The Left really can't decide if a person should have authority over their own medical decisions or not. Abortion? A woman's absolute choice! Puberty blockers? A decision between a child, their parents, and their doctor. Mandatory COVID vaccine? Well ...
Per CBS News:
'As Americans consider whether to take advice from federal health officials and get an updated COVID vaccine, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is drumming the message that ignited his national political career: Ignore what the federal government tells you about COVID-19.'
Daniel Salmon, a vaccine expert at Johns Hopkins University, insisted,
"They don't know COVID," Salmon said. "They're cherry-picking facts to defend their position. And they don't have the expertise to make those decisions for a large number of people."
"It felt to me like they were trying to sow doubt," he said, "and that's dangerous."
That's just it, Salmon, DeSantis isn't making that decision for anyone.
We are making it for ourselves.

Funny how quickly that flipped, when it didn't fit the narrative anymore.

Could not be more accurate.
Every liberal axiom is an entirely disposable artifact that served a specific purpose in a specific situation. We confuse them with deeply-held, consistent ethical codes and misdiagnose hypocrisy when they're discarded. It's about Ws and Ls. It's about hierarchy. Always has been.

Remember when bodily autonomy was all the rage?
Oh wow. Being able to have say over what goes into your body and not being forced by the federal government, whose corrupt health officials lied over and over again, to take “medicine” you don’t need…what a concept! https://t.co/vYKHrMemgY

"Freedom is dangerous" is certainly one hell of a take.

What matters is what our betters think is best for us.

Good to know some people think we shouldn’t make our own medical decisions.

"Critics say" pieces are always, I repeat, always editorializing pretending to be journalism.

Your freedom is always dangerous to those who seek to control you.

Good. https://t.co/lyi7Rpoi1j
Guess it just depends on the daily narrative.
Medical freedom is dangerous! Tomorrow, though, it’ll be back to, “My body! My choice!” https://t.co/ajqcgkOp4Y

Making your own choices? What an insane concept!
In Florida, we don’t have medical mandates. Each patient has the freedom to choose whether they get a vaccine and wear a mask or not https://t.co/ZfA2h2zNzR
— Brendon Leslie (@BrendonLeslie) September 20, 2023
Here in Florida we enjoy the Patients Bill of Rights. One of those rights is to REFUSE medical treatment, advice, Mandates, or any fucking thing else you commie rat bastards want to dream up. https://t.co/On5zMivqWP

Medical freedom is a winning message. https://t.co/Vh13c1b6ih
There is nothing dangerous in people making their own medical choices.

I’m thankful for his message of medical freedom. This is a positive message.

When progressives like something it's mandatory and when they dislike something it's banned. There really is no other nuance involved. The idea that people might refuse what is 'best' for them is simply too confusing and upsetting. That's why they mandate things. For our own good.
Fortunately, GOP leaders are fighting back and making sure their own people can live as freely as they choose. 'My body, my choice,' right?
