Democratic overreach.

I have no doubt that Hitler considered the Jews to be a "public health crisis" to the well-being of Germany. We know who the brown suit wearers are now thankfully.

Wait...Did you just compare public health initiatives with the holocaust? Please tell me I just misread that.

Maybe so.

But it seems just insane to compare those trying to save people from dying in the pandemic, with Nazis.

Something is really wrong there. Started to suspect a Poe.

When/if they make good on their word to start going door-to-door and harassing the "unvaccinated" (how do they know?) then yes, I most certainly am.

Some random guy hold a nazi sign, who we have no info on is suppose to prove a universal point?

Let's assume the worst and say this guy is a real Trump supporter who wants Trump to be his personal Fuhrer. Okay fine, he's entitled to his position. The issue is when the government starts acting in a dictatorial, totalitarian, and fascist way that we all should have a problem. The partisan support for forced vaccinations against the will of the recipient proves which side fascism-in-action resides.

You really think going door to door and providing information so people can get vaccinated is the same as rounding up and murdering Jews?

It's more than "providing information," it's encouragement and promotion. Soft/passive force is still force. I have never had a government employee on any private property I've resided on that my family didn't first call. This, coupled, with the pending potential of "vaccine passports" is textbook fascism

According to Fox News. They think Trump supporters are just being ironic when they display swastikas. Apparently, most of them aren't really nazis at all.

Your fears are misplaced. There's a lot of things wrong with them, but that isn't one. Still, your point is well-taken. It doesn't mean that some of them aren't nazis; it just means most of them aren't.

I think most people were shocked when it appeared someone was suggesting that encouraging people to be vaccinated against a deadly disease would be fascist behavior.

This happened when I was a kid, with the polio vaccinations. Of course, adults then were people who actually lived through the period when Nazis were rounding up Jews, and many of them had fought to stop that horror.

So if someone came up with that kind of story then, they might not have taken it as gently as we have.

Yea, and those public service announcements from the 1950's were akin to COMMUNIST propaganda!

Promoting public health and welfare is fascism? Explains why the right is against it.

Anyone who actually believes this could theoretically be mugged by telephone.

"Passive" force? Really?

Going door-to-door without permission...absolutely. Why support federal employees coming on private property uninvited?

Did people come on other's property? Don't misconstrue what I am saying, propaganda on tv, radio, internet is one thing, but when you put boots on the ground and start coming to people's homes uninvited that's even further over the line.

There was no outrage in Paris over things that had never happened until the Panzers rolled down

Even in the universe of (x is fascism) analogies, this one is not even close.

The "panzers rolled down" in Paris, because Paris (and France) was invaded by its neighbor (Germany) and the tanks were part of the conquering army.

The Panzers weren't a display of power by the local authoritarians trying to impose their will, but rather foreign invaders.

This has nothing to do with the (overwrought) claims that government power will be used to impose vaccinations on people within the country.

Actually it doesn't. If it really was [fascism], you'd think they'd be for it.

Since when does anyone need permission to knock on your door?

Then eliminate the HIPPA laws that deal with privacy.

Going out and talking with people dosen't violate privacy.

HIPAA applies to disclosure of private health info.

So you're comparing public health workers with Natzis?

What a disgusting sentiment

ding ding ding - we have a winner. Anyone, even the beloved government attempting to get you to disclose private health information _ like if you are vaccinated _ is breaking the law.
