I think what would have helped is if they had tried a nationwide mandate upfront. Using the divide and conquer strategy keeps people who aren't affected yet on the sidelines. Tell the whole country they're unemployed without a vax on X date and we might see what we're seeing in France.
Making things worse isn't the solution
On Gab they call it accelerationism. If deep state overreaches, the frog jumps out of the pot because they turned up the heat too fast. Using divide and conquer they will eventually force anyone who needs to work to get the vax. And they will then reach a point where they can go ahead and do the nationwide mandate anyway.
