    My parents keep insisting these people are good and if the government cracked down on them then it would be "authoritarianism" and "bad" because "freedum"

      "Authoritarianism" is when stop people from actively killing people going about their lives.

      in a vague sense it would be authoritarian. I just happen to think an authoritarian act saving lives is, in fact, good.

        I mean, seat belt mandates could be considered "authoritarian" -- and they're completely necessary and good

        now if only the freedumb anti-mask crowd would turn their ire onto seat belts
