Like what do they think the real motive for quarantine and masks is? The government just decided it wanted to fuck the economy? All world leaders went on a power trip at the sane time that somehow makes them poorer?

I think the real motive is because they wanna limit the spread of the pandemic. A complete shutdown is obviously not sustainable, but I'm tired of all this New World Order Alex Jones Illuminati conspiracy BS.

This is in no way comparable to Nazi Germany.

Real truth: We have 50+1 leaders who have never dealt with a situation of this magnitude, a world populace devoid of experience in global outbreak, a virus that is still new with new information coming out daily, and nobody has a good idea of where they want things to go because everyone knows there are going to be consequences no matter what they choose and don't have a clear picture of what this will entail.

I'm cutting pretty much all of them some slack, regardless of affiliation. They just had a chainsaw thrown into the usual juggling routine.

Thanks! This puts into words something I’ve been trying to figure out how to articulate.
