Revolver News just showcased how a new study out of Canada has confirmed our study from last summer finding that the long-term mortality impact of lockdowns will drastically exceed any lives saved from prevented coronavirus deaths.
But it’s not just Revolver and a few academics who are souring on lockdowns. Like clockwork, the most famous lockdown enforcers on the left are turning against them as well, just in time for Joe Biden’s inauguration. The timing is so blatant, so cynical, that it seems like a deliberate ritual to humiliate a servile public.
For months, New York governor Andrew Cuomo has ruled like a tyrant over the people of New York. Religious believers holding drive-in church services were threatened with huge fines, or even arrest. Thousands of restaurants and other businesses failed as Cuomo kept the state in strict lockdown mode deep into the summer.
Yet now, Cuomo is making a mockery of his earlier authoritarianism. Last week, the governor announced that the state must move rapidly ahead with reopening, and can’t even afford to wait for the new coronavirus vaccine to be more widely distributed.
We simply cannot stay closed until the vaccine hits critical mass. The cost is too high. We will have nothing left to open. We must reopen the economy, but we must do it smartly and safely.#SOTS2021

Revolver will of course be very glad to see New York reopened, and some small measure of liberty restored to the state’s suffering citizens. But at the same time, Cuomo’s total reversal of attitude is glaring. Coronavirus is not dying out in the state of New York. In fact, the state hit a new record high for cases just three days before Cuomo’s tweet

You should just start a “Sorry, our Bad!” thread. I’m sure it will have lots of new material every day.
Before the election the teacher unions here were outraged at Abbott for suggesting schools should open last year But with the help of the media here constantly banging the drum of people dying in huge numbers of the corona here in our city he had no choice but to listen to the unions and what they wanted! At every turn they obstructed that order with the help of the media with their daily updated death counts...so they kept moving the date.. What started out to be postponement for a week turn to two weeks 3 months six months eventually turning into almost a year. But low and behold a miracle has happened Messiah Beijing cheating Joe cured the corona ..Now all is good and everything can go back to normal! Even the media has quit reporting their hair on fire death count. I loath the mediavomits along with the DC swamp , China and everyone that line up to literally kill off Trumps re-election!! Trump is still president in my records because Of the unfair fraudulent election and cheating that blatantly took place before our very own freaking eyes! They will never make me accept cheating Joe as my president! EFFIN NEVER!!!!!!
Hey, a lot of those assholes STILL are buying into it. Pathetic.
Covid is not a hoax.
Some of the response to it was , and was to hurt Trump.
I know 4 people who were diagnosed last week and had to be hospitalized .
However 2 important things that I feel trunks campaign didn’t communicate well.
1) the economy didn’t crater. That is an incredible feat that Trump made happen .
It very well could have been 1929.
2) We had a vaccine in 10 freaking months !! That’s unheard of. And Trump made it happen
Our obesely fat and stupid Governor, JB Prickster here in Hellinois is following Cuomo’s playbook to a T.
