Maybe take the time to know the basic facts behind the ridiculous claims you're making.
Do you know any Jews? Ask them about their shared history of Nazi Germany and then ask them how insulting they feel your puerile comparison of their experiences with *being asked to stay at home and wear a mask* is.
Frankly you're making a fool of yourself.
The claim that I made was: "In the last year the UK has been -
in many ways - more of a totalitarian regime than 1936 Germany. With there being lengthy periods with large portions of the population effectively being under house arrest."
So, you tell me. Let's compare 1936 Germany against 2020 / 2021 UK / England in the following areas:
Amount of money spent by the government as a percentage of GDP.
Percentage of the population employed by the government.
Percentage of the population in prison.
Restrictions on freedom of movement. Within the country. Entering or leaving the country.
Number of fines given by police officers without prior court action per year per head of population.
Number of laws specifiying legal behaviour.
Number of businesses forced to close down, under threat of fine if they continue to trade.
Number of businesses forced to severely curtail their trading.
Freedom to wear whatever clothing you want wherever you want.
Freedom to congregate.
Freedom to gather to peacefully protest.
Freedom to pursue leisure activities.
Freedom to photograph the outside of a prison without getting fined.
Freedom to deliver a parcel in comfortable clothing without getting fined.
Freedom to go for a walk 5 miles from your home without getting fined.
