How an uncanny thing called covid destroyed our lives

The years of living with increasingly oppressive Covid restrictions and mandates is a tale of many villains complicit in tyranny and a few heroes of resistance. It’s a story of venal, incompetent politicians and brutish police – thugs in uniform – acting at the behest of power-drunk apparatchiks.

Medically idiotic, economically ruinous, socially disruptive and embittering, culturally dystopian, politically despotic: what was there to like in the Covid era?
[i]
Billions, if you were Big Pharma.

Unchecked power, if you were Big State.

Power over the whole population of a state and fame with extended daily TV appearances on all channels, if you were a chief medical officer.

More money and power over the world’s governments and people for the WHO.

Template for action for climate zealots.

Dreamtime for cops given free rein to indulge their inner bully.[/i]

But anguished despair, if you were a caring, concerned citizen who loves individual freedom and autonomy.

[b]But if you think it was all justified and good, then you have been taken in hook, line and sinker.[/b]

But nothing in your rant about the sheer number of deaths.
Nothing about grieving families watching their loved ones die over zoom.
Nothing about the funerals attended by just a handful of people who couldn't even hug each other for comfort because of restrictive rules

@Picklebobble2 Really?

"Medically idiotic, economically ruinous, socially disruptive and embittering, culturally dystopian, politically despotic"

That just about covers it, no?

@WalterF None of those things are [b] PERSONAL ![/b]
Just JUNK from Politicians with no clue what else to do

@WalterF go live on an island by yourself and you can do as you wish, until then show some compassion for others.

@ilikeitlikethat23 ?? Where is the absence of compassion?

@WalterF without the vacine you may become a carrier on the disease, I know folks in their 30's who are completly disabled by long covid. Tell them it isn't real, those who were most at risk by having preexisting conditions that were exaggerated by covid needed to be protected. But those citizens that do not trust vacines are incubators for disease, polio is on the rise due to pockets of the unvacinated that allow the disease to progress. This is something that was a non factor due to mass inoculations.

@ilikeitlikethat23 Frankly, only an idiot would believe someone could transmit a disease they haven't got.

Many people have suffered from this weird "pandemic," created through Fauci's "gain of function" research. Many more have suffered through the forced untrialled gene therapy inkected into billions of trusting people.

I have compassion for all of these.

I have no compassion, only contempt, for those WHO MADE IT HAPPEN.
