1/"The political difficulties implicit in pulling the plug on extravagant habits of energy, of course, preclude any chance that such policies will be deliberately pursued on a large scale in our lifetimes".
John Michael Greer, The Ecotechnic Future, p.172/3
2/ translation: nobody will vote, knowingly, for what might appear at first glance like a more difficult or less prosperous life or a decline in social status (although not all will be affected equally, e.g., public sector v SME owners)
Which is why you weren't consulted.
3/ Which is why the device used was a mild-to-moderately severe (except in those susceptible due to pre-existing comorbidities) infectious respiratory pathogen. Fear is the sine qua non of control, from the individual to the population level.

1/ yup, sounds more like a prison ship than a cruise ship. Could this, however, be a cover story to disincentivize customers to partake in cruises?
If we're talking about #sustainability, cruise ships are perhaps the epitome of #PeakConsumption.
2/ elites know this (but will keep their mega yachts, e.g., fraseryachts.com/en/yachts-for-…) but for Middle Class Joe & Jane punter?
Anybody with sense can see what the restrictions are?
A disincentive to travel & consumption.
Remember these types of headlines from recent years? (below)

well, you could a Documentary costing millions made by RTE/BBC/ZDF/CNN etc etc, or you could watch a video made by a guy in his car @BeyondRoom313 absolutely nailing it.

After a year where I've watched (so-called) Irish "Professors" (Medieval - they profess to know) coming on TV & basically-& there's no kind way to put it-telling bare-faced lies & untruths; ppl who are elevated in our society, put in positions of public trust, & betray that trust
why do I say this?
Yes, I have a PhD (Permanent Head Damage), which while though not in any 'Health Science' is in Biological/Biochemical Sciences, so can pick up/absorb large amts of data in real time. Grasp basic concepts/know them already
I also know how #PCR works

"I believe at a society level, a whole series of social contracts are about to be revoked & re-written". This was 2015.

I guess this may include various 'Constitutions'?

Why are MSM not alone not telling truth (considered too 'fringe') but avoiding it?

now the choice may be btwn "social control" (lockdown) vs hyperinflation.
In sustainability "slowing societal metabolism" is understood (Ecological Economics).
Mainstream economists call this concept "the velocity of money".
Record QE + production⬇️*(LDs)
*nytimes.com/2020/04/11/bus…
= hyperinflation.
For ppl's lived experience, this translates as a "New Normal" (ie., reduced living stds; nothing to do with a virus, although LDs have prolonged it beyond its trajectory).
