Tomi Lahren is latest to compare pandemic rules to Nazism in critiquing flight attendants' mask

enforcements

Fox News commentator Tomi Lahren on Thursday joined a growing number of right-wing pundits and politicians comparing covid-19 restrictions to Nazism.

Lahren took issue with some flight attendants' enforcement of federal mask mandates on airplanes during a segment on the show "Outnumbered."

"There are so many good flight attendants out there, but there are some flight attendants out there that take their job as the mask police to extremes, becoming almost Nazis of the air," Lahren, a host on the Fox Nation subscription service, said. "And it's ridiculous."

None of the other four panelists on the segment responded to the Nazi comparison, which drew criticism on social media, where a clip showing her comments was viewed more than half a million times.

other operating room personnel ALWAYS wear masks and for the same reason the rest of us do,
to protect against spreading or being exposed to infection. I'll be so happy when I hear it's open
season on jailing all these Reich-Wing pundits and politicians.

Much of Trump and the GOP base are out and out racist fascist un-American assholes as were the
thugs who stormed the US Capitol on 1/6/21. In the fall of 2018 Trump came to Lebanon, OH
and spoke the praises of Robert E Lee and that was no mistake because that area of OH is the
home to Klan in OH and many of the people who were arrested for the White Riot in Charlottesville,
VA were from that area or had spent time in that area.

If you're on a flight and not wearing a mask, it's off to the death chamber with you.

Oh wait; that's not right. They give you the chance to put on a mask (even offering you one if you don't have one), and if you still refuse, they take you off the flight. Huh. That's not like the Nazis at all. is she blabbering about?
