America was conquered by covidiots who took control of significant portions of state and federal government. They have imposed their will and brainwashed millions. One of those, some ass on sports-talk radio, was defending a travel ban from Florida to Massachusetts. Calling objections to that straw men arguments.

Florida?
Florida still looks like America or how it used to look. You can go out, do things. Mask wearing, distancing, or quarantines exist only at the whim of individuals who choose to embrace them or not.
The result of all this freedom is an ongoing public health vector little different from that of lockdown crazy Covidistan states of California or even Massachusetts. Flordia is as good or better in many regards, not the least of which is, Freedom!
Freedom, economic and individual, same results as the oppressive states. If you were smart, you’d skip the “beatings” for the same outcome. Or, travel to Florida, and stay.
But the ass on sports-talk radio likes the oppression. It’s not for you. You’re killing grandma. Take responsibility. This parrot could have been reading off a promoter at CNN, MSNBC, the DNC, any Teachers Union office, or in that Oval one down DC way.
It’s a game so let’s play one.
We pretend the government or those tasked with governing have that power. They don’t have it but pretend.
A political used-car salesman can wake up on any given day and decide that you cannot travel to or from another state. All they need to do is announce a public health interest?
It does not have to be in the public’s interest. It could have significant downsides like the Covidista regime’s arbitrary and scientifically disputed methods.
Driving, for example, has killed 30-40,000 people annually for as long as we’ve been keeping track. The same people who like these travel bans for Americans (but not illegal immigrants or unvetted men of military age from terror-states) claim our transportation habits are bad for the planet.
From refugees to rising seas.
Why can’t Joe Biden or Gov. Baker or his Eminence Gov. Sununu declare a public health emergency and just ban travel? Think about all those lives we might change, but you must do that in a vacuum. No other consequence, side-effect, lives, displacement, or harm matters.
Making any case outside the approved narrative might get you silenced, canceled, de-platformed, or in some places arrested.
Stick to the program covidiot.
Politicians, government employees, the wealthy, and connected people will continue to move about normally because of their importance. The rest of you take the train, the bus, walk, ride a bike, or get a horse*
There is nothing that differentiates the power, and this is the problem.
It is not about a virus or debating lies about deaths or the flawed tests or fearmongering over known treatments or two masks or none. It is about elected officials and bureaucrats’ power to wave a wand and deny your fundamental human rights or liberties.
It is not okay to embrace or impose them until you feel personally infringed until they step on your toes or put that boot on your neck.
It’s wrong for all reasons, and it must be opposed in call cases. And not just the Covidistas ruling their petty Covidistans.
The walls are closing in, and you’re handing them bricks. We’d appreciate it if you’d stop doing that.
