im just mesing about with the mass death stuff. its just a way to get back to a sense of politics and economics as personal injustice.
 
Better not be another fucking lockdown.

Time to rise up, this is ridiculous. Has the government been bought by Amazon and pharma. Shit is well fishy.

I mean, I don't give a shit personally, I love a good lockdown. Clean air, empty roads, nice. But the socialist in me spares a thought for people that have real jobs and lives.

Countries that locked down early are experiencing a resurgence of the first wave that is worse than the first peak (eg. Romania)...if our government relax their measures further and nothing happens, they would thereby admit that they locked down too late to affect the spread...which would mean that lockdown was pointless or at least disproportionate.

...more cowardice from the government...but really The Great Reset is the more plausible driver: they wouldn't go to the bother of putting together a plan like that without actioning it.

it'll be brilliant when the Great Reset happens and everyone who has spent years finger wagging at me for indulging conspiratorial thinking has to eat the biggest humble pie ever baked.

Obv it all feels a bit Naomi Klein Shock Doctrine-ish, but my take we're rather heading towards a society which has one thing in mind: maintaining a *healthy* population before all (even before "profit/growth"). The health metrics are getting calibrated and a new biopolitics awakens, hey we might even has to revive that guy Foucault again.

And I think there's a pretty good chance that this will lead to a far more conservative/collectivist culture in the west.

Danny L, Droid, Mr Tea, all of them with me in the chain gang going, oh, i guess we were wrong Luka, and me absolutely loving it, non stop gloating.
When this happens, admitting you were right will not be my biggest worry.
