What the Lockdown Leviathans Don’t Get
American Greatness ^ | December 24, 2020 | Tal Bachman

....Don’t like it? Don’t worry, said the experts: If you’re feeling a mite lonely after nine months of house arrest in Papillon-like solitary confinement, just throw a rollicking Christmas “social” event in which you stare, all alone, at a computer screen on a Zoom call, as the most ruthless, repressive, imperialist regime on earth monitors everything you say, and then instantly disables your account if you dare to criticize it. (Soon, no doubt, it won’t only be the Chinese government doing the monitoring and disabling, but our own—supposing it hasn’t merged with the CCP by then).

House arrest for nine months, careers and dreams imploding all around you, relieved only by the odd Zoom call, isn’t exactly my idea of fun—or anyone else’s. Yet you’d never guess that listening to anyone with political power this year (aside from the few remaining non-useless Republicans).

For months, these strange, power-mad robots have evinced zero indication they have any clue what it might feel like to be an actual human (with mouths to feed) suddenly placed under house arrest, forbidden from earning a living, stopped from pursuing activities which support his sense of identity, cut off from most (or all) social contact, fed reams of misinformation he knows is misinformation, and severed from a huge source of meaning in human life—namely, culture.

I’m not here arguing against the measures themselves (I will some other time). I am pointing out the inhuman indifference shown by the Lockdown Leviathans to the psychological, emotional, spiritual, and familial costs those measures have imposed, and continue to impose, upon their suffering subjects.

There is simply no sign they care....

Oh, but they do care.

They care about completely destroying human spirit and will to survive because they are just that evil.

Either that or we do not know their true motivation is. What we do know is that they are not doing this to safeguard their citizens. That, for sure, is not the motivation at play here.

“They care about completely destroying human spirit and will to survive because they are just that evil.”

I believe the odds are that you are right.

26 Dec: Breitbart: German Economist Says ‘Great Reset Will Cause a Crash Worse than 1930s’
by James Delingpole
Dr Antony Mueller, Professor of Economics at the Federal University of Sergipe in Brazil, says that the Chinese coronavirus ‘pandemic’ is being used as cover by the globalist elite to destroy small businesses and hasten a new world order based on “expertocracy, climate green religion, and brutal depopulation”.
This globalist elite — inspired by the World Economic Forum’s ‘Build Back Better’ campaign for a ‘Fourth Industrial Revolution’ and by the United Nations’ Agenda 2030 — are killing Main Street, together with thousands of jobs, by keeping economies across the Western World in near-permanent lockdown...

While Mueller says the prognosis is bleak, his disastrous scenario may not come to fruition if Western economies see sense.
The best immediate hope, he says, would have been if Donald Trump got re-elected.
“This will end the lockdowns. There will be a strong, quick recovery. And the Europeans will follow.”...

Dear Former Public Employee:

In the interest of equality, it’s your turn to go without income.

Most of these @ssholes would win in a landslide if they ran for re-election tomorrow. That tells me they govern in places where there isn’t much human spirit left to kill.

Looking on the bright side: if they convince you to commit suicide, it saves them the trouble of murdering you later.

The claim is that we are in a public health emergency. This public health emergency is due to a virus which has well over a 99% survival rate. Some people get this virus and don’t even know they had it. The vast majority who get it do not need to be hospitalized.

The powers that be have acted as if this virus the return of the bubonic plague or smallpox.

At a bare minimum, no government employees should get a paycheck when lockdown is in effect.

The Qtards say that it’s all a big Illuminati Satanic
plot with tunnels and Adrenochromes and secret signals
and dirty little Haitian kids.

And blogs, let’s not forget them.

I was in downtown Detroit 12/23 or 12/24 and have never seen so many forlorn, hopeless looking citizens with signs asking for help at stop lights. Many said, “family to feed, please help. god bless.” It was chilly out. They were bundled up in raggedy looking clothes. It was very depressing, disturbing.

Sounds like a good assignment for an independent reporter to give themselves: Go to a downtown area, preferably one they have covered before and is part of their “beat,” so to speak, and interview people — both the people who never had to ask for help like this before and people who still work downtown who can speak to the changes they have seen over the past 9 months.

I did talk to 2 of them. They both mentioned the lockdown lunatic governor of our state. Next time I go down, I’m thinking of taking a go pro or some other device as long as the pitiful person agrees to be recorded.

(I was just looking at them online B4 I read this thread)

WRONG, most Anons believe that there is a group of compromised people in all manner of control. The source of the comp could be money, pedo, or other “strange” beliefs or ways that they can be or are manipulated.

What I hear from them is mostly that the worst thing is death. I would argue that it’s actually depression. Because when you’re depressed you don’t think clearly and you’re lonely even with other people inside your own household. Second problem is that if you’re not a white collar worker or government employee, you don’t have as much of an option to stay at home. You go elsewhere to the site of you’re a plumber, HVAC, Electrician, etc.

They argue that without heavy mandates, it would be like the plague.
