1) Governments closed people's businesses and forbade them from going to work or many other places against their will. Sounds like the stuff my parents used to tell me to explain what it was like behind the Iron Curtain.
2) Government borrowing money to pay people to not work and not revolt with money they don't have and that they get from us! While stealing money for non essential partisan pork. .
3) Government forcing people to take a vaccination or lose their job. Which may in turn make them more dependent upon said government.
4) Government said two weeks to flatten the curve which became two years to flatten the country DESPITE the avalibility of vaccine! Now while everyone has a choice to take the vaccine that was supposed to end all of this but it is still not good enough.!
5) Governments pick and choose when to enforce the law based upon political affiliation. Included the incredible difference between how riots in the poor side of town and one at the congress's doorstep were treated.
6) Legialsted racism against the majority.
7) Government in an unholy alliance with media and social media to form something not unlike "state TV" meanwhile government fails to act against these megacorps for blatant anti-trust and misuse of the Tittle "News Organization"
8) Degenerating our voting process so completely that allegations of fraud while proven, could not be vetted as widespread or not. So no one really knows.
9) Some of us were told how large a group we were ALLOWED to congregate in.
10) Attempted impeachment solely as a political weapon which if successful would create political prisoners
11) Children removed from their parents because the parents would not sign off on dangerous transition techniquies statistically more likely to do harm that good.
12) The existence of kangaroo college campus courts which can ruin a young man's life based upon an unproven accusation all without due process! And government protection of this abomination of justice.
There I have answered. Totalitarianism, dictorial, communist tones complete with differential enforcement of the law and State TV. And powerful government intrusion into virtually every aspect of individuals and family life. Now your turn: How is this Not tyranny?
