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
as someone who cares about public health but is also wary of coercion as a tool this makes me less inclined to ever support coercive means for public health ends, because it reminds me that people like him will be the ones designing and executing the coercive policies from DC
I want to reemphasize that I am vaccinated and wish other people would be vaccinated. Supporting pushes for vaccines is something that it should be easy to get me behind.
So it is especially frustrating that expressions like the one in the screencap exist because I think they make it /less/ likely that people who are reluctant to get a vaccine will actually do so, if for no other reason than to spite people who clearly hate them and wish them ill
rulers in a democracy cannot afford to be openly contemptuous of the people they govern, and even aside from that this kind of attitude is indecent and inhumane and I really wish people quite generally would stop burning down the country to own their outgroup
update. rebuttal from the original poster of the above screencap. I am happy to acknowledge that I misunderstood the context of the original (deleted) post, although net im not sure it changes anythingpic.twitter.com/2qMXVB6XPS
It changes one thing: he's referring to a policy that was implemented and worked. Taiwan was a corona fortress. It's now suppressing alpha.
its about tyranny of the spirit
