It's interesting that a load of people who were claiming that covid control measures were a plot by governments to introduce permanent lockdowns and/or social credit systems have now seen that covid control measures demonstrably didn't lead to permanent lockdowns and/or social credit systems and have generally been rolled back as fast as they safely could (or faster), and that their response wasn't "huh, that was a load of bollocks" but "hey, insisting that things are plots by governments to introduce permanent lockdowns and/or social credit systems is fun, I should do more of it." I mean, that's a glib way of putting it, but it does seem like the conspiracist mindset in a nutshell.
