    Yup, that cat's out of the bag unless we go back to 9/11 every day territory. Even then it's probably 50/50, with all the whining we saw the first time.

      It would be way fucking worse this time, because all the anti mask freaks would not only be triggered by the idea of a DEMOCRAT PRESIDENT making them do it, they're already primed against the idea of "never ending mask mandates" which would absolutely solidify the whole mythology in their worm infested brains.

      There's a pretty good chance we will have half a dozen or a dozen waves of covid, and all the vaccinated people get it multiple times over the next decade. It won't hit them very hard, but they'll keep reinfecting unvaxxed people, who will get worse and worse covid every 6-10 months until they die.

      The scariest part is what happens when Covid is kind of gone, but still lurking, and theres enough attention away from it that drug companies can start charging $500-1000 a shot, which just murders poor people for 5 years or so.

      I would be absolutely shocked if that happened. Half a million dead in a single year, that's more than the U.S. casualties of both world wars combined, and America is still doing about fuck all. If that didn't show the severity of the situtation to Americans, I don't think much else will. It seems like the people with any power to enforce a lockdown simply do not care.
