Hard to say how sick I am of people like Fysh drawing false equivalence between Nazi Germany: Gestapo, Auschwitz, Buchenwald, Blitz, genocide
and
Vaccine passports, lockdowns, masks in a pandemic, or the EU, etc

Just stop.

Motives matter
Outcomes matter
Lives matter

Exceptionalists, Libertarians, and Nationalists are taking us to dark places.
Whereas our human superpowers are the light of understanding, cooperation, creativity, rationality, inclusion, and compassion, not the gloom of deceit, division and distrust.
