    The only way to end the pandemic at this point is to lock everyone inside their homes for 1-2 months, any unhoused people get locked in one of the millions of vacant homes too (and get to keep them of course), mandatory vaccinations including holding down and injecting any fuckers that resist, only people allowed to leave home are TRULY essential workers like medical staff and supply line workers like truckers. Not stupid hit like gamestop or dunkin donuts. Pay everyone a weekly flat rate for staying indoors, include a bonus for willingly submitting to the vaccines. Have biweekly deliveries of rice and dried beans, canned goods, etc, and weekly deliveries of fresh produce and bread. Have a dedicated team of remote people to check in with everyone every few days. Anyone that tries to start shit gets put in solitary until quarantine is done.

        Well yeah of course which is why we are entirely fucked and the dumbest people on earth will bring the rest of us down with them which is why I now fully understand the tankie position like I was a fucking anarchist in January 2020 and now I am like stalin didn't go far enough and mao was right there really is consistently a solid 20-30% of the population at any given time that is 100% resistant to any change whatsoever and will violently oppose us and undermine us and they need to be fucking dealt withby any means necessary for the sake of the rest of us surviving this fucking nightmare
