I'll remember which party used a Jim Crow segregationist slogan to describe a public health protocol.

Can you explain how "flatten the curve" went to "no re-opening until we have a vaccine"?

Government overreach is always wrong, even when wielded in the name of public health. Point made.

You're mildly inconvenienced for like three months. It's not government overreach on par with the dehumanizing abuse of segregation. Grow up.

I hope you're right about the three months and mild inconveniences. Segregation was immoral and dehumanizing, but rationalized as for the greater good. I don't want to be in that group even for lesser injustices.

But you're trying to isolate the rationalization from the value that was driving it. We rejected the rationale for Jim Crow because it was the act of segregation itself that was immoral. Why would you think we'd accept your equivalence without that root?
