      im vaccinated and i would really prefer everyone choose to be vaccinated but i dont spend time talking about this for a few reasons. this first is that i dont actually think it would have the desired effect if i just yelled at people about it. relatedly this feels tendentious.

      the third is that the people who are really vocally not just provaccine but coercive about it have a serious missing mood about their stancehttps://www.econlib.org/archives/2016/01/the_invisible_t.html …

      if your position is "having everyone vaccinated is incredibly important, so much so (for various reasons) that we should accept the very real and serious short- and long-term civil costs of coercing people to get a vaccine" i actually respect that thought i dont necessarily agree

      your read may differ, but he seems to be downright /eager/ to use coercive means to attain a public health end, and specifically trying to do some kind of internet-tough guy-but-bureaucratic-for-some-reason framing to attack people who disagree with him

      Replying to @eigenrobot

      many people like to pretend that state actions can be coercive without requiring, you know, actual violence these are the people who scream and throw things at me when I point out that behind every parking ticket lies the threat of death

      "oh, we'll just make it more uncomfortable not to comply than to comply" these are people who have no principles, only guidelines of the moment, and can't understand that there are people in the world who don't care how fucking uncomfortable you make them, they won't do it

      "we didn't fire him; we just fixed the glitch" (the glitch being the boolean in a field telling the death squads NOT to throw him out into the snow without a ration card)
