Any thinking person knew by March 2020 that the lockdowns were completely BS. All the statistical trends were in place by that point.

Didn’t have to wait for the stats.

As soon as you knew it was not contained, there was no containing it.

You’d need to have everyone in a level 5 containment facility.

Even just staying home wouldn’t work because most people don’t have two weeks of food sitting around so they have to go to the store...

The lockdowns were about one thing….beating Trump.

It was also a gigantic money grab for special interests and various state and local governments. I doubt any of it actually went to assist the people most at risk.

I think it was wider than that. Globalists were involved.

The sort of people who measure their wealth by its exclusivity.

The sort of people who take no pleasure in owning a thing if it gets mass-produced and available to the "lowers".

The sort of people who could pick out a perfectly good new car like I can pick out a pack of socks, and sniff contemptuously at it, and go off to custom order something hand-made in Italy because no-one else, even a similarly rich "friend" (read: rival, competitor in the game of what they regard as life), can have one exactly like it.

This is not envy on my part.

It is pity.

And boy, do they hate that too.

So of course they had to wreck the global economy, especially those Americans with their "freedumb".

Yup.

And CoupFlu has NEVER been about public health anywhere on the planet.

The 2020 election was just one part of a much larger agenda.

“Lockdowns” were just one of the several ways Liberals constructed their plan to steal the election

The fact that they were talking about and planning for the pandemic several years before it happened, coupled with banning medications that were effective, along with trying desperately to mandate questionable vaccines, and throw in the severe controls of day to day life, one would logically conclude that this was orchestrated by power hungry lunatics with an insatiable desire to rule the world.

Not just DJTrump. The purpose was to destroy middle class. Lockdowns preferentially killed small businesses. Such are usually led (& financed) by conservatives — people who know how to manage risk.
Killing these jobs improved odds of the commie trash creating a dependent class — peasants. Keep it up and peasants become slaves.
The Decocratic party is the party of slavery. All of them, no exceptions, pine for the times when their ancestors actually controlled other humans without limit. That is their goal. Just like any other form of commie BS.
