Second. See how it hurts to be excluded? Its along the lines of putting up a false barrier and saying, " Stay out " and yet you waltz right in. The rules do not apply to you, obviously. That is the same sentiment a lot of people have towards authority figures trying to regulate their lives and movements.
Its a stupid power play to immediately try to exclude people from society. Participation is not allowed, because you do not have a star on your belly.
Its almost play by play as the Sneetches on the beaches. Exclusion, then monkey-mc-bean offering a solution, you just have to go into my star machine. Remove the monetary incentive, and why WOULDNT you go in? It hurts to be excluded.
The pain seems to just be one way. A lot of people took pride in themselves for excluding people on vaccine status.
An easy comparison. I am glad that you were unable to resist participation. Though please try and keep it relevant to vaccine discussion.
Exclusion has been studied, deeply, many times before there was the humanitarian regulations on the experiments. The famous example of the US school teacher segmenting her class into groups based on hair and eye color, then making the brown haired kids wear collars comes into example.
with MRI scanning, we now know that the same areas of the brain responsibly for pain are activated when someone is shown social situations where they are excluded. Inflicting pain for compliance is normally frowned upon, but suddenly, everyone wanted to get in on it.
