First, there is no place for this on this forum
second, if you want to push a conspiracy or antivax agenda go launch on Facebook or whatever else you want to use to spread your point of view
3rd, even if there was a shred of reality to the idea that this is a power grab by the government, your argument does not outweigh that of the governments which when its boiled down is "we are trying to save lives"
Your freedom not to wear a mask, or to choose not to get a vaccine does not outweigh other peoples freedom to live.
The idea that you can be so upset by a tiny needle and a small inconvenience of wearing a facemask is dangerous and very simply selfish.
You can throw your "articles" and whatever metric you want from the other side of the argument, but the burden of proof lies with you and I am pretty disgusted that anyone would take a standpoint that their life is worth more than anyone elses.
I am locking this thread, as I do not want this site to become a playground for conspiracy theorists and antivax propoganda. If your choice is to not wear a mask and not get the vaccine you are the cause of your own lack of freedom, it saddens me that you are risking other peoples lives such as two of the children in my house and the countless others, be proud that you stood up for your freedoms, plant your flag in the pile of corpses you are standing on.
