Here is another celebrity knocking the Covid vaccine mandates, in the US. Boxing legend Floyd Mayweather has offered his support for Kyrie Irving, an NBA player who has chosen not to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. He gave some passionate expressions of the value of freedom. “A free mind makes its own choices; an enslaved mind follows the crowd,” he said. “Stand for something or fall for anything. One man can lead a revolution to stand up and fight for what’s right. One choice, one word, one action can change the world.” Great stuff.
“Since President Joe Biden began his push to subject Americans to vaccine mandates, many have pushed back. On Monday, superstar boxer Floyd Mayweather became the latest famous figure to speak out against the mandates.
In a video posted to his Twitter account, Mayweather expressed support for Kyrie Irving, an NBA player who has chosen not to receive the COVID-19 vaccine.
“America is the land of the free — freedom of speech, freedom of religion and supposedly freedom to choose,” Mayweather said. “Never be controlled by money. I respect you for having some integrity and being your own man.”
Mayweather went on to suggest that Irving is making a true difference.
“A free mind makes its own choices; an enslaved mind follows the crowd,” he said. “Stand for something or fall for anything. One man can lead a revolution to stand up and fight for what’s right. One choice, one word, one action can change the world.”
In the caption of the video, Mayweather made clear that he is not arguing against the vaccine itself, but rather against vaccine mandates.
“America gave us the choice to take the vaccine or not take the vaccine,” he wrote. “As time moves on, that choice is gradually being stripped from us.”
Mayweather is absolutely right. While Americans can technically choose not to receive the vaccine, the federal government wants to make sure that choice comes at the price of a job.
For most Americans, living without employment is not possible. When employers and governments threaten to fire unvaccinated workers, they are attempting to back them into a corner so that compliance is the only viable option.
Leftists on Twitter have attempted to argue that people losing their jobs for refusing the vaccine is simply an example of the old adage “actions have consequences.”
This logic is completely flawed. Losing your job should not be a consequence of a personal medical choice. In fact, this so-called “consequence” is manufactured by tyrannical governments whose goal is to force as many vaccinations as possible.”
