This was a democide by the government, who crushed dissent, and sought to compel people into forced medical experimentation, or in some cases simply death (see the fatality rate of ventilators + remdesivir).
They don't just think the rules don't apply to them, this particular guy spells it out that because he makes the rules, he felt in control, so it wasn't bad. He intentionally scared you, because he could. He intentionally oppressed you, because he could. He didn't enforce rules against himself, because he could.
He asserted he did what he did because MIGHT MAKES RIGHT.
He excuses his lies with an appeal to power alone. This is what validated mass murder.
You're completely right.
