Alex Berenson explains his thinking. > And so I tweeted “impfung macht frei” on Friday morning: Vaccines make free. The reference is not to the vaccines as agents of mass death - they are not. The reference is to the lie that vaccines would set you free, if only you would shut up and line up when it was “your turn.” (Remember that bit of focus-grouped nonsense?) > Now the people who have been mad at me for 18 months for pointing out their lies are mad about this too. To point out the lies is to disrespect the Holocaust, they say. > I doubt they believe a word they’re saying at this point. Their anger is purely performative. Holocaust comparisons far more explicit than that one have been thick on the ground the last four years, and no one has batted an eye ... *Update:* Alex was banned by Twitter. I am not sure if we are supposed to defer to Twitter's judgement in all cases. I would think his explanation of his thought process would be relevant to anyone concerned about too much power to shape public communication being concentrated in too few hands. I do not understand the reason for the flag. Of course, I will defer to the mods, but the submission does not seem to violate the guidelines[1].
