OPINION: The ‘woke mob’ didn’t come for Aaron Rodgers

ATLANTA VOICE — “At the time, my plan was to say I’d been immunized; it wasn’t some sort of ruse,” Rodgers said.”I believe strongly in bodily autonomy and the ability to make choices for your body, not to have to acquiesce to some woke-culture-crazed group of individuals who say you have to do something,” although he did note that he has followed the protocols for unvaccinated players to a T. Rodgers’ reaction to the fallout has been more akin to the Trumpian tactic of refusing to take responsibility for past wrongs and instead attacking one’s critics. Rodgers should — and must — be better than that, both for his teammates and for his legion of fans who admire him and even see him as a role model.
