We need to forgive one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID.
(snip)
We have to put these fights aside and declare a pandemic amnesty. We can leave out the willful purveyors of actual misinformation while forgiving the hard calls that people had no choice but to make with imperfect knowledge. Los Angeles County closed its beaches in summer 2020. Ex post facto, this makes no more sense than my family’s masked hiking trips. But we need to learn from our mistakes and then let them go.

My parents were in good health and in their early 90s. Both spent the last year and a half of their life in lockdown, fear, and couldn’t keep going to church. They were convinced to get the vaccine. Dad was in the hospital 4 days after getting it with a brand new heart problem. Came home with C-diff. He and mom were dead in a few weeks.
No forgiveness… the Fauci mengele crew created this virus, and communist conspirators ensured the lockdown to steal the election. Forgiveness? That’s between you and Jesus. If I could figure out how, I’d blow out your lamp.
You still can’t visit loved ones here in the hospital unless you show proof of the shot. SF.
Ha! This is like my evil BIL - abuse people for years and when nobody wants to have anything to do with you, reach out and say, “Let’s let the past go, no apologies needed by anyone, let’s just forget about it and start again.” Didn’t work for him, won’t work for the covid killing cult.
“But we need to learn from our mistakes....”
Therein lies the rub. The Powers That Be have learned nothing, and they have not forgotten or forgiven the blow-back they have gotten from others. This is a matter of revenge on those who would DARE to question authority, and the trampling from the jackbooted thugs continues.
Justice is but a distant and poorly remembered virtue.
‘Fauci, the CDC and the evil regime are going to pay the ultimate price for their tyranny.’
no they won’t; they won’t face any scrutiny whatsoever...
Here’s a better plan - let’s remember who forced unwilling people to take dangerous, ineffective shots by threatening their ability to feed their families. Let’s remember those who were fired for refusing. Let’s remember the governors who killed thousands by forcing nursing homes to accept COVID patients. Let’s remember how powerful politicians openly ignored the restrictions they forced on the rest of us, and how they exempted BLM and Antifa rioters from the same restrictions. Let’s remember how the Left and GOPe conspired to circumvent election laws using COVID as an excuse. Let’s remember the endless lies and coverups by the FDA and the CDC. Let’s remember how dying patients were denied useful treatments in order to prop up the dangerous and ineffective vaccinations. Let’s remember how the president and other leaders told us that taking the shots would prevent you from getting COVID. Let’s remember the damage done to a generation of kids by forcing them to wear useless masks in schools. And finally, let’s remember how those who cited evidence that the virus was created in a Wuhan lab were demonized as conspiracy theorists.
You will have plenty of time to think about your 'mistakes' in bankruptcy court, and in prison.
May you repent this side of the grave.
They certainly found a way to destroy what Trump had built, didn’t they.
Imagine, however, if this had happened during the reign of Queen Hillary, as it was supposed to have. There would have been no energy independence, no record low unemployment, not even the vestiges of MAGA to provide for weathering this storm.
We would already be in the grip of the Great Reset were it not for Trump.
My mother in law was a widow with covid hit. She was already depressed. All her social outlets were shut down. She had a fall and ended up in the hospital and died there.
My wife and I never forgive any of these ghouls.
No - you don’t get to bury your violation of our rights because you’re in trouble NOW.
There are (as you like to say) consequences for your actions and it’s time you bore them.
And don't apologize. Every time I talk to someone it's sorry this, and, forgive me that, and, I'm not worthy.
Forgive and forget the sanctimonious left for what they did to the rest of us in the name of their Imbecile’s Crusade? Never. I want justice. I want retribution.
I agree with the sentiment about people demanding justice before we consider any kind of "amnesty."
And any amnesty must include the resignation of all government and business leaders who pushed this crap on their citizens/employees.
Those aren't masks, they're dog collars. Those people want to be slaves.
Nice Monty Python reference.

Perfectly stated.
Folks that exercised patience and prudent judgment were stigmatized, dehumanized, with the next step being euthanized.
I will not forgive. I will not forget.
