    It isn't just the public that thinks this.

    What I always chuckle at are the gators people wear. I mean, that really isn't going to stop much...

    Think about it. If you knew 1000 people and 1 died, would you think it's the end of the world? That's the death rate we are talking about. Do we destroy our and our children's future for that?

    The Flu epidemic in 1918-1920 killed more people than have contracted COVID when the world's population was 1.8 billion vs 7.8 billion today. It killed 675000 people in the US in approximately 9 months. The US population was less than 1/3 of today's. A little rough math will tell you that the flu was 600% as devastating as COVID.

    The flu epidemic did not transform the nation, there is no reason COVID should.

    Here is the full WEF '2030 predictions' video to go along with that. For general edification of any doubters.

    The difference is MyFacePlace and InstaTweeter weren't around in 1918 nor was CNN and Fox blasting it in your face 24 hours a day. People got their news once a day if they were lucky by reading the newspaper. Probably once a week is more likely. Even radio wasn't big at that time, so news took far longer to spread.

    I also think people were a little less scared back then during the times when an infection could kill you just as easily as being shot in the head. People died all the time, sad to say, and I think they were less scared of the concept of death and less likely to freak out about it if it did happen.

    Spot on. It'll continue until the Global Reset has been achieved. They've finally figured out the pretext they can use to con the public into passively accepting massive illegal restrictions on their freedom: a "public health crisis." Everything but the large (and leftist compliant) corporations will be ruined. Then we're all eating out of their hands with .gov relief checks, picture "universal basic income" and their s$#tty government cheese health care plans forced on everyone, and earth becomes the hellhole for everyone but the few elites. The TV series "The Expanse", gives an idea of what that looks like.

    The cold war ends and everything is going to change. Not.

    911 happened and everything is going to change,. Not.

    Great financial crisis happens and everything is going to change. Not.

    And now this. Not.

    Things do change. But it’s usually not the black swan events that caused the change. Their long running technological changes that I’ve made the most impact. We lost our privacy after 911 not because of 911 but because there is the capacity and capability of broad surveillance.

    We get on with getting on. Vaccines and immunity will get this to levels that we will accept. We lose 15,000 To 100,000 per year to the flu- even if doubled, does it really make that much of a difference? Did you notice the difference between the low and high years in the past?

    The real shit hits The fan when evictions start back up.
    The Second Amendment ACKNOWLEDGES our right to own and bear arms that are in common use that can be used for lawful purposes. The arms can be restricted ONLY if subject to historical analogue from the founding era or is dangerous (unsafe) AND unusual.

    It's that simple.

    Some just got renewed here in WA. What I can't believe are the people who are telling the governor that he's not doing enough. That we need to be completely locked down and given money.

    This is WA after all...but still shocking.
    It is from the construction of underground FEMA camps. I can't say more because there a guy parked in front of house in an AMC Pacer. He is acting like he talking on the phone, but I know better.

    I have to sign off now & put my laptop in the microwave.

    Expect it to go on forever now that Diaperface is Gov-4-Life unless called up to a Cabinet post.

    No, they won't. Think "compliance mask." And "hostile compliance."

    If anyone actually cared about spread they would be handing out N95 masks EVERYWHERE like they do with needles for druggies, condoms, etc...
