The flu is not a coronavirus.. though you are right that vaccinations have never been an effective measure against coronaviruses.
@TruthAndFreedom@masthead.social @pthenq1
Dude your talking out of your ass, none of the mutations this virus has underwent is remotely unusual and none of them constitute a new strain, they are all classivied as "variants" which is much less severe a mutation than a strain.. There is no evidence these mutations in any way risk the vaccination...
You are literally just making up arguments that dont actually exist to support your bias and im pretty sure you know it because no research backs up anything you said.

@khird tons of news about it everywhere, was just announced today officially:
@khird CNN and business insider supported it.. plus biden made it as one of his campaign promises at the DNC acceptance speech.. i am positive.
Thats not how it has worked out with a single disease in the past.. we have vaccinated against countless diseases so far, not once has it been mandatory or require anything like this and they all were eliminated just fine.. your making up shit that has nothing to do with the reality we have seen over the course of 100 years of doing this!
@TruthAndFreedom@masthead.social
measles, tuburculosis, smallpox.. none of these required registrations or mandatory vaccination and guess what, they are damn near nonexistant in the country today... so tell me again why it is needed? Clearly the evidence in every single disease we vaccinated to date shows it is not.

We never needed "passports" like this before and its just fine.. your argument is so stupid, anyone who wants to be protected can and will just take the vaccine

@hans_w Why would we need to keep the economy closed, it worked out fine with every past disase, re:vaccines
Today Biden realized my worst fear.. worst president in fucking history.. He just announced today a "vaccine passport" where it can be freely used to discriminate against you if you don't have one showing you got a COVID vaccination. This means jobs can fire you, businesses can require it to enter, and it can prevent you from flying.
In effect it now encourages and enables business and entities to discriminate based on an aspect of your medical records and effectively provides a means to circumvent existing laws that would otherwise protect your medical records.
To add insult to injury we arent even talking about a normal vaccine, we are talking about the first vaccine in US history that was allowed to completely bypass the last stage of safety tests, which give legal immunity for the companies so they can not be sued if people get sick from the vaccines. So in effect they have set up a situation where you are forced to take a drug that didnt pass full safety tests, against your will, and be excluded from the whole of society if you dont.
@icedquinn No you still get hugs, it just means we can charge you 1,250$ per hug.
@icedquinn You must have american insurance then...
@lattera I support RMS but I dont really agree with this line of thinking.
Volkswagen was founded by the Nazi regime, I dont thinking driving a Volkswagen means you support Nazis being in charge.

keep in mind though we do have data backups that could preserve IP information beyond that timeframe. But even our backups roll over so it wont be stored indefinitely.
pay ratio is a horrible measure.. there is one CEO that guides the entire company and has significant effect on the companies decisions and direction which ultimately is a win or lose for the company.
The average employee represent large numbers of generally low-skill workers. I dont think I've ever ordered something at mcdonalds without someone messing up my order... their quality of work is minimum just as their wage is, and thus fair.
In fact there is only one CEO and tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of employees. But that ratio CEOs should make 10x more, not less.

our servers are load balanced across many countries. What do you mean by rotated ip deletion? Eventually your ip addresses do get deleted but they are retained for some time to help us block users who abuse the services when needed and identify people with sockpuppets.
