I think it's a bit disingenuous to read "People here want lockdowns and masks to not work" and instantly paint it as being in favor of "pro-authoritarian" measures. I personally value individual freedoms but not at a level that erodes the individual freedoms of others. I prefer the freedom to not be murdered to the freedom to murder and I'll gladly accept the freedom to not get sick in exchange on some limits on what restaurants I can go to - that doesn't mean I'm on board with everything Stalin ever said. We always live in the grey zone - there aren't absolute good actions we can take in the world so every choice needs to be a balnce.
