Yikes, Pandemic public health measures are NOT totalitarian in any way, shape or form.

Totalitarian measures are "TOTAL"; i.e., they encompass all aspects of govt and society.

Public health measures are LIMITED to the scope of the public health threat.

Being unwilling to take even small measures that not only help you but also help your fellow citizens does not make you some kind of 'free-thinking libertarian'.

It simply shows you like to behave like a sociopath, and your statement that a policy idea is a result of "trauma" is an uncalled-for insult, as you intended it (which again shows your drive to prioritize feelings over facts). Seriously, no one is trying to "dominate" you. As if you were that important. Sheesh.
