Is covid-liberalism a bannable offense in c/covid?

I’m getting really fucking weary of seeing sentiments like, “being upset about someone scheduling a non-emergency dental appointment in the middle of the second largest covid wave is deranged” or “you’re a selfish asshole for expecting your loved ones to do the bare fucking minimum to protect you” in discussions on masking or vaccine uptake

I know I’m not the only one disappointed in the growing anomie. Maybe we should operate more like c/vegan where everything from omnivore apologia to overt antiveganism (analogous to the above anti-precaution/anti-max/anti-vax-apologia) is forbidden, and posting/commenting as much gets you a ban?

    You Someone else was deliberately undermining evidence-based precautionary advice regarding vaccines and masking, despite, apparently possessing the knowledge and tools to see that what you were dispensing was at best merely dismissive of individual efforts towards harm reduction in their own lives, and at its worst, simply harmful advice.

    To be aware of one’s own mistakes and yet make no attempt to correct them, taking a liberal attitude towards oneself. This is an eleventh type.

      Yes, as evidenced by the fact that I stated I masked everyday in a KN95, spray ELAH in my nostrils twice daily, and have every vaccine I am eligible for.

      Look you don’t get to pretend everyone who has a different take on the morality of individual covid precautions is undermining the science of individual covid precautions. I was arguing with a colleague in March 2020 about the efficacy of the N95 I was wearing to the store because “CDC said there’s no evidence those help”, I’m not about to take accusations of mask efficacy minimization from you seriously.
