If you’re a social conservative, you look around America and see nothing but filth. Pornography, homosexuality, and adultery are everywhere. The government needs to impose traditional values by force, even over the objections of the immoral majority if necessary, to create the virtuous society. Sure, they will complain at first, but in the long run, they will be grateful for it. And you, of course, will no longer have to view a parade of horribles that offends you to the core.
Since social conservatives have no qualms about forcing people to be virtuous, you would think they would support vaccine mandates. But no! In matters involving life and death, it is freedom of choice, not saving lives, that matters most.
This is, of course, rank hypocrisy. And if you think the libertarian left is open to the same charge, remember that sexual morality and public health present different issues. The former is filled with debatable gray areas, but there is no moral or intellectual case for the victory of the virus.
