This meme seems reductive. Mandatory protection would also cover a single-payer health system.
There's a difference between protesting poor regulation of mandatory services (ie healthcare) vs a libertarian, "It's my right to die in a car crash because I don't want to wear a seatbelt"
Oh, you didn't get it? The problem is not that it's mandatory: it's that it's mandatory and you get denied anyway. Stop equivocating.
Are we seeing the same thing? Is the meme referencing denial in the room with us right now?
It's right here. But you wouldn't be able to notice it if you tried. ;)
