Tyranny is here whether I like it or not. We've been going downhill since the 20th century began, and the thing about going downhill is that you pick up speed. The farther you go down the hill, the faster you go.
So I view the tyranny as similar to cold weather in Minnesota in January. Nothing I do will change the weather. My best choice is to figure out ways to have it affect me the least.
That doesn't mean I go around wearing a mask when I can avoid it. The only three times I've worn a facemask since Covid started is the three times I've been to the dentist's office to get my teeth cleaned. Putting up with the mask for five minutes once every six months or so seems like a better alternative than absolutely refusing to submit to the tyranny of somebody insisting that I wear one.
Tyranny is not the weather. False comparison.
