A lot of people who opposed the wasteful way of life they saw others living WANTED COVID to be a cleanser of society. They LOVED knowing people were staying home. They LOVE seeing fuel prices through the roof. A lot of people were pre-disposed to embrace these impositions on others. They think they're saving the planet. They're not entirely wrong about the unsustainable way we've grown accustomed to living. The trouble is that the people who think the end justifies the means have no sustainable solutions to offer. Just hare-brained "We'll all drive electric cars, own nothing, and be happy." That's crazy talk, too.
Then of course, there were others who were afraid their role in the creation of COVID-19 would come to light, and many of them were also in position to profit enormously if the crisis were severe enough to remove all restraint on their profit-making potential.
Big corporations were deemed "essential" and could afford to hire an extra drone or two to ensure "mandate compliance." So big corporations loved the way things were going, by and large. There are many who don't care if the world crashes and burns, so long as they get THEIRS and can fly above the devastation.
Seen from a more historical perspective, maybe these forces that drove society off the rails were actually close to ideal, sub-lethal shocks to an increasingly dysfunctional, neo-fascist system that's untethered to reality. Think of the millions more people who no longer trust the government. That's 'natural immunity' to the blandishments of narcissistic collectivist cult leaders that are running most of our major institutions.
As a 60-year-old, who's been watching the growth of government and government power since the '70s, I'm actually more optimistic, now, than I was 20 years ago. We'll never turn things around (or at least change our course heading forward), without a critical mass of skeptics and critical thinkers. As the narratives veer farther and farther from experienced reality, more and more people are red-pilling or at least purple-pilling. We're approaching a tipping point. Narratives are still being astro-turfed by more coordination than I've ever seen, and the people will STILL jump on the bandwagon (Iraq, Afghanistan, Ukraine, COVID, Global Warming), but the tremendous successes - unprecedented successes - of the dog-wagging tail are attenuating MUCH more quickly than in prior generations.
How long did they keep Gulf of Tonkin going? Decades? Same for "sugar is good and fat is bad" lies. Many others. Sure, they can still pull off an October surprise every election cycle. Expect them to do the same again in a year and a half from now. But those hoaxes and narratives are lasting weeks or months, rather than decades. They're still keeping Democrats in power long past their welcome, but that very fact is only red/purple-pilling more people every cycle.
My only concern is will they burn it ALL down before relinquishing their hegemony? I'm worried about what we'll have left to work with after the inevitable collapse. And history teaches that the leaders who emerge after a collapse are always the bloodiest despots.
