I agree, was a hurried comment on the way out the door to the office, my bad. I read OP as basically saying authoritarianism is wrong. What I was trying to say is, the world is a complex place, reasonable people can disagree. I wasn't trying to say I'm particularly smart, only that I don't think I'm totally ignorant, and also that I realize that it's complex and there is further discussion to be had (although it's not for me).

The difference is that authoritarian measures also affect those with different opinions. That isn't reciprocated by more liberal ideas. Especially when people are more safe than ever before, the measures proposed here merit some pushback.
