My list of reasons for why I’m against the lockdown keeps getting bigger and bigger. You can read my current list here: Here are 80 reasons why I’m against the COVID-19 lockdowns
Here’s one that I’ll be adding to my list the next time I update it. This is from early April, but I just found out about it.
The Guardian reported:
New Zealand health minister demoted after beach visit broke lockdown rules
David Clark called himself an ‘idiot’ for driving his family 20km to the beach on the first weekend of the national stay-at-home measures
As is so often the case, with many such examples on my list: lockdowns for thee, but not for me.
You know what’s truly dangerous? Jumping into a hot, molten pool of glowing orange lava at an active volcano.
You want to know how I know that such a thing truly dangerous? Because the people who tell us not to do it always follow the same advice that they expect everyone else to follow.
But with lockdowns, time and time and time again, that is not the case.
Silly. People of his station aren’t bound by rules for peasants.
It’s not a scam. It’s REAL. People have died. The reporting is what’s a scam.
It’s a planned crisis, used by the left to create havoc and confusion, while eliminating people.
We still need to laugh and not let the murderers win.

Rules for thee, but not for me.
Lockdowns are a political scam by the democrats to destroy the economy and then use it as a politically rally cry for the November elections.
Democrats are your enemy, folks. They care only for power and not about your well being.

The lockdown is not a scam.
The lockdown brought the reproduction number down from about 2.5 to just barely below 1. Then, on the very day that USA reproduction number went below 1, the CDC changed the lockdown guidelines and started too send infected essential workers back to work. The purpose of these “studies” is to get you to go outside, get infected, and die.
With reproduction number now again above 1 due to reopening, you can clearly see that when we had lockdown, the pandemic was in retreat - it was decaying and dieing out. But now with it above 1, it is growing and will accelerate.

I keep hearing the prediction, but I keep seeing the opposite.
In GA Ossoff, John Lewis, Sarah Amico and other Democrats are running primary campaign ads where they are not wearing masks, they are shoulder to shoulder in crowds of voters.... yet they attack Republicans for practicing voluntary social distancing. The attack Republicans for opposing mandatory orders.
