Leftist Group Calls to Evict the Unvaccinated

On Wednesday, Occupy Democrats, a self-proclaimed “Grassroots political organization dedicated to helping progressive Democrats”, tweeted out the following:

The tweet refers to a recent story on Santiago Alvarez, a landlord in Southern Florida, who last month mandated all new and existing tenants be vaccinated for COVID or otherwise face possible eviction.

The Washington Post reports:

However, just last month, Occupy Democrats were tweeting their fervent support for President Joe Biden’s eviction moratorium:

The issue here is the complete lack of consistency in the case that Occupy Democrats seem to be making, which begs two questions: does there exist a right to housing, as most within the upper echelons of Occupy Democrats would presumably attest? Or, alternatively, is that right entirely contingent on people doing what progressive think tanks want them to?

If the answer is indeed the latter, then it doesn’t just contradict the ridiculous notion of a right to housing. It also validates the idea that vaccine requirements by both private and governmental institutions serve as a gateway to a two-tiered society — a society in which the compliant are strung along by their political betters with perpetual promises of grandeur and the noncompliant are shunned entirely.
