I hope you won't use this argument against lockdown, because lockdown is absolutely necessary when there's an epidemic, and it's not forever, it's just temporary and Italy, France, etc have a lot of freedom yet they did have a lockdown.

I am not against a lockdown during an epidemic. What I am trying to highlight is that we need to be aware that these times can not be used as an unfair advantage by people in power to enforce agendas that would otherwise face with people's disagreement.
