I’ve been saying this from the start. The whole thing has been a case of media-fueled public hysteria.

I honestly fear for the survival of FreeRepublic ... because a lot of the so-called “champions of freedom and liberty” here have turned out to be nanny-state frauds.

After all we have been through with the media 1/2 of the people on this site were absolutely hysterical just SHAMEFUL!! 9 states with no lockdown and ALL have extremely low numbers, I am in CA. and population is 40 million 347 deaths, these bastards WON bringing the economy to its knees and many on this site were part of that!!!

I think a lot of us tried to downplay the hysteria, but the
panic even here was orbital.

Look, I think what is taking place is bad, but it’s
essentially an acolyte of the seasonal flu.

Why do I say that? I say that because we take millions of
infections, hundreds of thousands of hospitalizations in
stride when it’s the flu.

When it’s Covid-19, we count every single case, post every
single hysterical article we can find, and play act that
every single bad story is ‘the only story’.

Even Conservatives fall for this nonsense. And then on top
of that you have to deal with the media, the screw off
Leftists, and the idiots in power that say just anything
they want off the top of their head, with no rhyme or reason
to it.

That Fauci is an absolute ignorant despicable man.

Hey says the most incredible things, and nobody calls him on
it.

Example: We can’t go back to normal until there is a vaccine
against this.

Does this guy know that HIV came about in the 1980s, and
there is no vaccine today?

That guy is a skid mark on our nations honor.

I was convinced that Monicagate would drive BJC from office, because the public would demand it. "The public" really dropped in my estimation as a result.

As you noted, this crisis has the same result.

Agree wholeheartedly AC. People that claim to be conservatives, and, more importantly, Christians, are nothing more than posers. Wallowing in fear and deception. Claiming the truth of government agencies and people (ie CDC, WHO, Birx, Fauci, etc) while denying the truth of God.

Thanks for the post of the decade. I have been saying the same thing. It was frightening to witness the number of freepers who fell for this scam then excoriated anybody who tried to present rational thought. I have been taking names and soon the mocking will begin. 😆
