/ot/ - off-topic

my real opinion is that the covid hoax was the greatest hoax in human history. it didn't impact me negatively in anyway except that I was forced to take an experimental jab by my tyrannical government for a virus that has a 99.97% survival rate lest I be fired from my job and forced to become a homeless streetwalker. Fuck the government and fuck all the fear mongering hoaxers who now claim that nothing ever happened and no one was ever threatened.

The covid hoax produced an endless amount of cows and milk. I don't even know who or where to begin. the entire thing was a fucking joke.

its funny that the least effected people THE LAPTOP CLASS were the biggest whingers of them all. Fuck the laptop class.

I don't mean this in a literal schizo way but looking back the whole thing feels like a satanic ritual where the old feasted on the young.

COVID was never a major threat to young people, we had lockdowns to protect the elderly. Cancer screenings and surgeries got delayed because all resources were redirected to vented seniors. Economy was destroyed, housing market destroyed, mental health destroyed, standard of living destroyed. And all we have to show for it is lower death toll for seniors. Absolutely no consideration was given to how lockdowns would affect young people or the economy, and if you brought up any concerns you were accused of wanting to kill Granny.

I feel like we traded the last slivers of hope for young people for an extra 5-10 years for seniors. INB4 you all call me a sociopath. It's not that I want elderly people to die I just don't understand why we prioritized elderly lives over literally everything else including the lives of young people.

>COVID was never a major threat to young people
My coworker’s mid-thirties aged husband died from COVID exacerbating a medical condition he was living with

it was fake and gay.

I think covid the respiratory virus and covid the meme/mind virus/institution/cult whatever you want to call it are two different things. So first off covid is definitely real and worse than the flu.
Okay that being said, the media and government response to it was so fucking weird from day one. The very asking of 'how worried should we be' when in a real plague with bodies in the streets nobody would be asking such a question. The deliberate inciting of panic when in a crisis you're meant to keep people calm. I live in Australia so I saw all the weird shit really up close and wasn't allowed to leave my house for 'non-essential' reasons for two years. All the weird back and forth on what we were supposed to do, the pivot from 'yeah it's a sterilizing vaccine' to 'uhh the vaccine was always just reducing your symptoms'. People getting fired from their job and coerced into getting the vaccine. The way every terminally online oversocialized person I know immediately made it their personality. So what I can say for sure is that it was definitely fucking weird and artificial. And covid the virus is absolutely not as bad as covid the way it was presented in the news media.

Now as for what I think it was, I disagree with others here that it was an attempt to tighten the net of societal control and give us all gay nanomachines. The government already has very tight control and surveillance over people. I think it was basically a meme that started from a real virus that got out of control and it basically started to live its own life to the point where they couldn't off-ramp it. Perhaps they were experimenting to see how docile the population was also.

I'm convinced my grandmother's dementia worsened more/quicker than it would've under normal non-quarantine circumstances and I feel upset that we weren't always allowed to be close with her during the last few years she was able to somewhat hold conversations. Standing on a ladder in front of her window while talking to her through the phone was a shitty experience. And I feel frustrated how I spent my uni years getting shitty education through zoom meetings when my practical leaning major doesn't suit itself for that whatsoever. No one in my circles was long term negatively affected by a Covid infection itself, including older relatives and family friends.

I'm still so fucking mad at these people it's hard not to alog.
>THIS IS THE LITERAL PLAGUE AND EVERYONE IN THE WORLD WILL DIE IF I LEAVE THE HOUSE EVER AGAIN (but no lockdowns for proles pls because I need Tim Hortons delivered to my door twice a day)

Reminder that the toinfoilers in the original covid threads warning others not to get vaccine were right.
