One year into this foolishness and I'm yet to see any CONCLUSIVE evidence that masks OR lockdowns actually 'saved' lives...
I can see that the latter ruined hundreds of millions though.
They want everyone to keep playing this stupid game forever.
The emperor has no clothes.
I'm aggressively anti-lockdown and have been from day one.
But it's not even clear they did what it was CLAIMED they were intended to. People cherry pick and do mental gymnastics.
No one wants to admit this. Too much sunk cost and cognitive dissonance.
People like to suggest that if you don't support lockdowns, then you 'don't care about human life'.
This is completely backwards.
IF lockdowns were highly effective AND the ONLY option (both false) then it would have SOME merit.
But it doesn't. Pure emotional blackmail.
Once the pandemic response got highly politicised, it was a wrap.
Now you can predict most people's political views PURELY based on their view on masks. Lol.
That makes it obvious how tribal it became from early. It's social, virtue, and tribal signaling, not science.
If masks and/or lockdowns were effective, the data would be CLEAR by now.
It wouldn't be up for debate, regardless of whether one supports or opposes the mandates.
Fact is, the correlation is not clear. There is now state by state, country by country data.
This reality is very painful for millions of people to accept.
That much of this was futile at best, or MORE destructive at worst.
But that doesn't mean the herd should keep running off the cliff to 'save face'.
