Thanks Sasha. I think you're right. When covid became the global obsession I started "studying" the 18/19' flu pandemic and more or less reached the same conclusion.

Thanks Sasha. I think you're right. When covid became the global obsession I started "studying" the 18/19' flu pandemic and more or less reached the same conclusion.
With covid, the speed of global coordination by means of technology allowed what I believe to be the true story of covid:
A "magic" trick.
The vast majority of people either were crippled by fear, trusted the government (could not fathom their government could "goodharm" them) and/or assumed the government/PHA's were too powerful (apathy) for anything to be done. This allowed them to marginalize the few who resisted and sideline voices of reason.
The added benefit is the de facto magic tricks ultimately become myth because of the same dynamics I point out above. AND because nobody wants to admit they fell for a magic trick that was so easy to identify. I also believe this is why it appeared that 90% of the public was "hypnotized".
Most would rather not deal with that at the expense of knowing what actually happened and therefore desiring accountability because that would force them to relive it. If this acknowledgement/acceptance doesn't happen then the average person will never see that the diabolical behavioral tactics deployed were appalling, which will lead to the biggest myth:
"MISTAKES WERE MADE"
I truly fear that the myth will persist and be recorded as such leading to the relinquishment of personal health sovereignty. Once that happens the magic tricks (no matter how obvious) will be much easier, due to people giving up their agency for the myth.
I'm at the point where I truly believe we will have a repeat because people essentially will self-hypnotize faced with similar circumstances (pandemic "crisis" or otherwise)
Ryan, sadly I agree with you my friend, here in Chicagoland we are still masking in hospitals and medical facilities most of them anyways, I've had 2 hip replacements in the last 10 months and 2 eye surgeries ,so I'm going to alot of doc and pys therapy visits. I always go in with out a mask but they always have one ready for ya! I protest a bit take the mask put it on under my chin. They usually don't say anything. As soon as I get in the exam room I take it off, doctor comes in w/mask, never tells me to put mine on. They KNOW, but they just go along with hospital rules for their own job security. I talk to employees about this absurdity same shit ,they don't seem do mind or even annoyed. This will probably happen again and the blue states will jump right back in fear mode. I think red state will call bullshit and stay free. "So you got that going for you, which is nice...I think. " (Caddyshack)
This trusting phenomenon was doubled in Australia - where we, the people, got used to State Support. Pensions for single mums, paid family leave, NDIS, medical care, all kinds of support. So if the government says "we're helping," people tended to believe.
Our State press, the Aussie-BC, was renowned for holding Truth to Power and bringing down scandals and corruptions worldwide - one of the finest state journalistic outlets in the world. So when the Aussie-BC turned to COVID - it was so simple, almost natural, for it to be accepted as the trusted media outlet that it always was.
I have to say it really frightened me when I saw that the AussieBC was lockstep with the rest of this BS. Then I knew that the world, as I knew it, was over.
