I'm not zero percent afraid of Covid. It took my dad (even though he was vaccinated). I accidentally gave it to him (pre symptomatic and vaccinated). Other than being old (73) he was healthy (a vigorous and active 73). So clearly, it can be dangerous.

Still, i am extremely concerned by the authoritarian direction our society is taking. Also, why are we attempting to force a vaccine onto people when it doesn't stop the spread and doesn't protect from the disease?

Yep. The “ vaccine” doesn't stop the spread of Covid 19… But it did help spread Billions n billin$ n billions of dollars to big phama AND BACK TO BRIBE the professional griters …. Bribe = campaign donations etc. professional grifters = politicians

Yes it is true, the Biden Administration is taking advantage of the outbreak to control the populace with a lot of deception. However, in doing so, you end up trivializing a deadly disease that has ravage the globe, killed millions, and put even more into permanent physical ailment just so you can push your own anti-government agenda and narrative. This makes you not any better than the government.

You don't need to be that afraid.
I can assure you with 100% certainty that no one on the left or leaning left want an authoritarian government.

These are unique times. They call for unique measures. Mandates are only an issue because every measure that has ever been suggested to combat this pandemic has been met with uninformed opposition. First, it was quarantining. That worked for 3 weeks. 3 weeks later, when it was time to end quarantine, left said "No, keep quarantine." And we didn't. And the virus spread.
Masks and social distancing were recommended. No one liked that, but it was something we had to do to minimize it. Population morale was already low with political strife. Then, a man was slowly killed on video. Whether it was murder or not, he was killed. Everyone, on both sides, had had enough. Because of this, riots took place, protests took place. One side used masks, the other didn't. The virus continued to spread.
The vaccine was advocated by Trump and Operation Warp Drive. He was cheered on by his constituents when he mentioned the possibility of getting the vaccine done by election day. Democrats were concerned about the safety of the vaccine if it was rushed that early when experts on vaccine synthetization said we wouldn't see a vaccine until early January. Fortunately, it was done a month early.
Because of this, and Biden's drive to push vaccines out as quickly as possible, the view of the vaccine shifted negatively among the right. The left was pleased that the CDC and all involved with the vaccine were able to proceed at their own pace. However. Biden did enact Emergency Use Authorization. If you look at how Emergency use and normal use of drug testing works, you'll find that before this was a serious talking point for the right, the number of tests needed for Normal Use had already been reached (About in February March) is when this was made into an issue, at least as viral messaging goes on the internet.
Today, many people assert that the virus is rushed, in spite of the fact that 10,000,000,000 vaccines have been administered worldwide and there have been only a handful of deaths due to complications of the vaccine.
Yet, to incur political favor, vaccine misinformation is being pedaled since COVID denial is outdated, as well as masking and social distancing.
So now, we have (according to the right) a vaccine that doesn't work, for a virus that has no symptoms.

... Right.

Ya you can write a book about it but leftist authoritarian ism is on the rise and it never ends well. Ask Mao and Stalin’s citizens. Or Pol Pot’s or Kim I’ll snug’s or Castro or Chavez. Leftist authoritarianism is a danger, period. Stifling and censoring information and debate and facts by erroneously labeling everything that doesn’t agree with the party line “misinformation” is a tell tale dig of authoritarianism.

That said, the left is trying in numerous ways to make it safe for everyone else who wants to move on with life. The Right ignores the need for vaccines, convinced that if they aren't 100% effective, they're useless. This isn't how vaccines work. Vaccines lower your chance to pass the virus, they lower the chance that you can pass it, and they lower the chance you will be seriously sick with what ails you.
Some of the Right argues that the issue lies within the wording of people familiar with this issue that absolutionist statements were used regarding the efficacy of the vaccine. That's an issue of prescriptivism and descriptivism, a huge issue that communication between people have.
Yeah, the virus isn't going away. Let's just ignore the idea that it's the fault of the non-compliant. The Right Wing still would rather go on without anything to help out anyone else (Maybe teachers want to be vaccinated. Maybe they have conditions that put them at risk to respiratory infection in spite of vaccination. Now, they're being subjected to students who are unvaccinated.
Perhaps, under normal circumstances were manageable. But with how intrusive COVID can be, and how infectious it is, their body with their meds cannot keep up with that.

Part of why vaccination requirements were in school in the first place.

Beyond diabetes, obesity and asthma, who else is at risk?
People with Organ Transplants
Cancer Patients
People with Immuno Deficiency Disorders.
And so many more.

Easily 1/5th of America is at risk. Most of those are still alive because they know what they need to do to be safe.

In other words the left is trying to make it safe for everyone who agrees with them politically. That’s freedom to you? Your naive.

That's how it starts. Look it up. Jews had to wear a yellow star at the beginning to differentiate them from the rest of the Germans.

People often cite the vaccine passports as a parallel to the nazi star system. Which, is kind of funny as now they require voter ID to vote.

Both sides say "Gotta have your papers to do X"

Throw away your ID and try to pick up your antidepressants from a pharmacy, buy a smart phone so you can ask it what you should cry about today, marry your boyfriend, rent an apartment in a crime infested Democrat city, buy your weed, apply for your welfare, drive your potato powered prius, get your vaccine, the second vaccine and the dozen boosters that don't work.

It's funny, the same Democrats that require ID to get the jab, want vaccine passports with your name, DOB and photo attached to prove you are vaccinated are the same hypocrites that believe it's racist to require ID to vote.

Throw away your ID and try to pick up your antidepressants from a pharmacy,
- In most pharmacies, you don't need your ID. You need your name and date of birth. This is why a spouse or relative can pick up meds for you.

buy a smart phone so you can ask it what you should cry about today,
- I'm picking up a trend in how you write, you seem to be prejudiced against those seeking better mental health.

marry your boyfriend,
- I am not homosexual, but I do fully endorse the pursuit of happiness by all people. Am I correct in assuming that this is something you're against?

rent an apartment in a crime infested Democrat city,
- Funny, the violent crime rate in Jackson MS is 733 violent crimes per 100,000 people, which is double the national average and triple the Mississippi average. The crime rates for murder, rape, robbery, and assault are: Jackson Murder Rate: 23 murders per 100,000. This is a Republican City in a Republican State.

buy your weed, apply for your welfare,
- Republicans receive more welfare...
drive your potato powered prius,
- Interesting that the right complains about gas prices when they use gas guzzlers to drive up the demand and limit supply. But w/e.
get your vaccine,
- I did; I want this pandemic to end.
the second vaccine and the dozen boosters that don't work.
- In what metric do they "not work?" I assure you, they do perform what they were designed to do.

It's funny, the same Democrats that require ID to get the jab
- First I've heard of it...

want vaccine passports with your name, DOB and photo attached to prove you are vaccinated are the same hypocrites that believe it's racist to require ID to vote.
- Where I live, you need your name, date of birth, vaccination date, and vaccine used. That's it. So your entire premise is faulty. I also checked WHO, webmd, goodrx, and other medical websites asking what a vaccine passport is. The most passive example I saw was a QR code you can scan on your phone. THe most invasive being the example that I have; a vaccine card with your vaccinations relating only to COVID-19.

Stop your fear mongering.
