I see what you're saying, though unless Trump puts his foot down after the election and puts a definitive end to it, they're going to keep pushing out these "third, fourth, fifth waves", more fear porn of rising cases again and people getting sick. They're going to merge that with fear porn that the seasonal flu is back and it merged with covid somehow and mutated and now it's a super flu. When he wins reelection he HAS to do something to the governors and make them stop this ride.
I understand why you feel that way, but there is no "finishing" it. Not to be a quote-nerd, but Reagan said that "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction". This is a battle that will NEVER end. There are lulls, but it never stops. The fight between liberty and authoritarianism has been a constant battle since before the American expermiment started. Look no further than Alexander Hamilton who was in favor of a "President for life". We had no sooner thrown off one despot than one of our founders was trying to institute another.
These people, call them marxists, communists, etc are at their heart, desirous to be serfs. They're not new, they're not unique, and they won't go away. We just have to continue to fight just as hard.
Understood, but this is exhausting and demoralizing to even leave the house. We have to group up. Isolationism is making it seem like each of us is battling the "New World" alone.

I think that was the point :/
But on the flip side we have places like this to convene which is encouraging. Imagine this happening before the digital age
