    No, you were not required to. But you were also excluded from a lot of life if you didn’t. And a lot of people were foaming at the mouth and very much desirous of an outright requirement.

      But you said

      I prever not to live under an authoritarian state.

      So what authoritarian state? Being “excluded from a lot of life” is not an authoritarian state if it was just a result of people deciding not to be around you if you made the choice to be a health risk.

      Or is this like a child screaming “YOU CAN’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!!!” Just because they can?

      I didn’t want to have to sit next to someone infected with infectious disease when on an airplane.

      Don’t blame the government, they were just implementing policies I wanted to protect me from people that had a higher probability of being a disease carrier because they get their medical advice from the internet.

      excluded from a lot of life if you didn’t.

      Take personal responsibility for your shitty choices and stop crying that there are consequences.

      You’re either a strong individual who makes controversial choices or a quivering coward who complains about the govt. Pick a fuckin lane lol
