...but we shouldn't treat the unvaxxed like 2nd class citizens.
Their virtue is known, cred maintained with their sheep, and the "othering" of the latter group reinforced.
Very tricksy.

And so religion, the greatest of all blessings, for there is nothing, nor has been, nor ever shall be, that can be deemed a greater boon, will be threatened with destruction; men will think it a burden, and will come to scorn it...
They will no longer love this world around us, this incomparable work of God, this glorious structure which he has built, this sum of good made up of things of many diverse forms, this instrument whereby the will of God operates...
"The Fifth Generation Mission-space represents a new environment in which future operations will take place. The complexity of the domain is exacerbated by uncontrolled and undefined actors directing or influencing the narrative...
...The greatest challenge of the mew mission space is
the total erosion of the concepts of the enemy and of war itself. The opponent will be much more ambiguous and warfare will become an insidious creep designed to degrade from within rather than attack from without...
...The challenge in this environment is to understand progress toward the end state: to link the tactical actions in the mission space to the operational direction. This is no longer just a requirement to conduct an assessment of weapons effect...
We live in a country where half the population legitimately fears imprisonment or death at the hands of our government for no reason beyond our opinions.
The other half should too, but they are comfortable in their position of useful idiots.
Racism against whites escalates to dangerous new heights as publications muse about our extermination. Not only do they get away with it, but they are loudly cheered by a bloodthirsty population and a trigger-happy intelligence apparatus.
Our leaders get framed by the feds. Our neighbors get framed by the feds. Our streets and businesses burn to the ground in violent riots and no one goes to jail. Our children are given over to the care of demented perverts and indoctrination camps masquerading as schools.

Skype conversation with an old girlfriend. We still keep in touch, no biggie. I told her I was writing and drawing my comic. I tend to work that way. Something about doing both at once just clicks. Anyway, she asked if I minded multitasking. I didn't, so the conversation began.
Normal platitudes. I don't really remember them, but I got the gist that she's doing well. That's good news. It wasn't that kind of breakup and I'm not a fan of wishing ill on people. The conversation went quiet as I got to work. I sort of "act" the parts as I'm making them...
If the character grimaces, I grimace. If the character speaks, I say the lines until I get them right. I get lost in it.
2 hours go by like that. Me acting and her sitting silently watching my purposeful sort of madness. She didn't give suggestions or laugh at my weird faces...
