Many lockdowns were issued by politicians who were not communist dictators. They issued those lockdowns because they felt they had to be seen “doing something” to stem the virus. Same for masking mandates. In addition, many, many people were demanding these politicians “do something”.
I do agree they did more harm than good but I do understand the pressure these politicians were under.
‘In addition, many, many people were demanding these politicians “do something”.’
yep, exactly; many people demanded that, because they are too stupid and lazy to figure out how to provide for their own safety...
as an example of this stupidity; I saw an older woman at the gym with two masks on her face, and she assured me she could breathe just fine...”it’s a death sentence for me if I get it,” she said. I replied “if you’re not already sick, you won’t die from it...” she huffed off, saying “I don’t want to argue about it...”
I guess she’d rather hear that she’s going to die rather than she won’t...
‘I do agree they did more harm than good but I do understand the pressure these politicians were under.’
when I see the glow on Gretchen Whitmer’s face when she announces another restriction, or the snarky smirk Tom Wolf adopts for his press conferences, I am certain the ‘pressure’ was welcomed with eyes and arms wide open...
