At Barclays to support a man who stands up for what he believes (and we can talk about the insanity of the fact NYC hasn’t dropped all mandates another day)…
I don't know what lfgn is either. But, Irving is a basketball player on a New York team, forgive me I don't follow basketball. He refused to get vaccinated and was not allowed to play home games, this cost him millions of dollars but he spoke out against vax mandates. He held the line and never got vaccinated. He stood up for what he believed, as a young healthy man, the vax could do him more harm than good. And he lost millions of dollars while standing his ground.
Damn straight! Listened earlier today to what Kyrie said about FREEDOM. This is a real man of courage! Every so often we see real examples of people in a higher public eye give the masses HOPE. Kyrie does this for many I can imagine! Mama...there goes that man!
On this past Saturday my husband had a tractor accident on our farmland and I took him to the ER at a small Gilroy regional hospital. He was transferred late at night to a trauma unit of Santa Clara Valley Medical Center. When I tried to go in to visit him on Sunday afternoon during visiting hours and bring him new clothes, *see* him, give him his phone, etc. I was forbidden because I am unvaccinated and could not immediately provide a PCR negative test. Same day PCR tests in San Jose are about $100 out of pocket (which I would have paid for just to see him since he was in a serious crash). I was floored. I could not believe they had that policy. Their website (https://www.scvmc.org/patients-visitors/patients/visiting-hours-parking) states that
"Visitors may use either PCR testing or antigen testing. Any PCR or antigen test must either have Emergency Use Authorization by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or be operating per the Laboratory Developed Test requirements by the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Over-the-counter home antigen tests will not be accepted unless they are observed and resulted in front of trained hospital staff."
I brought a home test with me and hoped that I could find a nurse to watch me take it, then wait 15 minutes and then be cleared to visit him. The hospital only allows one visitor a day and I was not allowed to visit. The friend who drove me to the hospital since I was shaken up to begin with had her vaccine card and took up the items to see my husband. I felt like the hospital was treating me like a criminal. I drove out to the county fairgrounds to get an acceptable PCR test that would come back in 1-3 days so I could visit if he needed to stay longer. Thankfully he was discharged on Sunday night.
I am so livid about this entire experience. It makes no sense at this point in time--sure maybe 2020 or early 2021, but it is 20 freaking 22 and the shots do not prevent transmission. I don't know whom to contact at the hospital to complain, but I think it would be a waste of my time. They are all brainwashed and need to give everyone the kool-aid. So beyond angry. I worry if I need to go to the hospital for an accident that they won't even treat me since I'm one of those unvaccinated people. I have lost so much faith and hope in humanity. They are just cogs in the machine.
My Fortune 500 employer just dropped all vax & testing rules for employees. They also let us know that "almost 70%" of our employee population is fully vaxxed (same as US overall). In other words, they realized that after pushing, cajoling, reminding, and even offering cash and prizes for vaccination, they still weren't gonna budge the vaccine-realistic third of their employees. I'm glad I work for a company that can accept defeat graciously. What I wouldn't give to see a breakdown by department/job role of vaxxed vs. unvaxxed...
Box office Kyrie. Has always been on the other team from mine, but have to respect, not only holding the line, but being completely honest about it. Clearly very few with that much to lose were willing to do the same.
One day I hope a future President & Congress recognize Men & Women who stood up to fascist medical & government officials and their stupidity during the Great Pandemic Hoax!😚
I don't think many understand just how damaging social media banning all opposing views of the covid jab really was. Let's say a Dr gets the jab and then develops bells palsy right after, he could go on social media with a video stating his name/credentials etc etc and they would ban him. There was no reasonable discussion allowed, it's either you're for this shit or you're fuckin banned. It's lunacy!!! The same people on the left who accused trump of being a fascist are the true fascists.
I work for a very large global investment bank. I have a medical exemption which they approved. I had Covid in January 2022 and I am still not allowed in the office. But I can go meet clients anywhere else, go to team dinners, book travel for work. Just as long as I don’t enter one of their offices. 🙄
I'm a pureblood who just told our DEIB Committe that I did not feel included because of all the harassing emails corporate sends attempting to coerce us into getting vaccinated. We still have a mask mandate but only for the unvaccinated. We have a corporate MD who makes the recommendations for our healthcare policies. I wish he'd follow the science!
The sovereign individual, awake and attending to his or her conscience, is the force that prevents the group, as the necessary structure guiding normative social relations, from becoming blind and deadly. (Jordan Peterson, Beyond Order)
Pure bloods is bullshit. Do not divide the people who come to hear your point of view. We need to unite. If you took the vaccine or resisted the jab, the fight is not between you and me. It is the plutocrats and everybody else. F’all those who try and divide us.
I appreciate his efforts to stand tall for what he believes in and the financial sacrifice associated with his decisions. I would like to make the case for so many of us that have gathered at Substack for the purpose of standing up for what we believed was right, and have been proven right. All of us have had our share of difficult times swimming against the current of lies coming from almost everywhere during the ruse that they called the pandemic. Saying no to masking, BS social distancing and worse than useless vaccines to tell others the truth also has had it costs for us as well. I think we all can channel into his frustration, pain and sacrifice. Shoulders to the Wheel of Truth for All!
The un-jabbed millionaire can now go "to the office" in NYC and sweat and spit all over his teammates and opponents but my un-jabbed, twice infected (original and Omicron) immune son can't go into his Manhattan office and sit in his office and work. No, this is still a huge SHAM. How much was the NYC Mayor paid to allow this? Maybe this millionaire guy and his teammates can have a few words with the moronic NYC Mayor and explain the facts of immunity to him?
There is zero justification for maintaining these ridiculous mandates with all the data now available proving that vaccinations are affecting more people negatively than they are protecting them. Only a fool or a corrupted politician being paid off by a big pharmaceutical company or an old demented prick running the WEF would continue down this ridiculous agenda path with the proof that's unfolding from Pfizer, CDC and global statistics now.
I would initially say that I was forced to take the jab due to professional international travel requirements, but to the extent that free will exists, I can't blame anyone but myself. I do wonder though: since I took what I thought to be (and still believe to be) the least harmful jab - the non mRNA J&J jab, one time, and lived to tell the tale, can I be considered a pure-blood?
He should face down Adams and tell him, "If you don't lift the mandate, I'm not playing."
Not a pure blood as I am contaminated with the double clot shot. But I support our pure bloods.
Good for him, he held the line and won!
Kyrie Irving highlighting the insanity.
Currently wearing my Pureblood shirt, looking for other survivors of the Depopulation Shots.
Adams' exemption doesn't only expose the left's hypocrisy. It exposes their hierarchy.
I just posted a Substack about this!
Great name and so true. unvaccinated blood is the future GOLD

No one has the right to pick winners and losers like they did in the past 2 years.

Love It. Support this man who has shown us "the stones" he has in this shitstorm of power grab
I don't know the details but I'm a pureblood.
Fauci is making appearances again. He said we may have to reinstitute mask mandates indoors if covid numbers go up. Hell no!

I call myself and others who did not get jabs "non-GMO". I had to take my kid out of school and now paying for private school.
Until it costs a man money, principles are a moving target.
Huge props to Kyrie. Doesn't matter what he does on a basketball court in the past or going forward. He stood up for his principles. A true man.
I knew he wouldn't cave, dude already has a crap ton of money. Obviously stands for what he believes in regardless of what others think
I'm pureblood. Not only have I never been vaxxed, not one jab, I've never been PCR tested even once.
Kyrie is the man!
I’ve never been vaxxed
Box office Kyrie. Has always been on the other team from mine, but have to respect, not only holding the line, but being completely honest about it. Clearly very few with that much to lose were willing to do the same.

Love it!!!
I hate the NBA, but I really want an Irving jersey!

Pureblood here.
I'm thinking Barclays is the stadium where Irving plays his home games and maybe Alex is there for a game...
Whoop whoop!
Pure blood and Covid (Delta) survivor. I’m still happy about my choice.
I'm a pureblood who just told our DEIB Committe that I did not feel included because of all the harassing emails corporate sends attempting to coerce us into getting vaccinated. We still have a mask mandate but only for the unvaccinated. We have a corporate MD who makes the recommendations for our healthcare policies. I wish he'd follow the science!
I am a pure blood
I’ll be there in spirit. Just please no one ask me to step foot in NYC again. My 7 years there were more than enough!
The sovereign individual, awake and attending to his or her conscience, is the force that prevents the group, as the necessary structure guiding normative social relations, from becoming blind and deadly. (Jordan Peterson, Beyond Order)
Kyrie should give his $$ to fired Police and Firemen that refused the jab
Kyrie is a hero.
Pure bloods is bullshit. Do not divide the people who come to hear your point of view. We need to unite. If you took the vaccine or resisted the jab, the fight is not between you and me. It is the plutocrats and everybody else. F’all those who try and divide us.
Absolutely my favorite player. I will root for this guy for the rest of his career
I stopped watching pro sports and college sports a couple years ago, but I am rooting for Kyrie!
If only all of the professional athletes had joined him (& Djokovic)!!!
so Alex is there! im slow
I appreciate his efforts to stand tall for what he believes in and the financial sacrifice associated with his decisions.

bravo to everyone who has spoken up, and stuck by their guns!

I’m so glad Kyrie only played one season at Duke. In spite of his poor choice of schools, I’m damned proud of him. GO HEELS!
I bet on him tonight to score more than 24.5 points so I hope he finishes well
