I have a better hint: we did not have females in positions of government power.
History and facts are "urrmurrrgurrrd so misogynistic"
The fear and panic leading to the lockdown is led by the female element of govt. Something that 1918 and 1958 did not have.

The article is fine for what it is, but sometimes you just have to cut to the chase and address the elephant in the room and take the PC backlash.
America spent $4.1 trillion fighting WW2 (today's dollars).
We've already spent $6 trillion on COVID.
Apparently COVID is a more difficult enemy than Hitler. Total insanity.
