The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) made a mockery of the term "civil liberty" last week when they published a piece in the New York Times where they announced:

Far from compromising them, vaccine mandates actually further civil liberties. They protect the most vulnerable, people with disabilities and fragile immune systems, children too young to be vaccinated, and communities of color hit hard by the disease. (Source.)

Paul Joseph Watson from Summit News wrote:

The ACLU has published an article in the New York Times followed up by a tweet which asserts that the government forcing people to take vaccines is a victory for civil liberties.

No, this isn't out of the Babylon Bee.

A New York Times opinion piece was written by ACLU staffers which further amplified claims that the government forcing people to take a vaccine under threat of them losing their jobs, social lives and potentially in the future the right to buy and sell was actually a boon for civil liberties.

What's next? Maybe the ACLU will call for the government to forcibly incarcerate Americans for their controversial political opinions because it might 'prevent harm'.

Respondents on Twitter were swift to ridicule the organization's absurd hypocrisy.
