Making a requirement to be vaccinated in order to fly, enter a restaurant, attend a concert, etc., is not "forcing" someone to get vaccinated. It is giving them a choice - to be part of a healthy society, or to be a nomad. There is a choice there. In my own house I can walk around naked, smoke all day, and be drunk as a skunk. No one can take that freedom away from me. But I can't walk the streets naked, smoke in a restaurant, or drive drunk - those are requirements that society has agreed upon as being for the greater good.
So there is a choice for people who don't want to get vaccinated. Those people just want to have their cake and eat it too - they want the "freedom" to not take it, but be a safety hazard to the rest of society in the process. As the last month or so has shown us, the anti-vaxxers are in the distinct minority, the majority are getting sick of having their freedom impacted by the decisions of anti-vaxxers, and mandates are the logical next step.
