    Jokes on them, COVID-19 still exists. So do masks.

    Funny thing about that. Viruses don't care if you do or do not talk about them. Good luck with your denialism. Did you know that practically every respiratory infection has some form of post acute syndrome?

    I used to wear masks and I even got a booster shot. It's not like I don't believe the virus is dangerous.

    At the end of the day, though, the lockdown's effect on the world was much bigger than the virus'. Everyone has had COVID a few times by now and the world has moved on... But a lot of people got unemployed and everything got more expensive. Now everyone's quality of life is still down years later.

    The extreme measures during COVID were unnecessary and just made it worse and more difficult to contain, if they weren't such idiots they could have told people to wear masks for additional safety to protect themselves from infection but they aren't mandatory, it's simple psychology, give people a choice and they'll accept it more easily, however they choose the dystopian approach and people fought back, escalating an already difficult situation.

    No.

    People are stupid and will mostly choose badly, especially the Fox News crowd. Not to say it deserves a beating but what you are saying is flat wrong.

    Yet we've all stopped wearing masks and most people don't get booster shots anymore. So maybe it doesn't actually matter much to society if a few more people die, as horrible a thought as that is.

    Could've just left everything unrestricted and things would've just sorted themselves out mostly the same

    Because everything takes at least that long in France.

    Conservatism should be a disqualifier for any position of authority in any developed country.

    If the trial had started sooner liberals would have been calling this man racist names while showing their love for big pharma, authoritarianism and support for law enforcement; at a time when it was politically harmful for them to allow such hypocrisy.

    If you had your way, Donald Trump would be godking until his death at which point we would resurrect Hitler to hand him the reins. Fake leftists need to go away. The blue wave happened and you're very mad about it, that's clear. The rest of us can put pressure on Democrats with letters and phone calls and actually do something besides sit on the Internet trying to mentally destroy hope in the types of people who want change.

    I implore everyone to call out these kinds of comments and then block the users making them. I for one am absolutely fucking sick to death of their attempts to create despair and misery. They clearly intend to do harm to society with their bullshit. Take note of how 95% of commenters like this will never say anything about taking any political action to fix anything. They're laser focused on what bad things will happen or what good things won't happen. Even if they meant well (most definitely don't) it would be a very harmful approach. All these users want is for us to give up. I will not. Fuck that.
