames without either mass adoption of the vaccine or a means of signaling.” <\/b><\/p>\n

Well, that has the sound of checkpoints and \u201cYour Papers Please!\u201d to me.<\/p>\n

The businessman went on to say, “I’ve been tested at a photo shoot or interview and gotten a bracelet showing I was negative. Then we could interact more freely.” <\/b><\/p>\n

And those tests have been shown to be 100% accurate, right? They never give false positive or false negative results, do they? No rush, I\u2019ll wait.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, people who actually read history let fly at this totalitarian\u2019s nitwit idea.<\/p>\n

Yang was blasted for the suggestion on Twitter, with many likening his idea to the way Jewish people were labeled in Nazi Germany. <\/b><\/p>\n

Conservative podcaster Stephen Miller<\/a> replied, “Might want to rethink this one before running for mayor of the city with the largest concentration of Jewish population in the country,” referring to reports that Yang may run for mayor of New York City. <\/b><\/p>\n

Conservative podcaster Stephen Miller<\/a> replied, “Might want to rethink this one before running for mayor of the city with the largest concentration of Jewish population in the country,” referring to reports that Yang may run for mayor of New York City. \u201c<\/b>This is Nazi talk Andrew,” wrote director Robby Starbuck<\/a>, while someone else added <\/a>sarcastically, “How about yellow star attached to our shirts?” <\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course, Yang has his defenders. They don\u2019t see any problem with marking people who haven\u2019t taken the vaccine. Of course, I suspect they also have no problem with rounding up Trump supporters and sending them off to the reeducation camps either.<\/p>\n

Not everyone found that analogy fair. One person wrote, “As a Jew I find it pretty insulting that people are comparing a QR code that shows whether you can transmit a deadly disease to the Nazis marking my ancestors for slaughter, but whatever. That’s politics I guess.” <\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Jewish? Uh huh sure, if you say so. Personally, I think this person is more of a paranoid hypochondriac rather then a person who is Jewish. I may be wrong of course.<\/p>\n

Some folks also referenced<\/a> the mark of the beast from the Book of Revelation, with one tweeting<\/a>, “Got to be some sort of….. mark.” Turning Point USA contributor Graham Allen<\/a> drew a correlation to communist China, writing, “Let me guess social credit comes next?” <\/b><\/p>\n

The Mark of the Beast is a bit over the top, but the Socialist Credit system? That\u2019s already in use. (See Facebook, Twitter and Google)<\/p>\n

Others agreed with Yang, with one person<\/a> noting that everyone who is inoculated for COVID-19 will receive a vaccination card from the CDC, and suggested people “take a pic of it to show getting into events.” <\/b><\/p>\n
