Thats' being forced IMO, lose everything or comply. May as well shoot me at that point. It's a NK tactic, these people have to walk a fine line between life or death.

This is the path we walk now because technically they did not force anyone to take it, we had options, you may lose your job, your insurance and your way of life, but you weren't forced, just very coerced.
They did not force you, but they can make your life a living hell if you do not comply.

It was all lies and active disinformation.
Perception management includes all actions used to influence the attitudes and objective reasoning of foreign audiences and consists of Public Diplomacy, Psychological Operations (PSYOPS), Public Information, Deception and Covert Action.
There are nine strategies for perception management. These include:
1. Preparation — Having clear goals and knowing the ideal position you want people to hold.
2. Credibility — Make sure all of your information is consistent, often using prejudices or expectations to increase credibility.
3. Multichannel support — Have multiple arguments and fabricated facts to reinforce your information.
4. Centralized control — Employing entities such as propaganda ministries or bureaus.
5. Security — The nature of the deception campaign is known by few.
6. Flexibility — The deception campaign adapts and changes over time as needs change.
7. Coordination — The organization or propaganda ministry is organized in a hierarchical pattern in order to maintain consistent and synchronized distribution of information.
8. Concealment — Contradicting information is destroyed.
9. Untruthful statements — Fabricate the truth.

The biggest LOLZ I got was Canada and countries that allow euthanasia requiring a person to be fully vaxxed before they could kill themselves.
I just worry that they're going to do a repeat in the near future. It would take an even heavier hand of control to force people to comply next time, but TPTB are probably up to the task.
