~The western world's one-size-fits-all response to the Covid - lockdowns, mandates, silencing of dissenting voices, assault on core liberties such as freedom of movement and freedom of worship - remains their template for the years ahead, as manifested in impending restraints such as "Net Zero", "fifteen-minute cities" and the World Health Organisation treaty. And, if you're minded to talk about any of that, the most effective assault has been on freedom of speech, where in the interests of "preventing misinformation" governments around the west are taking Covidstan's crushing of dissent to the next level. If you look at what happened to the authors of the Great Barrington Declaration, the plan next time - in Scotland, Ireland, Canada, France - is to pre-silence them, so you'll never hear about it.
Against all this we have the very very very modified limited hangout by government and media with regard to, say, modest concessions about the lasting emotional, physical and developmental damage to a generation of children - accompanied by the accountability dinner-theatre farce of Baroness Hallett's UK "public inquiry", which is designed to protect officialdom at all costs, so that they will be free to do it to us all over again. As Sean, a doctor, puts it in our comments section:
The cruel, savage, brutal, disgraceful, etc. policies directly contributed to the deaths of one immediate relative and an uncle. Don't forget dying alone with a mask on. The fallout is far from over, but tapering off. However, without a reckoning, it will happen again.
And, as I always say, half your neighbours - whether in Europe, North America, Australia - will be happy to swallow all the totalitarian bollocks all over again: lock me down once, shame on you; lock me down twice, shame on me.

“half your neighbours - whether in Europe, North America, Australia - will be happy to swallow all the totalitarian bollocks all over again: lock me down once, shame on you; lock me down twice, shame on me.”
Half your neighbors will be willing to put you in a camp or up against a wall.
Try to lock me and my family and see how that goes biden. It’s not going to work out for you.

Did a US government research project kill more people than the Holocaust?
Indeed. It makes a LOT of stuff make much more sense.
