Ok, so the US was a fascist state when we did a polio vaccine rollout? Jeez look how far the US fell after the polio rollout (sarcasm) …

As I mentioned, I replied to the wrong thread. Requiring vaccines doesn’t make us fascist. The tight integration of big corporations and the US government arguably does. By that definition, we’ve been fascist for a long time.

But yes. I think the more intertwined business interests and government becomes, the worse things will get in the US.

Do you get a yearly polio booster?

Would you, if one was required to not get polio? What argument are you even making?

I'm arguing that you can't compare the two.

Well it's not a very convincing argument
