For those who pushed back on Government COVID demands, why are you now silent?

You revolted against our Government’s demands for masks, vaccines, school closures and social distancing during the pandemic as an intrusion upon parents and individuals’ discretion to make decisions as they deem best for them. That is, don’t tread on my choices.

And, my position then and now is “do as you are told” during a pandemic or World War or hurricane. But, let’s assume that for this post, we agree that our Government ought not tread on our decision-making. If Tampa believes a COVID vaccination or a mask is nonsense, then Tampa should be free to say “no thanks.”

Why then is it suddenly OK for President Trump to demand law firms or universities or institutions to “do as you are told,” or suffer repercussions?

That might be the dumbest analogy you've ever tried. Wow.

Just a little short on substance there, Jake...exactly why do you disagree with that analogy?...

Of course there is absolutely NO WAY you're going to respond with a cogent assessment. Maybe in your uncharted world you're making sense...but not in this one. Let's see what you've got to offer...

Substance? I realize that you're both slow and a dishonest weasel.

I'll keep this simple for you: It's a stupid comparison. A similarly dishonest weasel (although he's not as vile and reprehensible as a subhuman like yourself) is trying to link up forced medical procedures with telling a University that they'll be losing their federal funding if they don't provide the requested information to the same government providing them funding. Continuing the slow walk through this in order to accomodate your I.Q., his post tried to put these both under the same umbrella as "do what you're told."

Summary: It's a dumb analogy. The kind he does often.

benefit of all citizens...which is pretty much what went on during COVID for Federal employees. Not sure that DJT can point to anyone being harmed solely due to instances of Free Speech...therein lies the stupidity of Trump's Executive Orders against Universities.
