TL;DR- It was all supposed to be "15 days to flatten the curve"
This is the slippery slope to Bill Gates' quantum dot ID(666) proving you had the vaccine. Just remember the more you slide down the slope the longer you have to climb back up once you realize you are sliding. Maybe it stops at masks in a few weeks and I look like an asshole, or maybe it keeps sliding.
You should write down your hard "line in the sand" and stick to it....otherwise you will follow anything they tell you. Like a slow boiled frog! I for one am betting they force vaccines for employment and eventually grocery shopping. The slope always starts somewhere valid and small like "we just want to take down the Confederate statues I swear!" or any gun law that builds on more gun laws. You can now lose your gun rights via misdemeanor crimes with Red Flag laws coming. DWI limits have been going lower and lower as well. Slippery slopes are real when the evidence supports them. This situation fits the mold quite well.
What you're saying and the view point of always being on the watch for tyranny is absolutely on point and has to be shouted from the roof tops. Much respect.
Individual employers can actually require things in the current legal precedent, I work in human services and my employer required a flu shot some years ago and the policy was later reversed. It's still legal even though I personally don't favor flu shots due to the variation inherent in the flu. They're a useless profit making device for an already bloated in the wrong ways healthcare system.
That's also in line with a government policy of letting businesses run themselves the same way that hobby lobby doesn't pay for birth control.
As regards my personal line it's totally related to individual liberty. To me wearing a piece of cloth over my face to inhibit spread of something potentially lethal, especially to older folks and people with pre existing conditions is no big deal. But invading private property or enforcing regulations on private property is right fucking out. Stay the fuck off my lawn mr government.
I'm a man of science and viral lifecycles and their spread in an urban cattle like population is something I know a bit about. It's actually a serious deal. It's not a political thing on my end nor something that is without historical precedent. See the 1918 flu pandemic.
Inherently a cloth barrier helps resist the spread of particulates that are a primary means of transmission for the 'rona and a bunch of other shit. Like covering your mouth when you cough.
It's science. I'm a fan of that.
That said I thank you for your discussion and view point and wish you much hot tendies and meth as well as all the gats you can hold.

Thanks for the nice essay, I honestly read it all! You must have burned through all your meth fueling that, much respect.
The real question is what happens when all of society chooses a path you disagree with? I think the only honorable choice is to divorce yourself from that society. I fear that point is coming soon. Where people must choice, cuck to society no matter how "wrong" they are, or walk off into the sunset to become Amish.
