forcing a political view on someone, in and of itself, is not the definition of fascism.
ITs still too early to say if long covid is real or to what extent it is prevalent. But it deserves our attention and concern for sure. I've spent the last 2 years working to address COVID as a disease and it would be concerning if it turns out to be worse long term than we thought.
It is literally a violation of liberty by definition.
Liberty is defined as "the state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one's way of life, behavior, or political views."
Therefore creating a government which by definition imposes restrictions on which political views can be agreed upon by a society and executed is, by its fundamental nature a violation of liberty.

You do realize that doesnt advance your argument that the numbers were over-reported?
As was pointed out the numbers have consistently be shown to be more or less accurate. In fact if anything they were likely underreported.
Whic immutable OS we even talking about. Closest I can think of outside of livecd based distros is nixos... but ive never heard it called that.
Except that it literally isnt. Mussolini was a lot of things, a political science expert he was not.
While fascism can of course be achieved through corporate power, that is not a requirement of fascism and is simply one among many ways to get there. They most certainly arent synonymous.
Did we slip into corporatism or fascism, those are completely different ideas with wildly different components, and there can be a lot of overlap there.
Of course im still describing a republic, a republic is a specific form of democracy, why would I not be describing a republic?
A republic is a type of democracy. The proper term is a "Democratic Republic" ... you are thinking of r a"Direct Democracy" which is another form. There isnt just one type. and since there isnt just one type it is silly to try to say its a crap system since it isnt a single system, it is a category of systems.
My grandfather (a WWII vet) had to walk that slippery scope to get to school, uphill, both ways, in the snow.
Everything at every level is a balance. Even in the USA where free speech (And the tolerance that goes with it) is a primary right. Yet even in america tolerance has its limits, and there are in fact quite a few restrictions with regards to the appropriate way to express your rights.
You are talking about specific exammples of tolerance. and that is fine. But the conversation is just about tolerance in the general sense, not legality or anything like that. Or even tolerance in public space. Those are specific subsets that of course can have their own discussions.
When talkking about public spaces we do have free speech restrictions even in the USA, even on the side walk. They are referred to as time, place, and manner restrictions, then you also have calls to action and other aspects of free speech and tolerance.
