Whenever people and the mainstream media talk about "The trauma of COVID" they always mean the lockdowns and not the... you know... millions of deaths.
Well I have trauma about the deaths. I have trauma about the way our society was manipulated into sacrificing a huge chunk of the population with a smile and a wave, and how we just don't talk about it.
This same society still expects you to be horrified by the violence of 9/11 or whatever when the US alone was experiencing a 9/11 level of death every day and the disease is still killing, we just don't bother recording the spread anymore. What the fuck is wrong with people?!
I literally get (for lack of a better word) triggered when people talk about how hard it was to have to have to wear a mask or to not get a haircut or some selfish bullshit. Or when they act as though their kids remote learning for a while ruined them or something. It's all so petty. They just don't give a shit. They'd kill millions for a haircut. It makes my heart sink, my eyes glaze and I start dissociating.
Imagine if this was the blitzkrieg, and instead of going to bomb shelters people were just like "I'm sick of hearing about these bombings, I'm just going to pretend they're not happening and leave it up to fate." And then the bomb shelters are all closed and even the people who still wanted to take shelter are left to fend for themselves. What madness would have that been if they had done that during WW2? Dragging people into the street to be bombed?
I don't care if you were sick of lockdowns or restrictions! Fighting a pandemic should have been like fighting a war, we should have been doing everything we could to survive!
I am scared of these people. These brainwashed puppets. These eugenicists. If they can do this, well... it makes me feel surrounded by monsters. Like I can't trust anyone.
It could be possible if we got our shit together and had real planning. The army could be mobilised in hazmat suits to provide public services during lockdowns if they really wanted. Sanitation points could be set up. Planners employed to manage it in the best way. Food and supply deliveries. Inform people why these things are nessisary and emphasise how fucking serious this situation is. Arrest and shame people who don't take it seriously like the selfish murderers they are. Bring the best minds together and fucking devise an efficient method to make it work.
If taken seriously it could be eradicated in a year or two.
I refuse to believe same society that landed on the moon over 50 years ago can't eradicate a virus.
We are never going to eradicate it with current science. This is an airborne, highly contagious, and sometimes asymptomatic virus. Once it spread to the general population, it was
grumbles furiously
Even more reason to hate that they let it spread
It was over before it began. Yes, millions of people died due to mismanagement, but once it took root there was no stopping it from becoming endemic globally.

I'm not sure Zero Covid was as far as China was willing to go. Keep in mind it made little sense for China to go all in on eradicating COVID if everyone else was gonna play plague rat.
If the world had been on board the result might have looked very different.
We don’t even need hazmat suits, just for everyone to agree to wear n95s. We got lucky with the severity of this virus. Imagine if it was the Spanish flu again, or something worse.
