When this doesn’t work, will they acknowledge it or double down on stupidity?
It is not stupidity, on the surface it seems so. It is about control.
All these restrictions worldwide have nothing to do with the virus and everything to do with government bureaucrats being able to tell you what medicine you must take, whether you can go to worship services and how many people can go, if you can open your business, where you can travel, track your movement and who you associate with (contact tracing), whether you must show your papers, if you are allowed to eat out, etc.
Then it will be required to carry a smart phone at all times so you can be traced. The vaccine passports will begin with your first covid vaccination, then your first, second, tenth booster shots, then your medical history, next your social credit score, etc.
None of this is about that little virus, never has been. Are we to believe the elites who can go about maskless really care about the little people of flyover country?
