• California Santa Cruz County Mandates Masks in Private Homes

• Australia plans regional quarantine camps for Indigenous close contacts

Mandating masks in private American homes? Sending Indigenous Australian people to “camps” because they may not be able to quarantine at home? Regulating what people do, even in their own homes? Sending a disfavored minority to “camps”?

Are the officials who order such mandates so stupid and ignorant of 20th century history that they do not see the danger of what they are doing? Doing something in the name of safety does not make it any less dangerous.

Or are they so deaf that they cannot hear this rousing marching song? Soon it will be so close that they can no longer pretend not to hear it. But by then it will be too late. It’s a real toe-tapper, isn’t it? The SS troopers in the movie also claimed to be acting in the name of public safety. Their motto was also Befehl ist Befehl, an order is an order.
