“Freaks: Coming out as Unvaxxed”
Claire Dooley of DailyClout created an incredible film that highlights the similarities between the discrimination of gay people throughout the years and the discrimination against unvaccinated people that persists today.
The film features Irene and Riley, a couple from New Jersey who had to “come out” to their families twice. First, in college, when they fell in love and each told their families that they were gay, to which they received congratulations and support. The second time was more recently, specifically Irene, when she informed her parents that she and Riley were unvaccinated. Riley had grown up vaccine-free, and Irene shared her opinion when it came to avoiding the flu shot and the mRNA COVID vaccine.
An Emotional Wall
Irene said that it reached the point where she no longer could have conversations about the vaccine with one of her family members, as it became too emotional. Ironically, both Riley and Irene come from liberal, progressive backgrounds and grew up in an environment that preached tolerance. The women described an “emotional wall” that they find divides them from their liberal, pro-gay, pro-vaccine friends. They described a similar wall of ideology among religious conservatives who are anti-gay marriage.
Riley introduced Irene to the Health Freedom movement, and there was a bit of a culture shock for Irene when she first started attending Health Freedom rallies. The rallies leaned heavily politically conservative, and she quickly came to understand that differences of opinion on other topics were a non-issue, and they were all there fighting for the same important cause of health freedom.
Ten Times More Aggressive
Irene and Riley went to Sheep’s Meadow in Central Park during COVID in New York City. They walked through the park, as a couple who were celebrated for being gay, yet were harassed and bullied for holding a sign that said “No Vaccine Passports”. Irene and Riley said that they experienced ten times more aggression and discrimination in that walk through the park than they ever experienced for being gay.

Claire Dooley did a beautiful job juxtaposing the rise of discrimination against unvaccinated people with the cultural fall of discrimination against gay people.

As an unvaxxed lesbian pagan, a huge thanks for showing the challenge of the demographic. Even my lesbian friends who have started to admit the vax damages do not seem to understand the larger contexts of genocide, control grids, the existance of big brother inside each cellphone, the danger of smart meters, of transfection, or the destruction of our food grids. I am considering leaving Portland OR (where I have a half a house and have lived for 30 years) due to the prediction we will be one of the first smart cities, which I cannot abide. The people I considered 'family' are proving to be dangerously uninformed, which makes them dangerous to me. Thanks so much for all of this great content Etana.
Tolerance actually means ideological conformity. The purpose is to cloak totalitarianism in the apparel of representative democracy and thereby subvert democracy and pollute the concept of freedom. You can read stuff like Marcuse's Repressive Tolerance (1965) to see the rationale.
Earlier generations of leftists like Marcuse realized that western liberal democratic institutions such as free speech were inimical to the goal of radical social reorganization and therefore had to be destroyed. Since their top-down social engineering plans would always be met with resistance and pushback from the groups upon whom the most costs were imposed, those group's voice in society had to be erased. Tolerance, which in practice is the accusation of intolerance, supports the erasure of opposing ideas from public discourse.
