It is NOT normal — or ethical — for a government to fan the flames of hatred toward the unclean. Nor to put such pressure on people to take an emergency approved vaccine, amounting to a severe violation of informed consent. As a culture, we have learned nothing from the great genocides, democides and tyrannies.
Dissent, in a nuanced way. You state, "As a culture, we have learned nothing from the great genocides, democides and tyrannies." This is incorrect. WE have learned a lot. The powers-that-be have also learned a lot, but the payoff, the goal, the outcome they want, exceeds any perception of the costs of their actions. As with psychopaths of history, they believe they know what is best. Their sycophants are just getting paid.
Horrific.
