Continuing this "you're either with us or against us" false dichotomy is only going to result with one day soon finding out that almost everyone is against you

Continuing this "you're either with us or against us" false dichotomy is only going to result with one day soon finding out that almost everyone is against you while wondering how that happened seemingly overnight. There's lots of middle ground to be had but forcing everyone into your camp or "the other" camp is going to result in you being in an rapidly shrinking camp.
- fivea 5y ago> Continuing this "you're either with us or against us" false dichotomy (...) There is no "false dichotomy". There are only basic higiene and public health guidelines which are designed to curtail and mitigate the spread of a viral disease, specially when the spread is unsustainable and causing the colapse of health services. You may very well prefer to opt out of even ever washing your hands, but you cannot force anyone around you to accept the risk your militant and contrarian attitude poses to them and your loved ones, specially when we're dealing with cases based on pathetic and utterly outlandish conspiracy theories. I mean, are we now expected to respect those idiots who were pushing the idea that covid was spread by 5G celular networks? Or are we claiming that rejecting 5G-causes-covid conspiracy theories and the like to be "continuing false dichotomies"?
