1 in 7 people have dumped their friends over COVID-19 vaccine stance
“A survey of 1,000 Americans – conducted by OnePoll on Sept. 2 – examined why people have ended friendships in the last year and a half. Results show 16 percent of respondents have axed three pals from their lives since the pandemic began in March 2020. Of those who ended a friendship, 66 percent are vaccinated and 17 percent don’t ever plan to receive the shot. Fourteen percent of vaccinated respondents — about 1 in 7 — say they parted ways with friends who didn’t want to get the vaccine. Even “Friends” and “The Morning Show” star Jennifer Aniston claims she’s ended friendships over vaccination beliefs.”

Quite revealing mental framework going on here. One drops a friend b/c they won’t submit to what you think they should do even though one claims a “vaccine” protects you from it. What’s that say about ones ability to accept freedom of choice.
I dumped most of my family over this. Presented all the facts. It was clear that facts do not matter.
Feelings are how they make life and death decisions. Like 90% of the population.
You are absolutely right about that. Facts, evidence and science mean absolutely nothing to 90%. More than feelings it’s all about staying with the perceived herd. When govt propaganda is blaring out of all news outlets 90% just can’t think critically for themselves. It’s all about staying within the herd.
We are some sort of family here. We argue and for the most part we get along.
Exactly. What value is a family who can’t disagree, but still accept and get along?
The article is slanted towards Vaxxed dumping Unvaxxed
In my estimation the opposite is just as prevalent if not more.
I’M very happy to be done with many “friends” who are afraid to be near me .
Suits me fine keep away …I don’t need your shedding nor your lecturing
