The problem of Nazi/Mandatory vaxx and mask comparisons
I'm not that sure - if I had e.g. a diabetic or schizophrenic employee whose condition is in control when they take their medication, I would like to be able to react to them not taking their meds - because the consequences of working with uncontrolled condition can be really serious.

Serious question - where are the limit lines?
SpiceWolf are you objecting to government mandates or any requirements at all?
Not sure I understand precisely what you're asking, but :-
I object to coerced medication on ethical grounds.
Medical ethics are one of the fortifications that stands between society and abominations like Mengeles Experiments or Unit 731.
But I consider the coercion of a state wide government mandate, backed by police and paramilitary violence, ruinous fines and other torments to be a vastly more egregious abuse of force than some private employer, some obnoxious J Jonah Jamesson type, threatening to fire you if you don't let him boss you around in your private medical life. With the obnoxious employer you have, in the final case, the option of telling him to take his job and shove it, even if that is not an easy or cost free choice for you.
Yet society and law widely accepts that threatening to fire your secretary if she doesn't fellate you, is a suffient coercion to invalidate consent. While there is this very pronounced double standard with regards to this particular vaccine.

You answered the question which was about private companies deciding they want only vaccinated employees.
Would you favor undoing decades of policy and having the government drop all vaccine requirements to enter school?
Fines are happening but paramilitary violence and police arresting refusnicks is not happaning.
Double standards in what coercion is illegal are not uncommon. An employer may threaten to fire you unless you stop making political videos, but requiring employees to change their religion is illegal.

"Many of us like to ask ourselves, What would I do if I was alive during slavery? Or the Jim Crow South? Or apartheid? What would I do if my country was committing genocide?' The answer is, you're doing it. Right now." —Former U.S. Airman (Air Force) Aaron Bushnell
But... the first three weren't sponsored by the rotten, filthy, disgusting George Soros, while the vaccines were. (Good god, I hope he dies soon, so I can shart my diarrhea on his grave.) That's why liberal sheep supports the vaccines and trash the other three.
In Australia, the schools policy is a compromise.
Vaccination is the default, but if you have strong, moral, religious or medical concerns, you can gain an exemption via a process that is involved enough to not be a "tick a box" thing, but not so onerous as to impose a barrier on people with sincere concerns. Also, the vaccines mandated by the schools program have been around for decades, so we have as good a safety profile on them as we will ever get.
That system is a compromise I can live with as it doesn't impose on those with strong convictions, while setting a default for people who don't really care either way.
If the system being used for Covid was the same as the system used in schools in Australia, I wouldn't have such a huge problem with it.
But, the mandates in Victoria, do not permit religious exemptions, nor moral or ethical exemptions and the medical exemption requirements are so extreme that medical exemptions exist more in theory than in practice.
They are also building what is, at it's core, a Chinese style Social Credit System to enforce this vaccine apartheid.
Even if I had no safety concerns about these vaccines, even if these vaccines were perfect and flawless, the system being used to mandate them, is now so totalitarian, and so utterly draconian, that I would be forced to oppose it even if I was vaccinated.
Take Hep A/B, I'm fully vaccinated against Hep A/B, but if they brought in this mandate system for the Hepatitis vaccine, I would rip up my vaccine certificate.
Not because I think the Hep vaccine is bad, the Hep A/B vaccine is marvelous. But I will not support or cooperate with this kind of neo-fascism with it's internal passports, social credit scores etc.
After seeing this, I'm saddened that so many members on this site still support liberal politicians. Democrats are not our friends! They pander to those who leech off our tax money, and screw over the rest! How would you if your store was looted, and your mayor and your governor gave the looters political support and George Soros's money, along with whatever they took from your store and the damage the did to it? Wake the hell up! We're aspies! You should know better!
Oh, and I'm fully vaccinated. So you have no leverage over me in that regard, liberals. Shove that in your pipe and smoke it.

You do realize that not every member of an activist group advocating for change is a vandal or a looter, or condones those actions, right? Being in support of equality and respect for one another does not equate to being in support of looting and vandalizing. I do feel bad for businesses that have been affected by such actions, and hopefully they were able to be compensated for what happened to them, but there are plenty of people who peacefully protest and assemble only for a cause they believe in. I just looked up this George Soros guy, and he can do what he wishes with his money.
Personally, as an Aspie, I tend to feel more marginalized by Conservative governments than I do by Liberal governments, and as I do perceive myself as belonging to a marginalized group, I kind of sympathize with other such groups, even as a straight White guy. As I want others to be more understanding of neurodiversity, I do my best to understand the contexts under which other groups operate, even if there's no actual way for me to walk a mile in their shoes.
I'm only stating why I think the way I do though. You clearly see the world differently than I do, and...that's cool, I guess.

In an appearance on "Fox News Primetime" Monday, Logan said that people have told her that Fauci doesn't represent science, but represents Josef Mengele, the Nazi doctor who became known as the "Angel of Death" for the atrocities he committed.
"I am talking about people all across the world are saying this," Logan claimed, providing zero evidence to support her wild assertion.
Fox News did not respond.
But elsewhere, the reaction was swift, with top organizations calling out Logan's comments as reprehensible.

RFK Jr. invokes Anne Frank at DC anti-vaxx rally
“Even in Hitler’s Germany, you could cross the Alps into Switzerland, you could hide in the attic like Anne Frank did,” Kennedy said at a rally against vaccine mandates on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., on Sunday. “Today the mechanisms are being put in place that will make it so none of us can run, none of us can hide.”
The Twitter account for the Auschwitz Memorial Museum in Poland condemned Kennedy’s comments in a tweet Sunday.
“Exploiting of the tragedy of people who suffered, were humiliated, tortured & murdered by the totalitarian regime of Nazi Germany – including children like Anne Frank – in a debate about vaccines & limitations during global pandemic is a sad symptom of moral & intellectual decay,” the account stated.
Kennedy has repeatedly utilized Holocaust related metaphors to discuss his anti-vaccination stance. In his book about coronavirus vaccines released last year, Kennedy titled one chapter “Final Solution: Vaccines or Bust.” According to the Guardian, when asked about the title, Kennedy said: “I don’t think the vaccines have anything to do with eradicating the Jews.”
In 2015, Kennedy used the word “holocaust” to describe proposed legislation mandating vaccines for children, and was criticized by the Anti-Defamation League. “I want to apologize to all whom I offended by my use of the word ‘holocaust’ to describe the autism epidemic,” Kennedy said at the time.
Everybody has a right to say what they want but boy I am getting really pissed.

One would think the comparisons would be to Stalinist Russia or Maoist China, since they’re the “everything I don’t like is socialism!” crowd.
I think we need to impose fines or possible jail time for those who refuse to vax.

No aid or comfort to the liberals. No way.

Then they came for me. But by then, there was no one left to object.
If you're conservative when you're young, you have no heart! If you're liberal when you're mature, you have no brain!

you mean the vaccine Trump poured millions into to jumpstart development was funded by Soros and Soros alone? How does that work?
