They could have spent a trillion dollars shoring up hospitals, long-term healthcare facilities, and nursing homes. We would have saved way more lives and be well on our way to herd immunity, and all without destroying the economy.
But that's not how you initiate a global reset, is it?
Here's the infuriating part: marxists have been trying to radically alter our economy and culture for decades going on centuries. Now they want us to believe that this desire for a great reset spontaneously sprung up from an unexpected pandemic? Why would I ever believe that? Isn't it far more likely that they exaggerated and functionally created this crisis precisely because it would afford them an opportunity to implement literally all of their ideas? And unilaterally, too, no pesky elections or legislation required.
The vaccine passport is the point. It's a backdoor social credit system. They'll keep the virus panic rolling for a few more "strains", which will necessitate a system for tracking booster shots and 2nd/3rd/8th vaccines. Then you'll have "health experts" coming out of the woodwork to classify racism and sexism as health crises worthy of government intervention. Your vaccine passport will become a catch-all passport that rates your threat level based on the things you've said online, your affiliations, your gun ownership, your "criminal record" (white nationalist crimes only, of course), etc. Private businesses will then bar you from service based on your political beliefs, which will not be protected by the state.
They're right, though. The problem is they won't connect the dots and realize that this truth means the vaccine was pointless.
My tact lately has been to ask people why it's okay to take down your mask for eating and drinking. If this were truly a life-threatening virus worthy of pandemic status and unprecedented lockdowns, wouldn't they be afraid to take down their masks for any reason? What about people with medical exceptions being permitted to wear no mask at all? If this were a legitimately lethal virus, we would make no exceptions.
People usually respond by saying it would be ridiculous to expect us not to eat or drink in public or to restrict vulnerable people from accessing society by forcing them to wear masks. More ridiculous than locking down every business for months? More ridiculous than shutting down churches? But less ridiculous than permitting people to mass gather for protests, right? Only left-wing protests, though, yes?
I've lost every scrap of respect I once had for most of the people in my life. They refuse to acknowledge the doublethink that rules their lives. In their day to day activity, the virus is a complete afterthought; they "forget their mask", the pull it down to eat/drink, they stand right next to each other and chat. Then they turn around and treat the virus like an existential threat to the species - but only if doing so is culturally or politically expedient.
Not enough people are talking about the upside of covid-19. Deaths from heart disease and cancer are way down, and flu deaths are virtually non-existent. I wish every lethal pandemic could be so beneficial.
Libertarians believe a rudderless ship will never crash into the rocks. It's actually idiotic.
Civil rights violation. Sue.
Nope. It's actually systematic racism, also known as actual racism. "Systemic racism" is like "the patriarchy" - nebulous, unfalsifiable, bullshit.
It's a deliberate inversion, just like everything they do. A young attractive woman dressing sexy for the benefit of men is patriarchal oppression, but grandma showing off the unwanted goods is empowering and beautiful.
This is postmodernism in medicine. You can't doubt someone's lived experiences, and that includes their self-diagnosis of non-existent conditions that just so happen to call for frequent extended bed rest and a lifetime supply of painkillers.
But hey, the asshole with the stethoscope is no less corrupt. He's getting paid thousands of dollars by the government to diagnose you with covid-19, and then he's getting paid thousands more by big pharma to prescribe you those painkillers you so desperately want.
The worst part of it all: everybody involved in this sham we call healthcare imagines themselves to be good people doing the right thing.
Doesn't keto call for like 80% of your calories to come from healthy fats like fish, avocado, and coconut? If you're pounding steak and peanut butter, I'm pretty sure that's not really keto lol
drinking just high fructose corn syrup
This is an outdated hypothetical. They've just recently discovered that corn syrup is actually poison. It fucks your liver and increases fat generation.
You think this is bad? Wait until scotus issues a ruling prohibiting lower courts from filing injunctions against a president's executive orders. We had four years of some random robed retard in Hawaii unilaterally blocking orders issued by "the highest office in the land", and scotus did nothing to curtail the flagrant abuse. How much you wanna bet they take concrete steps to end this practice the moment a conservative judge rules some gun control EO unconstitutional?
Here's the thing, though: if we are in the middle of a deadly pandemic, then it should be a problem when people remove their masks for any reason. Yes, this stewardess applied the official rules incorrectly, but the official rules don't make logical sense. The truth is that all of the little "exceptions" to these mask mandates only highlight how unnecessary and performative they are. It's only okay to take off your mask to eat because there isn't a deadly virus threatening to kill us all. It's just a bad flu. But the NPCs struggle to process this doublethink, and I can't say I blame them. How can CNN and MSNBC disseminate nonstop fear porn for 12+ months and then turn around and say it's okay to take off your mask for food and water? If there were a legitimately deadly pathogen in the air, no one would drop their mask to grab a bite.
I keep saying this: leftists entered "we will do whatever we want because you don't have the will to stop us" mode in 2016. They have broken laws nonstop for four years because they believe we won't shoot them. So far, they've been right.
If the president was confirmed via illegitimate and fraudulent results, the states can demand impeachment and replacement backed by secession. Red states should not suffer four years of illegitimate rule just because the election was properly stolen.
We dropped the ball when we allowed Soros to buy DAs, AGs, prosecutors, and judges all over the country. These commies won't even keep pedos and killers in prison. They sure as shit aren't going to prevent their political allies from stealing elections.
The courts have already decided that blue states can conduct their elections as fraudulently as they like, and red states will have to abide by those results. The only answer is dissolution.
They straight up shut down counting, sent the poll watchers home, and stuffed the ballot boxes with untraceable mail-in votes in the middle of the night. It happened live in TV. Leftists know it, too. They just don't care.
It never made sense that so many elections were so close. Now we know they weren't.
Who fucking cares? The only states that need these laws will never pass them, and scotus already said they won't mediate disputes between the states. So Democrats in blue and purple states can flagrantly ignore their own election laws to generate wildly fraudulent results, and scotus has already ruled that red states have to abide by those illegal and fraudulent results because "no standing" - as if being forced to live under the authority of an illegally and fraudulently elected president somehow does not give you standing.
Tldr: no one cares, you retarded GOP dipshits. You didn't fight for us or Trump because you're lying faggots, and now America is screwed.
We are rapidly approaching a time when citizens will begin to take the law into their own hands. That's what happens when the state abdicates its duty to deliver justice for those wronged by criminals. And when the state cracks down on the vigilante in defense of the criminal, we are well on our way to collapse.
A simple thought experiment for anyone who retardedly believes the primary purpose of prison is rehabilitation and not retribution:
Imagine the person you love most in the world is brutally tortured and murdered for no reason.
Now imagine that the perpetrator of this horrific crime has been arrested and sent to the most advanced prison in history. This prison can completely rehabilitate anyone, absolutely anyone, in just a single day. 24 hours is all it takes, and that killer is a new man. The day after your loved ones is brutally tortured and murdered, the killer is released from prison 100% rehabilitated, ready to become a productive member of society, guaranteed never to harm another soul.
You're cool with that, right? You're life has been destroyed, but the person responsible is cured and ready to live his best life going forward. He'll probably be happy as a clam for the rest of his days. Your soul mate suffered unimaginable torment before being snuffed out of existence forever, and you get to live with that pain until you die, but homeboy is gonna get a job, settle down with a family, and pay taxes for the next 40 years. You're on board with that, right?
The only people who are on board with such a monstrous system are the ones who value the system itself over the people who comprise it.
So tell me again how the government is holding my loved ones hostage from me unless I take their experimental non-vaccine and sign up for their backdoor social credit score system?
We are locked in a cage with tyrants and emotional toddlers.
