Don't be daft. Happens all the time and it should. If we found out tomorrow that an asteroid was going was going to hit earth and destroy most life on earth and we have the technology to stop it. There will be a small percentage of people who believe it's gods will and we shouldn't intervene. Should we not force on them the solution, tell me no.

All genocides started with similar words.
Exactly. And, as previously stated, this is why your analogy doesn't apply and it is also why you will never get people who don't agree with you to change sides, unless you can prove it to them and as we discussed before, there are good people on both sides with plenty of facts and objective data. I don't ignore any of it and I also do not assume one side is right simply because newspapers and TV tell me I should do so... There was a famous brazilian singer called Raul Seixas. He was a genius. He had one song in which he sang: "Eu não preciso ler jornais, mentir sozinho eu sou capaz..."
This translates to: "I don't need to read newspapers, I am capable of lying all by myself"(Lie here in the sense of "tell lies" and not "lie down").I was about to make a similar commentary... But I'll just give yours my "like" instead...
Yes 100 genocides started with those words, and 100 million issues of our daily life start with it too. So, your genocide comment is nonsense.
If you lived in a city you would be enjoying public transportation with the metro each day, the metro that was build by forcing the sale of property of a very few for the greater good of millions. That is how it has worked forever. The gas you fill into your tank originally was pumped through pipelines that were laid in ground that the government forced via eminent domain to be sold for the greater good of many. You are factually incorrect in blowing this up as its something that makes absolute sense, most everyone understands it and finds it reasonable.

vaccinations
Re-education camps.
Jewish resettlement?
Point is where do you draw the line and who exactly is allowed to define said line? Popular vote? Some elected official?
At what point does a person’s individual rights cease to exist? You’re naively treading on very slippery grounds.

It is not a slippery slope at all, but to answer you, it should be defined by law code and precedent for judges. Without facilities like eminent domain no modern society would be able to function. A bunch of criminals would buy certain key parcels of land, for example, and each and every project would die before it even began.
